We provide analysis and monitoring solutions for clients engaged in building restoration, design, construction, and management.

Leaders in Leak Detection

We utilize near real-time sensor analysis and remote data collection to allow Engineers, Architects, Building Owners and Researchers to validate designs, materials, and methods, producing more efficient and durable buildings. Founded in 2006, SMT designs software and electronics used to monitor and evaluate the integrity and performance of commercial and residential building enclosures. We have expanded to include both low- and high-value building projects from around the world while fostering award-winning innovation and scientific excellence in both our product and service offerings. We are dedicated to innovation and creating new solutions for clients in the construction industry. We embrace the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) for construction development. Near real-time sensor analysis and remote data collection have allowed engineers and researchers to validate designs, materials, and methods to produce more efficient and durable buildings. With our innovative solutions, clients are able to reduce their environmental impact and long-term costs, while improving quality assurance throughout the construction and/or restoration process.

October came with a little bit of everything, and we have the camera roll to prove it. 📸

Between rooftop sunrises, rainy site visits, lunch-and-learns, filming days, field installs, team calls, a trip to Toronto, and a few Halloween surprises, it was a full month.

A lot of what we do is technical, but behind every system, report, and project is a team moving between job sites, meetings, content shoots, and problem-solving in real time.

So here’s a small look at what our team got up to in October.

From rooftop views to coast-to-coast travels, with plenty of rain, teamwork, and a few Halloween scares along the way, it's been a busy one.

October kept us on our toes. Let’s see what November has in store!

What's scarier than a haunted house? A roof leak hiding in plain sight! 🎃👻

Cobwebs? Expected.

Spiders? Manageable.

An undetected membrane breach? Now THAT'S scary.

Our team is out in the field making sure the only surprises this Halloween are the ones we planned for.

Some people hunt ghosts. We hunt membrane breaches and moisture where it doesn't belong. 🔎👻

Happy Halloween from SMT! 🎃🦇

Out of sight shouldn't mean out of mind. 👀🏗️

Once a waterproofing membrane is buried beneath landscaping, pavers, or other overburden, finding a leak becomes a whole lot more complicated.

That's why checking membrane integrity 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 everything gets covered up matters.

🎥 Here's a closer look at why!

10/19/2026

A lot goes into knowing what's happening beneath a roof.

It might look like a maze of wires and circuit boards, but every connection has a purpose.

Behind SMT's automated monitoring systems is a network of sensors and hardware working together to collect data from within the building envelope.

Paired with SMT Analytics, this information helps building owners and consultants better understand roof conditions, identify potential moisture issues, and make more informed maintenance decisions.

Because once a roof is covered by insulation, pavers, or a rooftop garden, knowing what's happening underneath becomes a whole lot more valuable.

The goal? Less guesswork. Better information. Buildings that last.

POV: You're tagging along for an SMT site visit. 👷‍♀️🏗️

Good views, great company, and a little behind-the-scenes look at what we've been up to!

Moisture management is bigger than the membrane.

A building envelope is an integrated system—and understanding it means looking beyond any single layer or technology.

From verifying membrane integrity with DigiScan during construction and before it’s concealed beneath overburden, to tracking assembly conditions 24/7 over the long term with FutureCast and SMT Analytics, the right data matters at every stage of the building’s lifecycle.

The membrane matters. But it’s only one part of the system.

Stop crossing your fingers. Start managing your moisture.

It’s been almost 25 years since the Durability of Building Materials and Components conference was last held in Canada, and SMT couldn’t be more excited to welcome the 17th International Conference on the Durability of Building Materials and Components to Montreal this July! 🍁

Hosted by Concordia University and the National Research Council Canada / Conseil national de recherches Canada, DBMC 2026 will bring together top minds to tackle the evolving challenges of climate resilience, decarbonization, and building longevity.

At SMT, we believe that true durability starts with quality assurance and near real-time data. Our mission is to provide architects and engineers with the exact toolsets and automated systems they need to eliminate guesswork and protect the building envelope. From the initial stages of construction sequencing to decades down the line, we help you validate material performance and prevent costly, unsustainable roof repairs.

Planning to attend? We’d love to connect, exchange knowledge, and discuss your upcoming projects.

Behind every successful building envelope monitoring strategy is a skilled team executing precision work in the field.

From deploying our low-voltage DigiScan tool to ensure quality assurance on exposed inverted roof membranes, to installing our continuous, automated FutureCast Inverted and Conventional systems, our technicians are the vital link between structural data and actionable insights on the SMT Analytics platform.

Their work allows engineers, architects, and building owners to confidently validate materials, track building health, and ultimately reduce environmental impacts by eliminating unnecessary roof repairs.

We’re incredibly grateful to our field teams for the care, expertise, attention to detail, and dedication they bring to every site. Their hard work plays a vital role in helping create stronger, more resilient buildings, and we couldn't do it without them. Thank you for the professionalism, commitment, and pride you bring to your work every day.

True building resilience means keeping an eye on your structure's health 24/7/365. SMT’s on-site data enclosures work tirelessly in the background, bridging the gap between physical sensor grids—like our FutureCast and TimberCast lines—and our cloud-based software, SMT Analytics.

For engineers and building owners, this means zero guesswork. From any laptop, anywhere in the world, you can log into the SMT portal to view real-time data, track trends, and instantly generate comprehensive building health reports.

Discover how we’re shrinking environmental impacts by preventing unnecessary roof replacements and catching issues before they become catastrophes.

Terraces, green spaces, and premium views. Tesoro by has it all—including smart structural protection from the ground up. 🏢⚡

Before these beautiful outdoor amenities and roof assemblies were completed, SMT's electronic testing solutions were on the job, locating hidden vulnerabilities caused by busy construction sequencing.

Now, with our advanced sensor analytics working behind the scenes, the building's performance is continuously validated, and owners can check in on their structural health report from any laptop, anywhere.

Because a design this beautiful deserves engineering protection to match.
