History

On April 1st, 1987 National Fire Protection began with a vision of becoming the premier fire protection contractor in the Washington Metropolitan area. Despite starting out with only a handful of staff, NFP successfully took on some of the largest and most technically challenging projects throughout the 90’s. From this foundation, NFP expanded its reach into new geographic regions in the country throughout the new millennium: Florida in 2007, Texas in 2012, New Orleans in 2013, and Georgia in 2015.  Due to the vision and leadership of our company, NFP emerged as the large and well-respected Fire Protection entity we are today. ​

We take great pride in the marquee contract work we have performed throughout our history. The level of professional pride in our work speaks for itself. We can’t, however, forget all the other important work that has allowed us to grow in terms of new customers and strategic partnerships, new geographic markets, expanded tenant contract emphasis, the expansion of our service/inspection/repair business, and now our turn-key fire alarm capacity. All of this is truly a byproduct of the hard work and dedication to this company from our extraordinarily talented team.

In late 2019 National Fire Protection was purchased by the Rommel organization. Under this new ownership, we have continued delivering the high-caliber design, installation, and service/inspection work we’re known for. We have a re-energized momentum and a team of incredibly talented people dedicated to our success.

In early 2024 we rebranded and changed our name to Gulf Coast Fire Protection, LLC.
