Simply put, we are solvers and preventers of almost any building envelope problem.

We work closely with owners, architects, engineers and builders to prevent future problems during the design and construction phases. No matter where we work, GCI consultants deliver prompt, attentive service and work to save our clients’ money – often far in excess of our own fees. We treat our customers’ projects as if they were our own. Our goal is to provide superior envelope performance and peace of mind in a cost-effective manner.
