This may be the right service if your project:
Send the drawings and assembly details you already have. We'll review what's available, confirm what needs to be checked and provide a fixed quote or clear next steps.
Wall or roof build-ups, material layers, insulation, membrane details, drawings and the project location are usually enough for an initial review.

Is this service right for your project?
You may need a moisture and condensation risk analysis when the proposed assembly raises questions about condensation, moisture build-up or how its layers will work together in the project climate.
Wall and façade assemblies
If insulation, membranes, cavities, cladding or internal linings create uncertainty about moisture or condensation risk, the assembly can be reviewed before the detail is finalised.
Roof build-ups
If insulation position, membranes, cavities or the proposed roof layers raise condensation concerns, a review can help clarify what needs to be checked before the build-up is locked in.
Project review
If your architect, engineer, certifier or project team has identified a condensation, vapour or moisture-risk question, send the relevant details and we'll help determine what needs to be reviewed next.
Where do you start?
You don't need to know exactly what is causing the concern before asking for a review. Start with the wall, roof or façade build-up, the project location and any moisture or condensation question that has already been raised.
Send the information you already have. We'll review the assembly, identify what may still be missing and confirm what needs to be assessed next.
Start with the wall, roof or façade build-up that has raised a question. Plans, sections and construction details can show how the proposed layers come together.
Insulation, membranes, cavities, cladding, internal linings and the project location help establish what can be reviewed and what details may still be needed.
Once the available details are understood, we can clarify the moisture or condensation question and whether further analysis is needed for the proposed build-up.
Reviewing your assembly
Your wall, roof or façade works as a complete assembly. Insulation, membranes, cavities, cladding and internal layers can all affect how moisture behaves, so the review needs to reflect the build-up actually proposed for your project.
Send the assembly details you already have. We'll review what's available, confirm any information still needed and establish what should be analysed.
SEND YOUR ASSEMBLY DETAILSYour drawings and available construction details help establish how the wall, roof or façade is intended to be built and which material layers need to be considered.
Once the required information is available, the assembly can be assessed for the moisture and condensation risks relevant to the project and its climate.
You'll be able to see what the review has identified, which questions still need to be resolved and whether the proposed build-up or project details need further consideration.
What you'll receive
You'll know what has been reviewed, where moisture or condensation risk has been identified and which parts of the proposed build-up may need further attention.
The findings are shaped around the agreed project question, so your architect, engineer or wider project team can use them when reviewing the assembly and deciding what happens next.
Item 01
The wall, roof or façade build-up is reviewed within the confirmed scope using the project information and material details available.
Item 02
You'll receive findings relevant to the agreed scope, including where the analysis identifies moisture accumulation, condensation or related risk within the proposed assembly.
Item 03
The findings are explained in the context of your project, so your team can understand what they mean for the assembly rather than receiving analysis without context.
Item 04
If the review identifies an issue or an area that needs further consideration, your team can see what should be reviewed, clarified or investigated next.
Why Certified Energy
A wall, roof or façade build-up cannot be understood from one material or layer alone. The proposed construction, project climate and design intent all matter when moisture and condensation risk is being considered.
Your project is reviewed through both a building physics and architectural lens, so the analysis stays connected to the assembly your team is actually designing.
Your assembly is considered as a complete build-up, with the relevant layers, materials and project conditions reviewed together rather than in isolation.
Your drawings, construction details and design intent are considered alongside the moisture-risk question, helping keep the analysis relevant to the actual project.
You'll understand what the findings mean for the proposed build-up and which parts of the assembly may need further attention, rather than receiving technical results without context.
We can coordinate with your architect, engineer, façade consultant or wider project team so the review responds to the details and decisions already shaping the assembly.
How it works
You can start with the drawings and details you already have. From there, you'll know what information is still needed, what will be reviewed and what the findings mean for your project.
Step 01
Share the drawings, wall, roof or façade build-up and material information you already have, together with any moisture or condensation concern that has been raised.
Step 02
We'll review what's available, identify any missing information and confirm the scope, quotation and next steps before the analysis proceeds.
Step 03
Once the required information is available, the agreed wall, roof or façade build-up is analysed for the moisture and condensation risks relevant to your project.
Step 04
You'll receive the agreed findings and clear interpretation, including any parts of the proposed assembly that need further review, clarification or consideration.
Start with what you have
Send the drawings, wall, roof or façade build-up and material details you already have. We'll review what's available, let you know if anything else is needed and confirm the next step for your project.
SEND YOUR ASSEMBLY DETAILSFrequently Asked Questions
Moisture & Condensation Risk Analysis reviews a proposed wall, roof or façade assembly to investigate how it may perform in relation to moisture and condensation. For your project, the focus is on understanding the relevant risk within the proposed build-up and identifying where further attention may be needed.
A review may be useful when a proposed wall, roof or façade build-up raises questions about moisture or condensation risk, or when your architect, engineer, façade consultant, certifier or wider project team has asked for the assembly to be investigated before the detail is finalised.
Send the information you already have. This may include plans, sections, construction details, wall or roof build-ups, insulation, membranes, cavities, cladding and internal lining details, together with the project location and any moisture or condensation concern that has already been identified.
No. Start with the proposed assembly and explain the concern or project question. We'll review the available information, identify anything else that is needed and help establish an appropriate scope for the analysis.
Yes. You can send the wall, roof or façade information currently available. We'll review what you have and identify any additional material, membrane or construction details needed before the agreed analysis proceeds.
No. Moisture & Condensation Risk Analysis focuses on moisture and condensation behaviour within the proposed assembly. Thermal Bridging analysis addresses heat flow through junctions and areas where the thermal envelope is interrupted. If both issues are relevant to your project, they can be considered as separate building physics questions.
No. This service considers moisture and condensation risk in the proposed building assembly. It is not a waterproofing inspection, leak-detection service or investigation of water entering through a construction defect.
No. Where relevant to the agreed building physics analysis, conditions associated with mould risk may form part of the findings. The service does not include mould inspection, health assessment or remediation of existing mould.
Yes. We can coordinate with your architect, engineer, façade consultant or other project team members to clarify assembly information, the question being investigated and any details that need further review.

Send your available drawings and assembly details together with any moisture or condensation concern you need to investigate. We'll review what's available, confirm what else is needed and provide a clear quotation or next steps.
