How Our Thermal Imaging Process Works

We have designed our thermal imaging service to be completely stress-free and non-disruptive for your property. Our expert Gas Safe registered engineers use state-of-the-art infrared cameras to safely see what is happening behind your walls, ceilings, and floors.1. Initial Consultation: We discuss the specific issues you are experiencing, whether it is a suspected water leak, a draughty room, or a general energy efficiency survey requirement.2. Non-Destructive Infrared Scan: We conduct a thorough sweep of the property using high-resolution thermal imaging equipment. This allows us to map temperature differentials, instantly highlighting insulation gaps, damp patches, or leaking pipes behind surfaces.3. Detailed Reporting & Solutions: Once the Cannock Chase thermal imaging survey is complete, we provide a comprehensive report outlining our findings. Because Fact Services is a full-service plumbing and heating company, we do not just hand you a report; we can immediately propose and execute the necessary repairs to resolve the issue permanently.

The benefits of our infrared camera inspection include:Energy Efficiency & Cost Savings: By pinpointing exact areas of heat loss and insulation failure, we provide the actionable data you need to target improvements and permanently reduce your heating bills.Non-Invasive Leak Detection: Hidden pipe leaks can cause devastating damage over time. Our infrared leak detection spots underground and underfloor water leaks instantly, saving your flooring from unnecessary exploratory damage.Early Damp Detection: Moisture holds a different thermal signature than dry materials.

What Our Clients Say About Fact Services

"Called Fact Services when our Worcester boiler broke down in the middle of the night. The Gas Safe engineer arrived within the hour, diagnosed the fault immediately, and had our heating back on before morning. Genuine, professional, and very fairly priced. Highly recommend them!"

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

"Fact Services installed a brand new gas interlock system and issued a CP42 safety certificate for our restaurant kitchen. Top-class commercial gas engineers—they knew exactly what the building controls required and worked around our opening hours to minimize disruption. Great honest tradesmen."

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our professional thermal imaging and leak detection services in Wolverhampton & West Midlands and across the West Midlands.

Can thermal imaging find a water leak under my floor?

+

Yes, it is one of the best tools for this. If you have a leak in a hot water pipe or an underfloor heating system, the heat from the escaping water spreads through the flooring material. Our cameras see this "heat signature," allowing us to identify the leak's location without any digging.

What is the best time of year to have a thermal survey?

+

While we can find leaks year-round, the best time for a heat loss survey is during the colder months (typically October to April). This is because we need a significant difference between the indoor and outdoor temperatures to see clearly how the building is losing heat.

How long does a typical survey take?

+

For a standard three-bedroom house in Wolverhampton, a survey usually takes between 1 and 2 hours. This gives us enough time to scan all rooms, check the loft space, and inspect the exterior of the property.

Do I need to do anything before the surveyor arrives?

+

To get the best results, we recommend turning your heating on a few hours before we arrive to make sure the building is thoroughly warmed through. We also ask that you clear any clutter away from external walls or radiator areas so we have a clear line of sight for the camera.

Will I get a written report after the visit?

+

Yes. We provide a detailed report that includes the thermal images captured during the visit, along with an explanation of what those images mean and our expert recommendations for any necessary repairs or improvements.
