Firestop product focus
ONE SPECIALTY. TWO WAYS TO MAKE IT YOURS.
ADD TO YOUR NEXT QUOTE. OR WRITE YOUR FIRST ONE.
Firestopping can be a value-add for the jobs you already bid—or a focused way into contracting. Wayne teaches both sides: the work itself and how to build a business around it.
FOR EXISTING TRADES
Same customer. More on the quote.
Painters, drywallers, plumbers, electricians: you already have customers and projects in motion. Learn to identify firestopping needs and price them as a defined, paid scope instead of passing that work to someone else.
YOUR NEXT PROPOSAL
Your existing trade
Original scope
Firestopping
Additional paid scope
One less contractor for your customer to coordinate. One more service you can sell.
FOR FIRST-TIME CONTRACTORS
A foot in the door. A business of your own.
You don’t need to offer every trade to be useful to a general contractor. Learn who buys firestopping, how to approach them, and how to start with a manageable scope you’re qualified to deliver.
Get in front of general contractors and established trades.
Offer a clear scope and put together a professional quote.
Deliver well and build relationships that can lead to repeat work.
Not just how to apply a product. How to get the conversation—and the quote—started.
PUT YOUR NEXT OPPORTUNITY IN NUMBERS.
SAME CUSTOMERS. WHAT COULD YOU ADD?
Start with your average invoice. Choose how many jobs could include firestopping. Then drag the bucket to see what that additional scope could mean for your business.

POTENTIAL EXTRA REVENUE / MONTH
From 4 firestop jobs a month. Before costs.
Over 12 months at this pace
The numbers are a starting point. Wayne helps you build the plan behind them.
A scenario, not an earnings promise. Example settings are not typical results or pricing advice. Amounts are in USD, rounded to the nearest dollar, and show additional revenue—not profit. Materials, labor, rentals, overhead, and taxes are not deducted. Annual totals assume the same activity for 12 months. Price actual work from its scope and costs; only undertake work you are qualified to deliver.
Your scenario adds $750 per invoice, $3,000 per month, and $36,000 over twelve months, before costs.
START LEAN. BUILD FROM THERE.
You don’t need to buy a shop full of equipment.
For suitable spray-applied work, the equipment-and-materials starting point can be this simple. Wayne helps you figure out what to rent, what to buy, and what your first job actually needs.
An equipment-and-materials example, not a complete startup budget. Confirm rental availability and permitted use, pump/product compatibility, the listed system, and current Hilti instructions. Material quantities, PPE, training, licensing, insurance, and other costs depend on your job and location.
YOUR CURRENT TRADE. YOUR NEXT OPPORTUNITY.

MEET YOUR GUIDE. NOT ANOTHER GURU.
A BUSINESS BUILT IN THE REAL WORLD. A LIFE BUILT AROUND IT.
Wayne spent more than 40 years in contracting. He made millions in the trade, raised three successful sons alongside his wife, and learned a thing or two about building something that lasts.
Now he’s passing on the practical knowledge behind it: how to understand the work, make sound business decisions, and avoid learning every lesson the expensive way.
Contracting experience, not classroom theory
Personal guidance, not a faceless course portal

Wayne’s experience is his own. It is not a promise of your earnings or results.
