When it comes to enhancing the energy efficiency, comfort, and value of your home, identifying hidden issues is crucial.

Thermal imaging is an innovative technology that offers homeowners and property buyers a clear picture of their home’s performance. At Fitzgerald Surveying Services, we use this advanced technique to provide detailed insights into areas requiring attention, ultimately helping you make informed decisions about your property improvements.

Spotting Heat Loss and Poor Insulation

Thermal imaging effectively highlights areas where heat escapes from your home. A common issue we observe is poorly sealed doors, which become major points of heat loss and cold air infiltration, leading to higher energy bills and reduced comfort.

We also detect poorly insulated walls, particularly where cavity insulation is lacking. These cold spots not only make heating more expensive, but they can also make certain rooms uncomfortable during winter months. Targeted insulation upgrades offer significant improvements in energy efficiency and indoor comfort.

Revealing Hidden Issues in the Loft

Your loft plays a crucial role in retaining heat. Gaps in loft insulation can cause significant heat loss through ceilings, which often leads to condensation issues and eventually damp and mould. Thermal imaging pinpoints these areas, enabling you to insulate more effectively and protect both the structure and health of your home.

Detecting Moisture and Leaks

Hidden leaks and moisture issues are another area where thermal imaging excels. These issues often go undetected until major damage has occurred. Our technology allows us to identify damp areas or leaking pipes before they worsen, helping you avoid costly repairs and maintain a healthy home.

The Benefits of Thermal Imaging for Homeowners

• Enhanced Energy Efficiency: Identify and address heat loss areas to lower your energy bills.
• Improved Comfort: Maintain stable indoor temperatures with better insulation and sealing.
• Preventive Maintenance: Catch hidden issues early to avoid costly future repairs.
• Informed Decisions: Prioritise your home improvements with confidence.
