Thermal imaging survey for Hereford properties
Hereford is among the towns we cover in Herefordshire, alongside Ledbury, Ross-on-Wye and Leominster. Hereford is one of the main towns we cover in Herefordshire.
Buyers and sellers in Hereford often book this check when a survey report or EPC raises questions about the walls. Every inspection point in Hereford is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Herefordshire 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.
For regulations, if cavity wall insulation follows in Hereford, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

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.
