Every service below follows a recognized ASTM or AAMA protocol, fully documented with photos, data, and a written report you can act on — or put into evidence.
On-site air- and water-infiltration testing of installed windows, doors, storefront, and curtain wall.
Whether you're verifying new construction before closing out a punch list or investigating a reported leak, field testing measures how the installed assembly actually performs — not how it performed in the lab before shipping.
Systematic diagnosis when a building already leaks and nobody agrees on why.
Following the AAMA 511 forensic protocol, the investigation isolates the failure path step by step — recreating the leak under controlled conditions, then narrowing it to product, installation, or the surrounding wall design. The deliverable is a defensible causation finding, not a guess.
Testing, analysis, reports, and testimony for construction-defect matters.
From pre-suit evaluation to trial testimony — details on the Expert Witness page.
Standards guidance for manufacturers, architects, and contractors.
Years inside an accredited test lab means knowing exactly what a product will face at certification — and what a specification actually requires in the field.
Field water penetration under static air pressure
Field air leakage of installed windows & doors
Laboratory water penetration, uniform & cyclic
Field testing of newly installed fenestration & storefront
Forensic water-intrusion investigation protocol
