Specification is a long-term cost decision disguised as a short-term one. Here's how we assess material value across a building's life.
The cheapest compliant product is rarely the cheapest outcome. Envelope, roofing and waterproofing choices drive both energy performance and the maintenance bill for decades.
We evaluate every specification against three numbers: installed cost, expected service life, and the cost of failure in place.
Where a premium product cannot justify itself on those three, we don't specify it.
