Before After
Latest Thermal Imaging Technology
As we use the latest technology in thermal imaging cameras, we can effortlessly detect damp and heat loss insulation problems in the property in question. This non-contact method in our surveys allows us to easily detect areas of heat loss, and identify areas of poor construction, missing or ineffective insulation, air leakage, and moisture and water ingress.

Building Survey Services Breakdown
Mold, leak and damp detection
Our surveys will look to identify any potential deterioration due to dampness (rising, penetrating and interstitial), leaks, and surface condensation. This is achieved through the use of our thermal imaging technology and a trained eye.
Identification of building and roof defects
As well as assessing the general condition of the property, our specialist surveyors are also skilled in assessing and diagnosing building defects (walls, roof, floors).
Odour problems
Our building surveys will identify any odour issues in the property, from damp odours to body or smoke odours. Our survey will outline recommendations on what can be done to clean and decontaminate the property, resolving the problem.
Heat loss insulation problems
As with damp and water ingress detection, we use our thermal imaging technology to identify areas of heat loss and air leakage leading to poor thermal comfort. This speeds up the time it would usually take to physically inspect the property.
TRACE UNDERFLOOR HEATING PIPES
Our high-resolution thermal imagery cameras can analyse underfloor heating pipes in the property to identify any problems. For example, blocked or leaking pipes, will be easily identifiable.

    • Building Survey FAQs

    Yes, a building survey is worth it. A comprehensive building survey is an investment, as it prevents any nasty surprises from appearing in the future. This is especially important if you are a homeowner looking to buy an older or listed property.

    A building survey includes but is not restricted to the identification of roof, wall, and floor defects, alterations made to the property, structural movement, dampness, leaks, mold, rot, and heat loss via insulation.

    As above, building surveys are recommended when considering the purchase of an old or listed building. they should also be undertaken when a building is undergoing a change of use (conversion).
