Building Enclosure Commissioning (BECx)

A full suite of BECx services that delivers efficient, durable, code-compliant envelopes — from OPR development through post-occupancy lessons-learned. Design review, submittal review, field observations, compliance verification, and final airtightness testing.

Why work with GMEC?

We are a multi-disciplined practice focused entirely on the performance of building enclosures.

Based in Vermont

We're local to the Green Mountains, familiar with the Northeast climate and building stock, and comfortable working anywhere from a tiny house in Lincoln to a commercial building in Burlington.

Independent & neutral

We don't sell products or favor manufacturers. Our recommendations are based on performance and code — not vendor relationships.

Full-lifecycle coverage

Design review, construction-phase diagnostics, final verification, and long-term monitoring — one consultant across the whole project.

Clear, actionable reporting

Our deliverables are written so owners, architects, and code officials can all act on them. No boilerplate reports, no fluff.

Let's talk about your project

Commissioning, a one-off test, a monitoring install, or just a second opinion — reach out and we'll figure out whether we're a fit.
