How Our Thermal Imaging Process Works

Our diagnostic process is designed to be completely non-invasive, meaning we never have to lift floorboards or drill into walls to find a fault. Our highly trained technicians use high-resolution thermographic cameras to read the surface temperature of your walls, floors, and ceilings.First, we conduct a brief initial consultation to understand the issues you are facing, whether that involves a drop in boiler pressure, cold spots on radiators, or suspected structural damp. Next, we scan the affected areas. The infrared camera detects subtle temperature differentials, highlighting heat loss gaps or the exact path of an underground water leak in real-time.Finally, we provide a detailed technical report outlining our findings. This provides you with the exact data needed to make informed decisions about repairs or energy efficiency upgrades. Request an emergency call-out now on 01902 953454 if you need immediate fault detection.

Infrared thermography is entirely non-invasive and non-destructive. The equipment simply reads the heat emitting from your surfaces, meaning we do not need to lift floors or drill into your walls to locate a hidden issue.How long does a typical heat loss survey take?For a standard domestic property in Penkridge, a comprehensive thermal survey usually takes between one and two hours.

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.
