What is a thermal imaging survey?
Thermal images work best when the house is heated and the outdoor temperature is low, ideally at least 10°C lower than indoors, so surveys are booked for cold mornings or evenings. We image the top-floor ceilings, the room-in-roof if you have one and the loft, and explain what each cold patch is likely to be. More about a thermal imaging survey.

Plain-English advice
We explain what we find in plain English, and say so when nothing needs doing.

The price on the quote is the price you pay. It only changes if you change the job, or if we find something hidden, such as rot, and you agree the change in writing first.

Your quote says who to call with questions before, during and after the work.
No pressure selling
You get everything in writing and decide in your own time.
How much does a thermal imaging survey cost in Blackwood?
This work is not an energy-saving material for VAT, so it is standard-rated if VAT applies. Where it is done alongside insulation, the quote shows each part separately.
Building regulations in Wales
Wales has its own Approved Document L. Insulation alone is not normally notified, but conversions need building control. How the rules work across the UK.
Questions about a thermal imaging survey in Blackwood
How do I pay for work in Blackwood?
Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.
Can you visit Blackwood outside working hours?
Ask about early, late or weekend appointments when you get in touch, and we will tell you honestly what we can offer.
Can a landlord in Blackwood book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
Can thermal imaging find gaps in loft insulation?
Yes. Missing or thin insulation shows as colder patches on the ceiling below.
Is a thermal imaging survey worth it?
It is most useful where a problem is hard to find or you want to check someone else's work. For a simple loft you can see into, a standard survey is usually enough.
