Thermal imaging survey for Bodmin properties
Bodmin sits in Cornwall, roughly 20 miles north-east of Truro. We work across the PL31 district, including nearby St Austell, Newquay and Truro.
The written result for your Bodmin property is plain English: what we found, what it means and what, if anything, to do next. A survey in Bodmin gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Parts of Cornwall face some of the heaviest wind-driven rain in the UK, especially exposed coastal and upland sites. Here the survey is stricter: some walls suit only certain certified systems, and some should not be filled at all.
On the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Bodmin, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
Filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification if insulation work follows.

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