Polaris Fire Protection Inc

What Polaris Fire Protection Inc does

Polaris Fire Protection Inc is a full-service fire sprinkler contractor founded in 2006 and headquartered in Plantation, Florida (Fort Lauderdale area). The company designs, engineers, installs, services, and inspects fire suppression systems for high-rise residential, commercial, industrial, and retail buildings across Florida and the Mid-Atlantic region (Maryland, DC, Virginia). Its core technology stack is conventional for the construction industry: AutoCAD design, 3D BIM coordination, in-house hydraulic calculations, and shop drawings, with no proprietary software product.

Polaris operates a vertically integrated service model spanning the full project lifecycle, from estimating and design through new installation, repair, and recurring inspections/maintenance. The firm bids on construction projects as a subcontractor to general contractors and engages directly with building owners and developers, targeting high-rise, commercial, industrial, and retail segments as well as government, military, hospitality, healthcare, and institutional facilities. Notable project credentials include Hard Rock Stadium, Grand Hyatt Miami Beach, Ritz Carlton Sunny Isles, Waldorf Astoria Residences, Nellis Air Force Base, and George Mason University.

Revenue is generated through two streams: (1) project-based installation contracts won via competitive bidding on new construction, and (2) recurring service, inspection, and maintenance revenue from the installed base of fire sprinkler systems, supported by 24/7 emergency response capability. The company is privately held and founder-operated, with no disclosed funding rounds, M&A activity, parent company, or external investors in the source data. Marketing is primarily direct, via website, project portfolio, and referral-based relationships with general contractors across the Eastern United States.
