Thermal Imaging Inspections

A building inspection is one thing, but a thermographic inspection is something else altogether.

There’s a lot more going on behind the walls of a house than you realise, and that’s where a thermal imaging inspection comes into play. These non-intrusive and affordable inspections are a great way to see what the human eye cannot. 

Thermographic inspections are becoming more and more popular, especially as a standard prepurchase inspection for people considering buying a new home. The results of the inspection can mean the difference between buying a house and looking elsewhere. 
How does it work
The human eye can only see a tiny section of the Electromagnetic Spectrum; what we call Visible Light. Just below Visible Light is Infrared Light, what we would typically call “heat”. A thermal camera can see this Infrared Light wavelength, and can show us where all that heat is escaping from. 

​Why get a thermal inspection?

"LEAKY HOMES" are two words that strike fear into the heart of any home owner or purchaser.  Thermographic inspections are a great way to see what’s really going on inside your home.

​If you’re considering buying a home, then a thermal inspection is essential. Before you sign on the dotted line, you need to be sure that this is the right home for you and your family. HS Building Inspections can show that there are no serious problems that even the current owners may not be aware of.

With energy costs on the rise, people are looking at how to save money where heating is concerned. A thermal inspection can show you where the heat in your home is escaping to, and how to stop it. From poor insulation to bad wiring, there are many things which could lead to unnecessary energy loss. Fixing these problems not only saves you money, but is also better for the environment.

It can also show warning signs of damp or mould hiding behind the walls that you may not know about. This not only decreases the value of your home, but is a serious health hazard. The problem with mould is, it likes to grow in places that you can’t see. A thermographic inspection saves you from ripping your walls apart.
