Thermal imaging survey across Cambridgeshire
We cover 8 towns in Cambridgeshire, including Peterborough, Cambridge, Wisbech, St Neots, Huntingdon and more.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Much of Cambridgeshire sits in the more sheltered driving-rain zones of the UK, which widens the choice of fill. Exposed elevations, coastal sites and high ground still get checked wall by wall.
Where a Cambridgeshire wall shows cold patches or damp, the survey targets those areas first rather than sampling at random. Buyers and sellers in Cambridgeshire often book this check when a survey report or EPC raises questions about the walls.
Building Regulations in England
Filling an existing cavity wall is notifiable building work in England. Either a building notice goes to building control before the work, or the installer self-certifies it through a government-approved competent person scheme such as CIGA's CWISC scheme. The insulation used must also be suitable for the wall it goes into, which is why the survey checks construction, condition and exposure first.

Useful for
Checking an old installation, planning a top-up, finding where an extension's insulation stops, and giving landlords evidence before and after works.
