FAQ

What is a thermographic building survey, and why do I need one?

A thermographic building survey is a non-invasive inspection using infrared technology to detect thermal anomalies in a property. It identifies issues like heat loss, moisture intrusion, insulation defects, and structural problems that are not visible to the naked eye. You need one to improve energy efficiency, prevent costly repairs, and ensure the property's structural integrity.

Why should I consider a thermographic survey for my property?

Consider a thermographic survey to uncover hidden issues, enhance energy efficiency, lower utility bills, and maintain the property's value. It's especially useful when purchasing a property, after renovations, or if you suspect issues like dampness or poor insulation.

Can a thermographic survey help with my building's energy efficiency?

Yes, a thermographic survey identifies areas where heat is escaping and where insulation may be lacking or damaged. By addressing these issues, you can significantly improve your building's energy efficiency and reduce heating costs.

What's included in a thermographic survey report?

The report includes thermal images of the property highlighting areas of concern, detailed analysis of findings, explanations of issues detected, and expert recommendations for remedial actions. It provides a comprehensive overview of the property's thermal performance.

What types of properties can benefit from a thermographic survey?

All types of properties can benefit, including residential homes, commercial buildings, historic structures, and new constructions. It's particularly beneficial for older buildings or those with suspected issues like dampness, insulation problems, or structural defects.

How quickly can I expect my thermographic survey report?

You'll receive your detailed thermographic survey report within 48 hours of the survey's completion, complete with thermal images and recommendations.

Do I need to prepare my property before the thermographic survey?

Yes, for accurate results, the property should have a temperature difference between the inside and outside (ideally at least 10°C). Heating systems should be on before the survey in colder months. Our surveyors will provide specific instructions based on your situation.

Is a thermographic survey intrusive or disruptive?

No, thermographic surveys are non-intrusive and non-destructive. The surveyor uses infrared cameras to scan surfaces without causing any damage or requiring physical contact with the property.

Can thermographic surveys detect leaks and moisture issues?

Yes, thermographic imaging can identify areas of moisture intrusion, leaks, and dampness by detecting temperature differences caused by evaporation or moisture presence.
