Building Thermal Imaging
Get in TouchAt Thermal Imaging Specialists, we provide building thermal imaging to offer a thorough inspection of your property's insulation and structural integrity. Our infrared technology detects temperature differences which can indicate poor insulation, moisture intrusion or electrical faults.
Using cutting-edge thermal cameras, we assess various property types, pinpointing issues that are invisible to the naked eye. Contact us to schedule a thermal imaging survey today.
How Much Does Building Thermal Imaging Cost?
Building thermal imaging typically costs between £250 and £500. The exact price depends on the property's size, the type of construction, and the specific issues being investigated.
Factors such as accessibility and survey duration also influence the final cost. Larger properties or those requiring a detailed analysis may fall at the higher end of the scale.
We use Fluke Ti series infrared cameras that offer high thermal sensitivity and spatial resolution to detect issues like energy loss, moisture intrusion, and electrical faults. We provide a report with infrared images, enabling you to make informed decisions.
The report often includes a detailed assessment of thermal bridges, air leaks, and insulation defects based on current standards such as ISO 6781. Get in touch for a precise quote tailored to your needs.

How Does Building Thermal Imaging Work?
Building thermal imaging uses high-resolution infrared cameras to detect heat patterns within a building. This process begins with a detailed preliminary survey, where our experienced team evaluates the unique characteristics of your property, such as its size, structure, and existing energy performance issues.
We strategically position the FLIR (Forward Looking Infrared) cameras, known for their sensitivity and accuracy, around your site to ensure optimal coverage for capturing thermal images. These images reveal inconsistencies in insulation, unexpected thermal bridges, and potential moisture ingress.
Following the capture, we meticulously analyse the thermal data. Our report not only highlights areas of concern but also suggests remedial actions such as enhanced insulation or sealing air leaks.
This method is non-invasive and provides critical insight into your building's efficiency and safety, aligning with standards like the ISO 6781 for thermal performance evaluation in buildings. Get in touch today for a consultation!
What Are the Benefits of Building Thermal Imaging?
Building thermal imaging offers several advantages for property owners:
Detects Hidden Issues: Our thermal imaging can identify problems like insulation gaps, moisture ingress, and electrical faults. We use infra-red cameras to capture heat loss and pinpoint hidden issues within the building structure.
Energy Efficiency: By highlighting areas where heat escape occurs, thermal imaging helps improve heating and cooling performance, potentially lowering energy bills. This method aligns with energy assessment standards such as those set by the Energy Saving Trust.
Prevents Damage: Early detection through thermal imaging can prevent costly repairs by addressing issues before they escalate. This can prolong the life of materials like brickwork and wooden beams by avoiding decay caused by undetected moisture.
Increased Safety: Identifying electrical faults using thermal imaging can prevent potential fire hazards. This is crucial for properties that rely on complex electrical systems, ensuring compliance with safety regulations.

When Is Building Thermal Imaging Needed?
Building thermal imaging is often necessary when buying or selling a property, renovating, or identifying persistent home issues. If you've noticed cold drafts, inexplicable dampness, or high energy bills, thermal imaging can pinpoint the cause.
Our thermal imaging cameras use infrared technology to detect temperature variations, revealing areas of poor insulation, water infiltration, or electrical issues. Insurers or lenders may also require a thermal imaging report for new policies or mortgage evaluations, ensuring the property's condition meets standard requirements.
Additionally, landlords can benefit from thermal imaging to ensure their properties comply with Minimum Energy Efficiency Standards (MEES). The process typically takes a few hours, depending on property size, and produces detailed reports with thermal images and analysis.
