Thermal imaging survey for Hitchin properties
If your property is in Hitchin or the SG6 district or nearby Letchworth Garden City, Stevenage and Harpenden, it is within our Hertfordshire coverage. It is around 14 miles north of St Albans.
A survey in Hitchin gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound. The written result for your Hitchin 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. Much of Hertfordshire sits in the more sheltered driving-rain zones of the UK, which widens the choice of fill. Exposed elevations, coastal sites and high ground still get checked wall by wall.
On the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Hitchin, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
