Healthy From Day One Guidance from plans to final testing
What It Is
Building Science Isn't a Finish Line. It's a Foundation.
Most people think about building performance after something goes wrong. Healthy home consulting is the alternative to that story.
It brings a building science expert into your project at the beginning, before decisions are locked in, before materials are specified, and before the first nail is driven, so performance and health are designed in, not retrofitted.
AJ works as a building science consultant and project advocate. He's not there to replace your architect or contractor. He's there to make their work better.

Who This Is For
Two Types of Clients Who Benefit Most
The Major Renovation Owner
Your family has been made sick by your current home, and you want a building science specialist overseeing the performance aspects of the project.
Failed Attic Encapsulation
This attic encapsulation illustrates the consequences of ignorance, incompetence, and unskilled labor, resulting in an unsafe, uncomfortable, moisture-ridden environment. It emphasizes the importance of proper construction practices for maintaining a healthy home.
Attic Reconstruction
Once a neglected and troublesome area, the attic has been reconstructed into a symbol of exceptional quality and attention to detail. Using ACCBP's specialized craftsmanship, longstanding moisture intrusion and microbial contamination issues were addressed to create a well-controlled, well-insulated space that prioritizes safety, health, comfort, and efficiency.
Why This Matters
The Conversation Most Builders Will Never Start
The design decisions made before construction begins determine most of the building's lifetime performance. Envelope strategy, mechanical sizing, moisture management, and ventilation are specifications that need to be established in design, verified during construction, and confirmed at completion.
AJ has seen what happens when that process is skipped: moisture inside walls, mold behind finishes, and HVAC systems that run constantly and never control humidity.
The best time to address building science is before the first nail is driven, not after the drywall is up and the problems are hidden.
