Thermal imaging survey for Motherwell properties
We cover Motherwell and the ML1 postcode district, including nearby Hamilton, Wishaw and Coatbridge. It is roughly 2 miles north-east of Hamilton.
A survey in Motherwell gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound. Where a Motherwell wall shows cold patches or damp, the survey targets those areas first rather than sampling at random.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Parts of Lanarkshire face some of the heaviest wind-driven rain in the UK, especially exposed coastal and upland sites. Here the survey is stricter: some walls suit only certain certified systems, and some should not be filled at all.
For regulations, if cavity wall insulation follows in Motherwell, no building warrant is needed for insulation within a wall, but the work must meet the building standards.
Rules in Scotland
