Thermal Imaging Services

Advanced thermal imaging technology to detect hidden problems in your property across Neilston, Glasgow, Ayrshire and the Central Belt of Scotland. Find leaks, heat loss, and insulation issues before they become costly repairs.

See What You Can't See

Thermal imaging cameras detect temperature differences invisible to the naked eye, allowing us to identify problems early and prevent expensive damage to your property.

What is Thermal Imaging?

Thermal imaging (also called thermography or infrared imaging) uses specialised cameras to detect heat patterns and temperature variations in buildings. Different temperatures appear as different colours, making it easy to spot problems that would otherwise remain hidden behind walls, under floors, or in ceilings.

Key Benefits of Thermal Imaging

Non-Invasive

Detect problems without damaging walls, floors, or ceilings. No need to lift floorboards or remove plaster unless necessary.

Cost-Effective

Identify the exact location of problems, saving time and money on unnecessary exploratory work and repairs.

Accurate

Pinpoint exact problem locations with precision, ensuring repairs are targeted and effective.

Quick

Fast surveys mean problems are identified quickly, allowing for faster repairs and less disruption.

Common Applications

Hidden Water Leaks

Water leaks behind walls or under floors can cause significant damage before becoming visible. Thermal imaging detects temperature differences caused by water, allowing us to find and fix leaks before they cause major problems. This is particularly useful for:

  • • Central heating pipe leaks
  • • Underfloor heating leaks
  • • Hidden water supply pipe leaks
  • • Shower and bath leaks

Heat Loss & Energy Efficiency

High energy bills? Thermal imaging reveals where heat is escaping from your property. We can identify:

  • • Missing or inadequate insulation
  • • Air leaks around windows and doors
  • • Cold spots in walls and roofs
  • • Thermal bridges in construction

Heating System Faults

If your heating system isn't working efficiently, thermal imaging can quickly identify the cause:

  • • Blocked radiators or pipes
  • • Underfloor heating failures
  • • Boiler distribution problems
  • • Circulation issues in central heating
