Eliminating Risk at Every Transition
Independent building envelope consulting, testing, and forensic services focused on performance, durability, and water intrusion risk—from design through construction.
Jackson Envelope Consulting, LLC | Building Envelope Consulting, Testing & Forensic Services
Independent, Practical, and Field-Proven
Most building failures happen at interfaces, transitions, and penetrations—not in the middle of assemblies.
We focus on what often gets overlooked: constructability, moisture management, and performance of real-world conditions.
By identifying risks early, we help teams avoid costly rework, water intrusion, and litigation.
Expertise for every stage of the building life-cycle.
In the world of building envelopes, a "small" detail at a window head or a roof-to-wall transition is never actually small. Whether you are breaking ground or managing a 20-year-old asset, our goal is to eliminate the guesswork and ensure your structure performs exactly as intended.
The New Build
"I'm starting a new project."
You need to ensure the design is buildable and the field execution is flawless.
The Problem Child
"I have a building with issues."
You’re dealing with active leaks, air gaps, or mysterious moisture intrusion.
The Acquisition
"I’m evaluating a property."
You need a technical deep dive into the building’s condition before closing.
Technical Services That Make Your Building Perform
-
Identify enclosure risks early to reduce constructability issues and long-term performance failures.
-
Verify installations align with design intent, detailing, and project-specific requirements during critical enclosure milestones.
-
Determine the root causes of water intrusion, identify contributing factors, and provide guidance for remediation and long-term durability.
-
Detect concealed moisture, insulation deficiencies, and air leakage using non-invasive infrared technology.
The JEC Approach
Building envelope performance isn’t a luxury—it’s the baseline. At JEC, we don’t deal in "generic details" or assumptions. We focus on the high-risk reality of the jobsite: the 2-inch gaps, the complex transitions, and the trade handoffs where most buildings actually fail.
Our firm was built to bridge the gap between high-level engineering and boots-on-the-ground execution. With a diverse background rooted in forensic investigation and field diagnostics, our approach is defined by technical rigor and a refusal to accept the "standard practice" if it doesn't work in the real world.
Whether we are reviewing a design set before the first shovel hits the dirt or diagnosing a chronic leak in an occupied high-rise, our mission is the same: Zero Failures. We act as an independent third-party partner, providing the objective data needed to keep a project on track and out of litigation.
