Our Services → Building Envelope
and Construction Practices
The buildings and homes we occupy must provide shelter from the
elements. Controlling indoor environments requires the building
envelope to effectively function. When any of our building envelope
systems fail the results can be building structure and building
product damage, poor indoor air quality and costly remediation.
Attention to detail on interior construction practices is also
a requirement for a sustainable building.
Common building envelope and construction problems/issues include:
- Poor stucco design and installation
- Window leakage
- Door leaks
- Roof leaks
- Site drainage concerns
- Below grade moisture intrusion
- Shower pan failure
- Incorrect vapor retarder placement or installation
- Foundation or concrete slab moisture emissions
- Building pressurization problems
- Poor paint and caulking
- Uncontrolled air leakage into the building or home
- Condensation on building components
- Odor problems
