In 2012 we enter a new era in roof-ing, waterproofing and building envelope protection. The roofs, walls and windows of your proper-ties are now entering the green building era with the added prob-lems of hyper inflation in building costs related to world wide raw materials shortages. R.M.X. of America (a CMR Group Inc. Company) is growing into one of the premiere consulting organi-zations in the United States, with the expansion of our brand in all 50 states with over 400 locations. A million square feet of roofs, high
rise buildings, historic structures, underground garages and plazas are all within our teams proud background. Our team has performed consulting services on billions of square feet for clients in the past few decades. Our team understands what it takes to get the job done right the first time. Perfecting the weathering elements, components and systems of the manufacturers are the biggest design concern still in building a quality; roof, wall or window element or system in your properties. We do not go for standard details but we customize the indus-try principals and practices with your building's architectural features to make sure the building works when we are done. In cases where failures have occurred on other buildings brought to us after the fact, we find solutions through; forensics and mediation or expert witness resolution. Testing in house with moisture meters, infrared cameras test-cuts, reverse engineering, and out of house electron microscopes and other forms lab testing all help us to find the answers for our clients. In the 1980's there were 108 single ply roof system manufacturers, now there are a cool dozen or so left. These products are constantly changing and evolving to comply with new codes, labor and environmental regulations. Plaza's and parking garage projects have been our specialty for 25 years and structural teams we work with have created the very best in moisture protection and structural integrity. Road and bridge waterproof-ing is becoming a major public concern and R.M.X. of America has the team to bring you results. Historic and monumental restoration projects continue to be one of our most well known divisions. The masonry upgrade work on stucco, brownstones, sandstones, limestone's and brick structures has been award winning in many districts over the last 10 years. The slate, tile and copper roofing work we have completed has also won awards for the past two decades. Whether it is a new building or an existing struc-ture, R.M.X of America has the team to get your projects weather tight on time and under budget.

Property Condition Assessments
(An accurate picture of a property's physical assets before investing can help in calculating true costs and life expectancies to
incorporate into long term investment strategy and ROI of the property)
These reports are effective when negotiating purchase price of a property as well as finan-cial planning
Peer Plan Review
(Architectural and Design/Build Firms rely on experts in the engineering disciplines to assist in the overall design and inte-gration of components as a standard practice, but the Building Envelope is often a afterthought)
The latest construction designs depend on efficient and sustainable ener-gy practices, and the Building Envelope is a key component in that pro-cess.
Combining the expertise of R.M.X. of America together with that of other construction and en-ergy-related disciplines will contribute to a high quality project and help to anticipate field con-ditions that may need adjustment, prior to the project being bid.
This will potentially save the client from paying for costly change orders and re-designs during the construction process.

Condominium Reserve Studies
Provide accurate assessment of all condominium common area components.
Comprehensive report includes a descriptive text and photographic index of current
conditions.
Customized spreadsheets provide both a standard replacement reserve schedule and a second “Project Planner” spreadsheet that targets particular compo-nents to be addressed in the near future. Project Planner spreadsheets provide you with real time scenarios for the board to consider, from both asset-management and strictly financial points of view.
Benefits:
When a regularly scheduled Reserve Study program is implemented, and subsequent updates are performed, they provide an association board and its property manager with a very helpful tool to determine their current and future positions.
Property Managers are then able to precisely forecast their capital and repair project picture from
both a timing and financial aspect. This will make the budgeting process easier and more accurate.
