Roof inspections are important for a variety of reasons.  Many times a roof inspection is required prior to closing on commercial or residential real estate.  Residential roof inspections are different than commercial roof inspections.

The Building Envelope or Building Enclosure is comprised of all the components meant to stop building leaks. For example, the layers of materials that make up your exterior walls, window assemblies, doors, and roof are all parts of the Building Envelope.

We offer stucco inspection and building leak detection services for residential and commercial buildings using the latest technology and good, old fashioned common sense. We have been doing this for a very long time and we are good at it.

Construction litigation requires an experienced consultant to evaluate workmanship and design.  Our founder, Don Putnam, has served as a construction defect expert for over 35 years and as a consultant in over 100 roofing, building envelope, and water intrusion cases.

Why Hire a Consultant?

Roofs and building envelopes appear fairly simple once they have been installed. In fact, they are complex assemblies and there is a lot that can go wrong. Product manufacturers and industry reference guides provide specs, diagrams, and illustrations for proper construction. There are literally thousands of such ‘construction details’. However, history shows it requires considerable expertise to build them successfully. A qualified roof and building envelope consultant can help ensure proper design and proper installation.

As many residential and commercial building owners have learned, defective construction of roofs and building exteriors is quite common. Forensic analysis of building leaks and failed waterproofing requires a high level of expertise. The best forensic leak investigators are the ones with the most experience combined with good instincts. Our experience over the last 50+ years enables us to fine tune a scientific approach for leak detection. We work in scorching attics, dank basements, and moldy crawl spaces to gather factual evidence and test hypothesis so we can draw conclusions based on evidence rather than assumptions. This approach, combined with our professional ethics, allows us to deliver our services with a high level of confidence and pride.
