Construction Defects
Through Building Science
wait.. there is science to this?
Construction defects are not just superficial issues; they are often rooted in deeper design flaws and missteps during the building process. One of the most telling indicators of these defects is water and moisture intrusion, which can lead to dry rot and mold growth. Left unaddressed, these issues compromise the structural integrity and long-term durability of a home or building, reducing its value and, in some cases, posing risks to occupants' health and safety.
Clearcut’s commitment to building science ensures that every aspect of construction, from the materials we use to the techniques we employ, is designed to withstand the elements and provide long-term protection. By focusing on the science behind construction, we create exterior systems that are resilient, integrated, and built to last.
At the heart of these problems is a failure to properly understand and apply building science principles. Factors like poor workmanship, substandard materials, and inadequate waterproofing all point to a lack of foresight in managing the building’s exterior envelope. Over the past 15 years, these defects have become widespread, but they are avoidable with the right approach.
