Consulting and Third Party Inspections

Beyond code compliance for occupancy, this package service includes consulting based on the goals of the project.  These could include energy efficiency, value engineering [material or system cost comparison *not sure which of these sounds better], or preventative site assessments.  Our 3^rd party inspections can advise on the progress toward the project’s goals.  The inspections can also flag any potential issues that may cause testing failures and costly delays.

Utility Rebates

For some projects, we can also assist with utility rebates through the MassSave New Construction Program.
