ABOUT CBEPC
We help projects perform better, last longer, and avoid costly failures.
Carolina Building Enclosure & Performance Consulting is a Charlotte-based building science firm dedicated to creating durable, efficient, and resilient buildings across the Carolinas.
We specialize in moisture management, high-performance design, and building enclosure diagnostics tailored to the unique challenges of our hot-humid climate.
Our work blends technical precision with practical, real-world solutions. Whether supporting architects, builders, developers, or homeowners, we help projects perform better, last longer, and avoid costly failures.
To elevate the built environment of the Carolinas by delivering science-driven guidance that improves durability, comfort, and energy performance — one project at a time.
In the Carolinas, heat, humidity, and rapid growth create unique challenges for buildings. Poor enclosure decisions can lead to mold, comfort issues, energy waste, and expensive failures.
We help project teams avoid those pitfalls by making informed, climate-appropriate choices from day one.
ABOUT THE FOUNDER
CBEPC is led by Vincent Ellis, a Charlotte-based building scientist holding a Bachelor of Architectural Science, a Master of Building Science, and the PHIUS Certified Consultant (CPHC®) credential.
Vincent’s experience spans hygrothermal modeling, moisture management, and high‑performance enclosure design, using WUFI and THERM to assess vapor drive, condensation potential, and thermal bridging in building assemblies. His building‑science training includes extensive hands‑on instruction in blower‑door testing and enclosure diagnostics.
