Beyond the Surface: Add our Thermal-Lite to your Survey.
Many people choose a new build property assuming the house will be thermally efficient… but that’s not always the case. Alongside your Snagging Survey or Fundamentals Survey, we offer a hybrid version of our full Thermal heat-loss Survey which we call a Thermal-Lite. This is a for a fraction of the price as we just check from the inside
New-Build Thermography Surveys.
Our “Thermal-Lite” is an opportunity for us to check for heat-loss (internally), offered as a bolt-on service when booking.
We have been carrying out thermal heat loss surveys on newly built properties for the past 7 years and have discovered hundreds of houses with missing cavity wall insulation, missing or poorly laid loft insulation, thermal bridging, draughts, inefficient heating systems and cold air infiltration.
We are the only nationwide snagging company that is qualified in Building Thermography. This is important because many snagging companies try to copy what we do, but they don’t know what they are doing and are misdiagnosing issues. To do thermal heat loss surveys properly you need to conduct them in the correct conditions, use calibrated high-end thermal cameras and have the knowledge and training to know what to look for / what to dismiss.

We offer expert thermography surveys to find those unseen culprits, helping you save money on heating bills and ensure optimal home comfort. Discover the unseen and optimise your efficiency!
What we look for:
Our Thermal-Lite aims to identify thermal issues in your house such as draughts, missing loft insulation, air infiltration behind plasterboard, thermal bridging and underperforming heating systems.
