Envelope Renewal
From hands-on investigation and analysis to repair or restoration for any material or building type, we can help you meet all your building enclosure renewal needs.
Here's how
We've worked on all types of enclosures – from modern curtain walls and mid-century hybrid construction to prewar composite walls and ornate historic structures. We bring our decades of expertise to all your project needs: structural, masonry, waterproofing, windows, roofing, plazas and sidewalks.
We evaluate the root causes of performance failures and develop solutions that meet the building’s needs and your budget. We approach projects holistically: we solve structural and waterproofing deficiencies while tackling the crucial energy performance challenges. We assist you in navigating codes and local agency review processes. We develop phasing schemes to minimize impacts on building and site accessibility.
