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.

In England, a loft insulated across more than half its area should reach a U-value of 0.16 W/m²K. Insulation alone is not usually notified to building control. How the rules work across the UK.
Questions about a thermal imaging survey in Longfield
How soon can you visit a home in Longfield?
We call you back to agree a time that suits you, and confirm the date in writing. Availability changes week to week, so we will give you the earliest slot we have.
Can a landlord in Longfield book work for a tenanted house?
Yes. We can arrange access with the tenant directly and send you photos once the work is finished.
What do I need to do before you arrive in Longfield?
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.
Can thermal imaging find gaps in loft insulation?
Yes. Missing or thin insulation shows as colder patches on the ceiling below.
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.
