Third-Party Design Review and Consulting Services
Allana Buick & Bers, Inc. (ABB) provides independent third-party design review and consulting services for new construction projects. Our multidisciplinary team evaluates construction drawings, specifications, material selections, and building enclosure details to identify potential performance concerns, coordination gaps, and constructability issues before construction.
ABB’s reviews focus on water intrusion, air infiltration, condensation, thermal performance, material compatibility, and long-term durability. Our findings are documented in a report with observations and recommendations for consideration by the project design team.
