Luxury Multi-Family Exterior Envelope Restoration
Kansas City, Missouri
Project Overview
Apex Construction Systems and NSPJ Architects developed an integrated design-and-construction approach for the remediation of an occupied two-building luxury condominium community in Kansas City, Missouri.
The owner-facing plan responded to documented reports of recurring water penetration and complex exterior-envelope conditions across an occupied luxury condominium community. The objective was to move from historical symptoms and prior reports to a verified scope, coordinated design, defensible budget, and phased construction plan.
Project Profile
Property type: Owner-occupied luxury condominiums
Buildings: Two residential buildings
Location: Kansas City, Missouri
Project phase: Investigation, remediation planning, design, budgeting, and occupied-building phasing
Conditions Requiring Coordinated Review
Supporting technical reports identified concerns involving several connected assemblies rather than a single isolated finish. The planning effort therefore addressed the envelope as a system.
Stucco and exterior wall assemblies
Window and exterior-door transitions
Upper-balcony interfaces and waterproofing
Plaza-deck waterproofing, drainage, and penetrations
Potential concealed sheathing, framing, and substrate deterioration
Occupied access, resident protection, and finish continuity
Planning and Scope-Definition Approach
Conduct a full investigation to verify the extent and cause of repairs
Define the precise remediation scope, including safety planning for mold or other hazards if encountered
Coordinate new waterproofing details, materials, colors, and architectural transitions
Build and review a materials mockup before broad exterior changes

Occupied-Property Execution Framework
Sequence work with property management to reduce disruption to residents
Maintain and share an updated weekly schedule with the project team
Use transparent cost forecasting and value engineering to align scope with the owner's budget
Keep the architect available during construction to address newly exposed conditions and issue details
Quality-Control and Closeout Plan
Periodic inspection and water testing by an agreed-upon waterproofing consultant
Written testing reports retained for the owner's records
Final punch-list inspection with the owner and waterproofing consultant
Warranty follow-up and an optional long-term preventive-maintenance program
Owner Decision Value
This project illustrates why large condominium remediation should begin with evidence, fundable scope, and occupied-building logistics. Investigation, design, estimating, sequencing, testing, and communication must work as one process before broad exterior reconstruction begins.
Capabilities Applied
Building-envelope investigation and remediation planning
Stucco, waterproofing, balcony, plaza-deck, window, and door coordination
Design-assist constructability and mockup planning
Occupied condominium phasing and resident-protection planning
Open-book budgeting, schedule control, testing, and documented closeout
Why Apex Construction Systems
Apex brings the contractor's view into the investigation and design process early—connecting concealed conditions, repair details, access, sequencing, cost, quality control, and resident impact before the work is released for construction.
