Applied Coatings

What Applied Coatings does

Applied Coatings, LLC. is a specialty trade contractor founded in 2014 and headquartered in West Winfield, New York, providing fireproofing, firestopping, spray insulation, air barrier, waterproofing, and spray-on acoustic insulation services to commercial, institutional, and residential construction projects. The company operates as a certified installer for major manufacturers including ISOLATEK International/CAFCO, Hilti, ICC, MONOGLASS, Grace Monokote, and Carboline/Southwest Fireproofing, allowing it to deliver the full range of Sprayed Fire-Resistive Materials (dry fiber-based and wet cementitious), Intumescent Fire-Resistive Materials, and rigid board fireproofing systems that comply with Underwriters' Laboratories (UL) designs and meet 1-hour to 4-hour fire ratings. Its customer base spans general contractors, facilities managers, building owners, and architects, with a project portfolio concentrated in New York State and extending into Pennsylvania and Massachusetts, serving healthcare systems (Bassett, Albany Med, Arnot-Ogden, River, Guthrie, multiple VA hospitals), higher education (SUNY, Syracuse, Binghamton, Colgate, Marist, Bard, Utica City School District), government and military (West Point, NY State Office Campus, Elmira Correctional), and large retail (Crossgates Mall, Destiny USA).

The company earns revenue on a project-by-project basis through competitive bidding on construction contracts, with pricing determined per project based on scope, materials, labor, and complexity — there are no standard pricing tiers, no recurring or subscription revenue, and no public disclosure of pricing. Distribution is regional and direct: Applied Coatings bids as a subcontractor to general contractors and directly to building owners in the Northeast, supplemented by referral-driven demand from facilities managers and architects. Marketing is minimal, relying on a professional website showcasing past projects and certifications, plus direct phone and email contact with a project manager/estimator. The firm also holds subcontracted trade capabilities — spray polyurethane foam, loose fill insulation, and air barrier systems — enabling it to serve as a general contractor for specialty work packages. In February 2026, Applied Coatings was acquired alongside Upstate Spray Foam by TopBuild Corp. (NYSE: BLD), a national installation and specialty distribution platform; the two acquired businesses together generated approximately $20 million in annual revenue.
