Building Envelope Condition Survey

When working on a consultative basis, MPS will usually provide a building owner with a Building Envelope Condition Survey, one of the most important investments a facility owner can make in regards to maximizing the long-term value of their investment. As part of a condition survey, MPS utilizes today’s most advanced diagnostic procedures to determine sources of water intrusion, metal corrosion, and material disintegration. Surveys may include field inspection and documentation of conditions, rigging, probe extraction and infill, laboratory analysis, prototype repairs, and pre- and post-water repair testing.
