Thermal imaging survey for Leicester properties
If your property is in Leicester or the LE1 district or nearby Oadby, Wigston Magna and Loughborough, it is within our Leicestershire coverage. Leicester is one of the main towns we cover in Leicestershire.
A survey in Leicester 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 Leicester property is plain English: what we found, what it means and what, if anything, to do next.
Local weather affects which walls can be filled. Much of Leicestershire 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 Leicester, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
