Building Envelope & Moisture Inspection in British Columbia
Find where water gets through walls, windows and cladding.
What is building envelope & moisture inspection?
The building envelope is everything that keeps weather out — cladding, windows, flashing, sealants and roofing. In BC's rain-driven climate, envelope failures cause the costly 'leaky condo' damage strata corporations dread. Our envelope inspections use infrared, moisture mapping and water testing to find where water is entering before it rots the structure.
