Building Envelope Consultant

LOOKING FOR: Retired Building Envelope Super or Inspector/PM | Part-time | $100/hr

WHO WE WANT

You understand how building envelopes actually perform not just installation steps, but why assemblies fail. You've built high-performance, diagnosed failures, or consulted on envelope details for years.

You can explain to an installer why the flashing sequence matters. Not "because code says so" because you can describe where the water goes when they get it wrong.

THE WORK

We build 3-4 story wood-frame multi-unit residential in Nova Scotia ( generally 90 mins within HRM ). Cold, wet climate. Envelope is where buildings fail here.

Spec translation: Review wall assemblies and details. Define exactly how WRB, air barrier, windows, and penetrations should be executed. Visual, demonstrable, plain language.

Crew briefing: Meet with the actual installers before they start. Walk through the details. Show them what you expect. Answer questions. No excuses later.

Certification: Verify work meets the standard you set. Your sign-off unlocks payment. If it's wrong, you say what's wrong and how to fix it.

2-5 visits/month during envelope phases. Flexible scheduling.

THE MONEY

$100/hour on site 1.5 hour minimum $150 bonus when work passes first time after your crew briefing
