HVAC change orders often exceed $5,000+
Issues identified late typically cost significantly more once construction has started

We enable early and reliable HVAC procurement by fully defining equipment and system requirements at the start. We support you in your Preconstruction and Constructability phase.
We move equipment decisions forward, weeks of procurement delay are eliminated by resolving decisions upfront. You don’t have to chase equipment decisions – we make procurement predictable and ensure your HVAC Preconstruction works!
Great HVAC systems are not created by design alone, and they aren't fixed by construction alone. At AGE Design & Build, we look at HVAC from both directions. We combines technical planning experience with hands-on construction experience from real world projects.
AGE provides HVAC Preconstruction Service in Charlotte, NC. We are a technical team with German roots and a clear focus: technical precision, long-term solutions and genuine partnerships - human to human with German Knowhow Specialists
Our background is built on more than 100 commercial HVAC projects in Germany. This experience is now applied in the U.S. market, where we provide our Design Assist for General Contractors and Commercial Developers.
As Engineers in Germany, we believe in more than short-term fixes. Reliability, accountability and earned trust are the foundation of every client relationship. Our work combines German engineering discipline with U.S. expertise, creating clarity and certainty in your project
I'm doing this because after more than 12 years in the HVAC and MEP industry, I'm still frustrated to see the same problems repeated across so many projects: budget overruns that reduce profit or delays that wreck any schedule and hold up the entire project. In my opinion, these shouldn't be the standard, as I have experiencedd firsthand, year after year, that things can be approached differently. For this reason, I founded AGE Design & Build, to combine American execution with German precision and create more Value impact!

Thorsten Peter, Founder of AGE
Our Vision is to become the quality leader in the U.S. market by delivering building systems that are buildable, coordinated and built to perform long before construction begins.
Great building systems are built long before installation begins!
At AGE Design & Build, we believe that most construction problems are not created in the field - they are created when design intent, coordination and execution are disconnected too late in the process.
We operate in the critical gap between engineering design and construction execution. Our Approach combines technical planning experience with hands-on construction and project execution experience to identify problems before they reach the field.
By combining German engineering thinking with U.S. construction know-how, we reduce coordination failures, schedule risk and costly field rework before fabrication and installation begin.
Our Focus, Bring Field Experience Back into Planning and reduce expensive mistakes!
American Execution. German Precision. Exceptional Building Performance
We operate at the critical interface between design and construction – by identifying HVAC scope, constructability, coordination and execution risks before they become expensive and delays your project - not just BIM
Conflicting use requirements, interface risk between Industrial and Mixed Use complex system coordination
Tight ceiling spaces, dense HVAC coordination and schedule-driven tenant improvements.
High code requirements, critical HVAC zoning and zero tolerance for coordination errors
