MFC Services For Builders
Waterproofing Design and Details
MFC has a combined 130 years of construction experience evaluating damaged buildings. From inspecting and repairing over 750 installations that failed, we know what works. We are waterproofing specialists who come on site and design the custom details you need to build those challenging assemblies. We also offer on site crew training for complex installations so your team’s knowledge base grows. Our goal: No call backs.
For Designers:
Don’t let waterproofing complexities stop you from creating the design you envision. We can add the custom details, allowing you to focus on the creative elements. Let us be part of your team so the finished product is outstanding.
Investigative Testing
Are you at a remodel job site and found rot? Need an expert opinion as to what caused it? MFC will do investigative testing to discover the possible source of water damage that led to the rot. We also have specialized diagnostic equipment on hand to help determine the extent of the problem. You then could use our results to relay to the owners when discussing your scope of work.
Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)
When the Owner/Builder or General/Subcontractor relationship is not working as it should, projects can run off course. In the middle of construction, if trust has broken down, MFC can get the project back on track. We have experience side-stepping the blame game, getting to the heart of the issue, and designing a fix that works. We can also come on site and be the Neutral “voice of reason,” able to communicate with all parties to work out a resolution. MFC’s Arbitrators, Mediators, and Neutral Experts will work to find common ground and a solution that is fair for all.
MFC Services For Owners

We save you money by avoiding costly mistakes and expensive re-work. We assure your builder’s craftsmanship is top quality and built to last.

MFC provides custom details, correct sequencing and timing, as well as excellent communication with each building professional involved, to be sure all phases of construction are built correctly.
Construction Advice, Inspections, Estimating and Forensic Testing
Water is seeping in around a window. A basement smells musty. The two year-old deck is leaking into the kitchen ceiling. When something goes wrong with a building, we know the science of testing failing structures. We inspect and test, then design a fix. We document our process in order to preserve an accurate record. We figure out the problem and the fix, giving you peace of mind.
Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR)
When the Owner/Builder relationship is not working as it should, projects can run off course. In the middle or end of construction, if trust has broken down, MFC can get your project back on track. We have experience helping people side step the blame game, to get to the heart of the issue and design a fix that works. We’ll come on site and be the Neutral “voice of reason,” able to communicate with all parties to work out a resolution.
