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 Sunderland

How do I pay for work in Sunderland?

Payment terms are set out on your quote. We never ask for payment on the doorstep or in cash.

What do I need to do before you arrive in Sunderland?

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.

Do you charge extra to travel to Sunderland?

Not normally. Our guide prices include normal travel to Sunderland. If an address needs a ferry or an unusually long journey, we tell you the cost before you book.

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.

Can thermal imaging find gaps in loft insulation?

Yes. Missing or thin insulation shows as colder patches on the ceiling below.
