20+ Years Experience
Specialist Thermal Imaging Survey
Our experts are trained to carry out thermal imaging surveys in a quick and efficient time.
Thermal Imaging is a key factor for many families in Penrith when it comes to ensuring property safety and also being energy efficient when it comes to cutting costs with energy bills.
We are a team of professionals who work with you to get the best value for your money when it comes to surveying your property in November 2024.
Thermal Imaging Surveys involve the use of thermal imaging cameras to visually represent surface temperatures of an object in order to identify thermal anomalies that indicate possible defects.
Thermographic Surveys are usually required in Penrith for 3 reasons:
Thermography can be used to also identify problems or potential defects in building fabric at the earliest possible stage, thus saving time and enabling remedial works to be carried out before the building or equipment is handed over to the client.
Thermography can also be used as part of a predictive maintenance or condition monitoring programme to identify defects early such that remedial works can be scheduled around business operations preventing any unplanned downtime or production or reducing unplanned downtime.
Equipment is suspected of operating under faulty conditions or demonstrating evidence of heat or energy loss, air leakage or poor performance, thermography can also be used to identify issues that show temperature difference provide further information which can help in diagnosing the suspected issue.
A thermal survey, sometimes referred to as infrared thermography is a process where a thermal camera captures and creates an image of an object by using infrared radiation emitted from the object in a process.
If you are in need of a routine survey of your building or land in Penrith or searching for leaks in a building or an area that’s difficult to access, thermal surveys are the number one solution that provide a swift and cost effective result time and time again.
Thermal imaging in Penrith does not require any light, it picks out changes in temperature and creates a clear image showing objects with a higher heat signature in yellow, orange or red.
The main difference between night vision and thermal imaging are quite sparce, with night vision now being rather outdated technology with limitations that thermal imaging does not have.
A Thermal Imaging survey in Penrith works by using cameras that can detect differences in heat emitting from: buildings, liquids and gas, electrical circuits, capacitors, vehicles, machinery, couplings and insulation, land and rocks, and even living species, animal, and vegetation.
Using thermal imaging systems fitted to UAS (Unmanned Aircraft Systems) we can then capture temperature changes from above.
Images are created from heat (infrared thermal radiation) rather than visible light and can capture temperature changes even as small as 0.01°C. This gives you a broad scope of data and allows customers to discover any leaks or malfunctions quickly.
If you want to do a heat loss survey, be sure to get the very best thermal imaging, its best to do so in cold weather, usually between November and April so our internal imaging camera can detect cold spots in the heat leaving your building.
The best times of the day to carry out a thermal survey leak detection of cold spots is in the morning or late afternoon/evening.
Our thermographic surveys in Penrith include a detailed examination of the problems found by our technical team, along with thermal images taken as evidence.
We’re committed to ensuring that you have all the information to make an informed decision for your home and its safety.
Listed below are some of the Thermal Imaging Surveys that we offer to survey clients:
Residential thermal imaging surveys are typically carried out to identify the root causes of cold rooms, areas underfloor heating or whole houses.
Our highly experienced and certified professional surveyors will carry out a survey both internally and externally identify the issues throughout the property.
Commercial Thermal Imaging is a technology that allows commercial building and property inspectors to show clients things about a building that no one ca show using other inspection methods.
Thermal imaging produces thermal images out of invisible heat energy emitted from objects and systems in the building and allows us to measure it.
The average cost of a Thermal imaging survey is roughly around £250 for a flat or £299 for a house. If combined with a snagging survey, all our Thermal Imaging Surveys are £250. Listed below are the average price in the UK:
Listed below you will find 5 key benefits of Thermal Imaging:
Thermal imaging can save money on both heating and cooling.
By identifying areas missing insulation floor heating system or in your home where heat is escaping, it gives customers the chance to take action to further heat loss survey repair the missing insulation, seal pipe leaks or insulation itself, or replace any equipment to keep heat retention improve energy efficiency.
It is important to detect any electrical problems in Penrith before they cause fires or other damage.
This is very important in industrial settings where electrical equipment is often subject to heavy use every few hours and may be at risk of overheating or other failures.
Find hidden objects, such as any people or animals in dark or smoke filled areas. This becomes massively important in situations where visibility may be limited due to smoke or other obstructions.
Thermal imaging cameras can be used to inspect equipment for problems such insulation defects detect faults such as overheating or electrical faults.
This identifies any potential issues in Penrith before they lead to equipment failure or downtime, customers can save time, energy loss, and money on repairs and maintenance.
It allows customers the ability to monitor temperature in various areas, this is useful for factories and warehouses.
This can help customers identify hotspots or identify areas that may be hot spots at risk of overheating, allowing them to take action to the heat loss prevent damage or downtime.
Thermal imaging is able to detect the following faults and defects:
Thermal Imagine Surveys are 100% worth it when trying to cut energy costs and improve property safety.
A thermal imaging survey allows the benefit of detecting areas with water leaks trapped moisture and dampness.
By catching these early, it allows the problem to be treated and rectified with as little disruption and cost to home owners as possible.
The best time to carry out a thermal imaging survey of building insulation is in the winter.
This provides a sharp contrast to heated indoor temperatures making it easier to see heat loss survey see energy use of insulation, see heat loss and identify areas of heat and energy and heat loss within the home.
Thermal imaging surveys can be carried out on any of the following properties such as detached houses, flats, apartment, show homes, stately homes, new buildings, commercial buildings housing associations, and housing associations, blocks of flats and retirement living properties.
BSRIA, thermographic survey and thermographic building surveys that are conducted by engineers qualified in accordance with ISO 18436:7 and thermographic building surveys in accordance with BS EN 13187 and ISO 6781 as recommended by the UK Thermography Authority (UKTA)

Barking"Our commercial property needed a comprehensive assessment to identify any hidden issues that might impact our operations. Turning to commercial thermal imaging proved to be a game-changer. The detailed scans provided us with insights into our building's building envelope, HVAC systems, and even electrical connections. It allowed us to proactively address potential problems, avoiding costly downtime and ensuring a safe environment for our staff and customers. Thermal imaging truly transformed the way we maintain our facility."
Kian Brown"As a homeowner, I was curious about the efficiency of my house's insulation and heating system. Opting for residential thermal imaging was one of the best energy efficient move decisions I've made. The thermal imaging technology pinpointed areas of heat, energy and heat loss, and insulation gaps that were otherwise invisible. Thanks to this, I was able to address those issues, leading to better comfort and significant in energy costs and energy savings throughout. I'm truly impressed with how thermal imaging improved my home's energy efficiency."
