If you are building a new home or having an addition built there can be ton of information to interpret. Don't let properly insulating the envelope of your new Maryland home get lost in the shuffle. Get a third party opinion that can work with you and your builder to get it right. | Qualifications for Columbia, MD Whether it is to check existing insulation conditions in a Columbia home (typically not included in a home inspection), or to make sure that all connections to the outside are sealed before any finishing work is complete in a new Columbia construction project, a certified Building Analyst (BA) can evaluate uncontrolled air leakage into and out of a home and identify heating and cooling problems that lead to high bills and uncomfortable living spaces. | Phone Consultation - Local Company A great first step to deciding if we are a good fit for what you need is to set up an initial phone consultation. Phone consultations usually take about fifteen minutes and they provide an opportunity to determine if a consultation framework can be established that will ultimately provide a benefit to the homeowner based on their individual needs. If yes, a formal proposal will be written and an initial visit can be set, if necessary. |
