Restore Fire Protection To Structural Steel
Structural steel beams and ceiling slabs in many commercial buildings, factories, and industrial units are commonly protected using vermiculite fireproofing cement.
This specialised fire-resistant coating plays a critical role in slowing heat transfer during a fire, safeguarding the building's structural integrity when it matters most.
Over time, however, the vermiculite layer can crack, deteriorate, or sustain damage — particularly during reinstatement works, renovation projects, or incidents involving water seepage.
Our team delivers professional vermiculite fireproofing cement repair services across Singapore, restoring damaged fire-resistant coatings safely, thoroughly, and to the required standard.
Step 1: Removal of Loose or Damage Material
Any compromised or deteriorated vermiculite sections are carefully stripped away to reveal a clean, stable base surface — ensuring the new fireproofing material achieves a strong and lasting bond.
Step 2: Surface Preparation
Prior to applying any new coating, all structural steel surfaces are thoroughly cleaned, loose debris is cleared away, and the substrate is properly conditioned for adhesion. This critical preparation step directly contributes to the long-term durability and performance of the finished coating.

Step 3: Reapplication of Vermiculite Fireproofing
Fresh vermiculite-based fireproof coating is then applied across all affected areas, including structural steel beams, columns, and ceiling slab surfaces. Each application is carefully carried out to achieve the appropriate thickness and full coverage throughout.
Step 4: Surface Finishing and Inspection
Once the repair work is complete, every treated area undergoes a thorough inspection to verify proper coverage, adequate bonding, and consistent fireproof layer thickness across the surface. This final step ensures the structure's fire protection function is fully and reliably restored.
