Architectural Services firms are multi-disciplinary teams with expertise in many areas of building science. Many builders today are asking clients to hire a Quality Control Specialist during the design and development stage of home building to provide an opportunity for a peer-review of construction documents.  This helps ensures that no critical details are overlooked by the builder or architect that may lead to failure in the home's comfort, health, or energy systems.
