Structural Preservation Systems (SPS) brings together a team of experienced professionals and craftsmen skilled in a range of services—from basic repairs to complex and multi-faceted projects. Our approach to building envelope repair projects involves a thorough review of the essential components that comprise a building—including wall systems, structural frames, windows, doors and foundations. A building envelope’s purpose is to provide protection from external elements, including moisture, air and temperature. Failures to any component of a building envelope can result in costly damage and deterioration. By working with design professionals and owners to examine the way a building was designed and constructed, evaluating existing conditions and understanding the repairs that have been made during the structure’s lifetime, we can help develop and implement the right maintenance, repair and protection strategies for your facilities. Our expertise and attention to detail makes us the ideal partner for all of your building envelope needs.
