Ogilvie Fire Protection has launched a dedicated taping & jointing team!
August 2026
The team offers a full taping and jointing service, machine and hand, for shopfitters, joiners and contractors across Scotland and the North of England. It is led by Paul Ogilvie, who has been taping and jointing for more than 25 years, with a skilled crew working to one consistent standard.
The service runs on the same discipline as our fire protection work. Every job follows a documented, ISO9001 quality system, carried out by one accountable team and checked before handover. In fire protection, work that is fitted poorly looks the same as work fitted properly, right up until the day it is tested. We bring that standard to finishing, where a poor joint shows the moment the decorators arrive.
That is the problem we are built to solve. Taping and jointing sits near the end of the programme, so when it snags or slips it holds up decoration, delays handover and lands on your reputation. Our team delivers decoration-ready joints, first time, on programme, with no snag list to chase afterwards.
It works two ways. If you are a shopfitter or joiner who needs the finishing done right, we take the package off your hands and hand it back clean. If you are a drywall or finishing firm with more work than labour, we are a partner you can pass a package to and trust it comes back to standard.
"We have run taping and jointing to a fire protection standard for years," said Paul Ogilvie, Managing Director. "Now we are offering it as a service in its own right. Same crew, same standard, whether it is your job or ours."
