​

WAP offers various scales of evaluation, including:

  • Capital Planning for major building components, condominiums, or entire properties.

  • Leakage investigation and water testing to source water intrusion through the building envelope.

  • IR Thermal Scans identify air leakage and water within the building envelope.

The bid documents include:

  • Contracts;

  • Scope of Work;

The bid documents are sent out to a wide range of Contractors for tendering to ensure competitive pricing. The smaller repair projects can alternatively be sent to one of the Building Owners' trusted Contractors for a quote.

CLIENTS

“Allen provided the level of expertise that we needed to complete the roof restoration project at the Scarboro Golf and Country Club.  With Allen’s expertise we were able to ensure the roofing contractor carried out the installation to the highest of standards. He was diligent and prepared to address any and all deficiencies with the contractor, prepared comprehensive progress and deficiency reports and gave the club a big sense of comfort with this complicated and important project. Allen is completely reliable, professional and a real pleasure to work with. I have no hesitation in recommending him. The project finished on time and on budget.”
