Problems such as damp spotting on internal walls is normally caused by a combination of defects such as poor pointing, defective wall ties, defective or missing cavity trays, or a leaking roof in combination with a partial fill or failed cavity wall insulation system.
Our thermographic surveys use the best infrared camera systems in conjunction with a proven process, other non-destructive tools and advanced software evaluation to help understand and document the concern in a systematic and non-invasive way. Whilst borescope inspection may be required in addition in some cases, the thermographic survey of the whole cavity wall system is invaluable to understand the problem at a whole-building level. It can be used to help decide what remedial work may be required and localise any expensive cavity clearing work to the necessary minimum. A thermal imaging survey of type, conducted in line with appropriate standards by a certified civil thermographer and backed up with secondary measurements provides clear visual evidence that is hard to argue with. It can therefore be used to head off a dispute before it escalates.
As we are totally independent, we have no vested interest in suggesting any specific resolution so you can trust ScanTherm to be unbiased and totally professional.
