Green Building Consulting
Few designers and contractors have mastered green building rating systems - and even fewer have a deep understanding of healthy buildings or take a whole-building systems approach to smart design. green building consulting addresses important issues such as controlling moisture and mold, allergens, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and electromagnetic radiation (EMF), are often neglected during design and construction, when proactive mitigation efforts are easiest and most affordable. We streamline the green building rating process (e.g., LEED or GreenPoint Rated and BECx)
