How Our Infrared Inspection Process Works

Our thermal imaging surveys are designed to be entirely non-intrusive, providing clear and actionable insights into the condition of your building fabric and internal systems. When you book an inspection with Fact Services, we follow a precise, step-by-step diagnostic process.First, we conduct a thorough initial consultation to understand the symptoms your property is experiencing, such as cold spots, boiler pressure drops, or visible damp patches. Next, our technicians use state-of-the-art infrared cameras to scan the affected areas. This technology detects minute temperature differences, allowing us to map out underfloor heating systems, trace hidden plumbing runs, and pinpoint the exact source of heat loss or water escape. Finally, we provide a detailed explanation of our findings alongside practical, cost-effective recommendations for repair or improvement.

"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!"

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.
