Repair Monitoring - A customized EIFS Repair Protocol provides guidelines from a third party inspector for monitoring moisture damage repairs  

Damaged Structural Framing and Wet Insulation Exposed Behind Damaged SheathingOnce the inspection report has been delivered to the client and a qualified repair contractor has been engaged, repairs can commence.

There is however, one more step that many building owners/managers have chosen to take in order to ensure that the repairs are completed in a manner consistent with manufacturer’s recommended details and/or EIFS industry standards.

EnviroSpec, Inc.’s repair monitoring program not only provides “peace of mind” for the client, it also assists property managers and/or homeowner association officers and other board members in fulfilling their fiduciary responsibility by providing written documentation of said repairs from an independent third-party.   

We provide all of our clients with a customized “Repair Protocol” based on the findings of our inspection. This document can be used by the client when requesting repair bids and provides a guideline for the minimum standards required for a successful repair. 

Another key element to our repair monitoring program is that all site visits are randomly scheduled. This allows our inspectors to observe “real working” conditions. Each site visit is photo documented for inclusion in a final report. In most cases we are not contracted to be the “Project Manager”, therefore, to supplement our site visits we require that all repairs also be photo-documented at the critical stages by the repair contractor. This additional documentation is critical to ensure that repairs are in conformance with the standards outlined above.

Any “problems” observed at the time of inspection are documented and are expected to be corrected along with photo and written documentation of corrective action by the contractor prior to our next site visit. The frequency and fees for these site visits are determined by the scope of work to be performed. Additionally, every attempt is made to maintain an open line of communication with the repair contractor throughout the repair process. This helps to avoid redundant site visits.

Upon completion of the repairs, EnviroSpec, Inc. will submit a narrative and photographic report to the client for their records.
