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.

Questions about a thermal imaging survey in Fort William

Can you take on work in Fort William?

Sometimes. Fort William is outside our normal travelling area, so we look at each job first. If we can help, any travel cost is shown on the quote before you book, and nothing is booked until you agree it.

Will I get a written quote for work in Fort William?

Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.

What do I need to do before you arrive in Fort William?

Clear a path to the hatch and, if you can, move stored items away from the area we will be working in. Tell us about anything heavy or fragile.

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.

When is the best time for a thermal imaging survey?

On a cold, still, dry day with the heating on for several hours. Bright sun or rain on the roof makes outside images unreliable.
