Exterior Building Restoration

Exterior Restoration focuses on the repair and replacement of various elements of the exterior envelope of a building. The exterior envelope of a building includes everything that separates the interior of a building from the outdoor environment. These building assemblies, which consist of numerous integrated components, vary greatly in terms of materials and degree of technical complexity. Our knowledgeable and professional staff can manage the comprehensive requirements necessary to restore function and performance of the building envelope. SBG has extensive experience in the investigation and renovation of building envelopes and structural systems.

Leak Investigation & Repair

SBG will assist in determining the sources of water infiltration through hands-on and visual inspections using a combination of infrared moisture testing and standard methods of probes and water tests.

In-House Testing Techniques

  • The use of infrared imaging to identify thermal anomalies (temperature variations) that result in moisture compromised insulation.
  • The use of roof and wall moisture scanners and moisture meters to perform impedance testing which identifies the relative moisture content of the material.
  • Incorporating the use of electronic leak detection to identify the location of water infiltration.
  • Emergency Response Team
  • We offer an emergency response team for all your maintenance needs. SBG has technicians on call, day or night. These teams have the training and equipment to help with emergency water leaks and damage repair.

General Construction

SBG is an experienced professional construction company. We contract for the new construction of an entire building or project, rather than a portion of the work. The general contractor is the primary point of responsibility for controlling construction costs and meeting the project schedule. As the general contractor, SBG hires subcontractors to perform specific portions of the project (electricians, plumbers, etc.), oversees all work, and is responsible for payment to the subcontractors.
