Certifications

The credentials behind the bid.

A licensed California general contractor, a certified applicator under the Henkel and LOCTITE Tyfo system, and a trained installer of Polymer Nation coatings. The paperwork is part of the work — every bid stands on a license and a system the design references.

What we hold

Three credentials, one accountable contractor.

Each one does a specific job on your project: a license that can hold the contract, a system certification that ties field work to the engineer’s drawings, and product training that grounds coatings selection in real data sheets.

CSLB B1 General Building Contractor License #960653

CA B1 #960653California Contractors State License Board

What this means for your project

The license backs the bid. Salyers can hold a prime contract on multi-trade scopes, sub to a GC under their prime, or carry a project that requires coordination across structural and coatings work in one mobilization. Issued 2011, in good standing.

Henkel / LOCTITE Tyfo Certified Applicator

ICC-ES ESR-2103ICC Evaluation Service

What this means for your project

The work is installed under the system the design references. The engineer of record's drawings, the manufacturer's application drawings, and the installer's documentation form a coherent paper trail for the building official, the owner, and the warranty path. The Tyfo system is held by Henkel Corporation dba Fyfe.

Polymer Nation Trained Installer

Polymer Nation

What this means for your project

System selection is grounded in the actual product line. The bid lists specific Polymer Nation products and references their data sheets. Field execution follows the manufacturer's published method, not a generic flooring trade approach. Training was completed in person at Polymer Nation's Chicago location.

Standards we build to

The references behind the design and the install.

Seismic FRP work is engineered and installed per these published standards. We don’t author the structural design — that belongs to the engineer of record — but the installation, documentation, and product all answer to the same references.
