Thermal imaging survey for Gillingham properties
Our Kent coverage takes in Gillingham (ME7) and nearby Chatham, Rochester and Strood. It is about 9 miles north of Maidstone.
Buyers and sellers in Gillingham often book this check when a survey report or EPC raises questions about the walls. Where a Gillingham wall shows cold patches or damp, the survey targets those areas first rather than sampling at random.
Wind-driven rain is the first thing the surveyor weighs up. Much of Kent 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 compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Gillingham, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
