What Our Clients Say About Fact Services

Mark T. / Wolverhampton

"We had a persistent damp patch that another plumber couldn't find the source of. Fact Services came out to us in Dudley, used their thermal imaging camera, and pinpointed the hidden leak under the floorboards in minutes. Saved us from ripping up the whole living room floor. Outstanding 24/7 service!"

Sarah J. / Dudley

What is the difference between an EPC and a Home Energy Efficiency Survey?

+

An EPC is a basic requirement for selling or renting a home and is often based on general assumptions about your property type. Our Home Energy Efficiency Survey is a deep dive. We use thermal imaging and physical inspections to find specific faults, like missing insulation or hidden leaks, providing you with a tailored action plan.

How does thermal imaging help find heat loss?

+

Thermal imaging cameras detect infrared radiation, which we see as heat. When we scan your walls, windows, and roof, the camera shows us "cold spots" in blue and "hot spots" in red. If we see heat bleeding out through your walls on a cold day, we know exactly where your insulation has failed.

Will this survey help lower my monthly bills?

+

Yes. Most homeowners find that by following just a few of our recommendations, they can noticeably reduce their gas and electricity usage. Whether it's fixing a draft or upgrading an old boiler, the goal is to keep the heat you pay for inside your home.

How long does the assessment take?

+

For a standard three-bedroom house in Wolverhampton, the survey usually takes between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. This gives us enough time to inspect the heating system, scan the property with thermal cameras, and check the insulation levels in the loft.
