iRed Certified Thermal Imaging

Thermal Building Surveys

Infrared imaging that reveals what the eye cannot. Damp, heat loss, draughts and mould risk, pinpointed and documented before they cost you.

Is your home hiding a problem?

The silent problems behind your walls.

Damp, water ingress, leaking roofs, heat loss, draughts and mould risk. These are the silent problems that damage your home, cost you money and affect your health, and most of them are completely invisible until it is too late.

A Land by Drone thermal building survey uses professional infrared imaging to find every one of them, without drilling, without scaffolding and without disruption to you or your home. You get a full written report with exactly what we found, where it is and what you need to do about it. Surveys are conducted by an iRed certified Thermal Imaging professional.

What a thermal survey reveals.

  • Damp & moisture exactly where it is and how far it has spread
  • Water ingress & leaking roofs pinpointing the source, not just the symptom
  • Heat loss where your heating is escaping and costing you money
  • Draughts & air leakage gaps, failed seals and cold bridges
  • Mould risk areas cold spots where mould is likely to develop
  • Insulation failures missing, damaged or inadequate insulation
  • Window & door seal failures before they cause further damage
  • EPC support energy improvement evidence and recommendations

Every finding is documented in a full written report with annotated thermal images, so you know exactly what needs fixing and why.

Yes. Thermal imaging identifies moisture and the cold areas where mould is likely to form, pinpointing exactly where the problem is and how far it has spread.

Yes. A thermal survey provides clear evidence of heat loss, insulation gaps and air leakage, supporting EPC improvements and helping you target energy efficiency upgrades where they matter most.

Not necessarily. Much of the survey is carried out externally. We will confirm any access requirements with you when booking, so the process is as straightforward as possible.

"I recently used David to inspect a couple of problematic leaks in my son's house. He arrived within 24 hours of my call and flew the drone to inspect the whole roof and outside of the house. He successfully located the source of the leaks, provided photos and a report. He even climbed into the loft space to take photos so I was able to see clearly for myself. This saved a lot of time and money. I would thoroughly recommend without hesitation. Excellent service, knowledgeable and a very nice chap too!"
