Join the Crew + Get Access NowYou’ve Seen Firestop Get Screwed Up.
Let’s Talk About It.
Does firestop feel like a guessing game? Stop guessing and join us for regular meet ups where you get to ask any question you want. The answers get recoded and become part of our library, so when you join you get the hours of past content to learn from.
Specs get vague. Installs go sideways. Inspections feel like a moving target.
And somehow, you're still expected to “figure it out.”
That’s exactly why Build Better Crew exists.
This REGULAR meetup gives you expert insights and field-tested answers to the questions that actually matter. Email your questions in advance so we can pull together a clear discussion. it might include specific details or code sections, whatever your question we will get you answers and share our resources.
Because better firestop happens when you’ve got the right information — and the right crew.
