Thermal imaging survey for Ashton-under-Lyne properties
Ashton-under-Lyne is among the towns we cover in Greater Manchester, alongside Dukinfield, Stalybridge and Droylsden. It is around 6 miles east of Manchester.
A survey in Ashton-under-Lyne gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound. Every inspection point in Ashton-under-Lyne is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Greater Manchester 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.
As for paperwork, if cavity wall insulation follows in Ashton-under-Lyne, 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.
