Spencer Jackson
Founder and Principal Consultant, Jackson Envelope Consulting
Spencer founded Jackson Envelope Consulting in Charlotte, North Carolina, to close the gap between how buildings are drawn and how they hold up in wind and rain. His work sits between design and field performance: plan review, installation observation, field testing and forensic investigation of leaks.
He leads every JEC project and reviews every report before it goes out. Clients include owners, developers, HOA and condo boards, property managers, general contractors and architects, on multifamily, commercial, hospitality, public and residential buildings.
In the field he uses AAMA and ASTM water testing, electronic leak detection, infrared thermography from the ground and the air, and targeted test cuts, so findings come from testing rather than opinion.
- Charlotte, NCHome base, Suite 300 on Mallard Creek Road
- 19 states as JECPlus team experience before JEC in 41 states, Puerto Rico and Guam
