Thermal imaging survey for Kirkintilloch properties
Kirkintilloch is among the towns we cover in Dunbartonshire, alongside Bishopbriggs, Bearsden and Clydebank. It is about 10 miles east of Clydebank.
Every inspection point in Kirkintilloch is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor. The written result for your Kirkintilloch property is plain English: what we found, what it means and what, if anything, to do next.
Every elevation is judged on its own exposure. Parts of Dunbartonshire 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.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Kirkintilloch, no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.
Rules in Scotland
No building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards if insulation work follows.

What thermal images can and cannot show
They show patterns, not proof. A cooler stripe inside might be missing fill, a cold bridge at a lintel or simply a radiator switched off. That is why we pair the images with borescope checks before recommending any work.
