Description

Build and remodel with confidence. Expert material vetting and healthy building guidance before contractor supplies arrive on your doorstep.

A home renovation is one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make. But without clear guidance, standard building products can introduce high levels of formaldehyde, toxic solvents, petrochemical adhesives, and off-gassing finishes directly into your family’s living space.

Once flooring is glued down or cabinetry is installed, fixing a problem becomes complicated, stressful, and expensive.

The smartest time to protect your indoor environment is before work begins.

As a certified building biology practitioner and professional home inspector, I act as your trusted second set of eyes. We review your contractor’s proposed materials, technical data sheets, and installation techniques to make sure your beautiful new space supports your family’s health from day one.

What We Review for Your Project

Whether you’re tackling a complete kitchen redesign, updating your main-level flooring, or finishing a lower level, we evaluate every key layer:

• Flooring & Subfloors: Solid wood vs. engineered choices, safe non-toxic underlayment, zero-VOC adhesives, and floating installation strategies.

• Cabinetry & Millwork: Low-formaldehyde core materials, solid wood construction, and safe factory-applied finishes.

• Paints, Stains & Sealants: Reviewing Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) to bypass greenwashing, checking VOC content, and selecting verified low-odor products.

• Moisture Barriers & Insulation: Assessing vapor retarders, basement subfloor systems, and insulation types to prevent hidden moisture and mold behind new walls.

• Contractor Communication: Clear, practical product recommendations you can hand directly to your builder without feeling difficult or demanding.

What’s Included in Your Package

• Pre-Call Blueprint & Material Audit: Before we meet, you’ll submit your floor plans, contractor product proposals, and material wishlists. I review technical specifications and Safety Data Sheets in advance so our time together is focused on answers.

• 60-Minute Strategy & Planning Video Call: A dedicated session to walk through your floor plan, review installation sequencing, address your primary health priorities, and map out your project protocol.

• Vetted Sourcing & Material Specification Sheet: Delivered within 48 hours of our call, you’ll receive a clear, room-by-room document outlining safe, vetted brands, product codes, and purchase links for flooring, paint, underlayment, and adhesives.

• 14 Days of Contractor Check-In Support: Contractors often run into out-of-stock items or suggest last-minute job-site swaps. You have direct email access to me for two full weeks so you can quickly run alternative products by me before approving them.

• Call Recording Access: A private recording of our planning session to reference throughout your renovation.
