About Us

 

JSHARDY, LLC is a Building Envelope Consultant firm with numerous past commercial and institutional building clients extending from Charleston, SC to Ketchikan, AK. With over 40 years of practical experience gained on construction sites, combined with nationally recognized technical knowledge and expertise, we have successfully provided specialized services for Owners throughout the US.

Beginning in 1974 with hands-on experience in the roofing, waterproofing and sheet metal construction industry as a Union Journeyman, Superintendent, and Contractor, J.S. Hardy ultimately progressed into the consultant design field in 1985 where he garnered a national reputation as one of the best. There is no substitution for practical hands-on experience and proven technical knowledge of building systems.

 

We are proud to say that our unique qualifications and depth of experience provides a design approach to building Projects which reduce construction costs and results in a more durable and efficient system, normally to the point where our design fees are recouped by Owner in savings, either initially or over the course of time.

JSHardy proved to be a valuable asset on this Project (Safeway Plaza, Maple Valley, WA). We were experiencing roof leaks before the work was even completed. He discovered the problem causing leaks, ans well as documenting work that was not completed to plan. Additionally, he discovered other hidden problems with the wal waterproofing systems, and I can directly trace over $100,000 in future cost that was saved due to Mr. Hardy's involvement. His firm will be involved in all of our future developments

Prior to JSHardy's involvement (in InterBay Building, Seattle, WA), we had obtained roof contractor bids, which excluded roof tear-off or roof insulation upgrades. Steve developed plans for existing roof tear-off, new R-30 insulation upgrades, and 20-year roof waranty, for $50,000 less than our lowest previous bid!
