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 Nairn
Do you charge extra to travel to Nairn?
Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Nairn. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.
Do you cover all of IV12?
Yes, we cover the IV12 postcode district and the districts around Nairn.
Will I get a written quote for work in Nairn?
Yes. Every quote is in writing with the work, the price and what is included, so you can compare it properly.
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.
Can thermal imaging find gaps in loft insulation?
Yes. Missing or thin insulation shows as colder patches on the ceiling below.
