Thermal imaging survey for Gravesend properties
Gravesend is among the towns we cover in Kent, alongside Strood, Dartford and Rochester. It is about 14 miles north-west of Maidstone.
A survey in Gravesend gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound. Where a Gravesend 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.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Gravesend, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
