At B & W Contractors, Inc., we understand that the building envelope is crucial to the overall performance, efficiency, and comfort of your property. Our specialized Building Envelope Scans & Reports leverage cutting-edge infrared thermography technology to assess the integrity and efficiency of your building’s exterior. By identifying hidden issues such as air leaks, moisture intrusion, and thermal imbalances, we empower you to make informed decisions regarding the maintenance and improvement of your building envelope.
The building envelope serves as the first line of defense against environmental elements, and issues within it can lead to significant energy loss, increased utility costs, and potential structural damage. Our infrared thermography technology provides a non-invasive method to evaluate this critical component, enabling us to detect areas of concern without disrupting the building’s function or aesthetics. By visualizing temperature variations across surfaces, we can accurately pinpoint places that require attention.
Servicing both commercial and residential buildings, we offer comprehensive reports detailing our findings and recommending actionable steps to enhance your building’s performance and longevity.
