BUILDING SCIENCE & FORENSICS

For over 20 years we have been involved in building forensics

 
From Baton Rouge to New York City, we have investigated
and provided solutions to make a building healthy again.

99% of the time we are contacted about facility problems, it is about an existing building.

Let us help you in the design phase of your project so you don't run into costly problems down the road. In fact, we can help design a building that will ultimately save you money.

From energy modeling, to building envelope testing, we employ methods that make buildings, safer, more efficient, and better for its occupants and the environment.

Our trusted expertise has been engaged in litigation as expert witnesses for our ability to identify why buildings fail. 

But we also know how to prevent buildings from failing and how to remediate them as well.

What are building science and building forensics?

  • Determining the cause of excessive moisture and energy waste
  • Thermographic imaging to analyze a building's leakage and efficiency
  • Energy modeling to make buildings more efficient
  • Review of architectural design documents to determine their contribution to problems 
  • Sampling of all kinds to identify problems whether it be volatile organic compounds, mold, asbestos, lead, or any other substance or vapor that is making your building sick
  • Developing solutions to correct the problem and prevent it from occurring again
