Thermal imaging survey for Grangemouth properties
We cover Grangemouth and the FK3 postcode district, including nearby Falkirk, Alloa and Stirling. It is about 2 miles east of Falkirk.
Every inspection point in Grangemouth is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor. A survey in Grangemouth 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. The Forth Valley has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Grangemouth, no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.
