General Contractors and Construction Managers

Can it be built? Will it be weather tight? How fast can it be done? These are some of the key questions that concern GCs and CMs as they look at the building enclosure. We work quickly to resolve issues and assure solid subcontractor performance during construction of wall and glazing systems.

HAI can make recommendations to adjust the design, review bidding for technical compliance, review submittals, and observe field activities to assure proper enclosure installation. When HAI is involved, many of our contractor clients see dramatic reductions in callbacks and problems.

As General Contractors and Construction Managers take projects At-Risk or through Design-Build, they are looking for ways to limit their liability. Heitmann & Associates have developed a suite of services that do exactly that. Through our peer reviews of the design and subcontractor submittals, we can virtually eliminate enclosure built-in flaws, defects and omissions with emphasis on water infiltration, system performance and system interface issues.
