Thermal imaging survey for Lichfield properties
Lichfield is among the towns we cover in Staffordshire, alongside Burntwood, Tamworth and Rugeley. It is about 27 miles south-east of Stoke-on-Trent.
Every inspection point in Lichfield is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor. A survey in Lichfield gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Staffordshire has a mix of moderate and more exposed sites. Hilltop, coastal and west-facing walls take the brunt of wind-driven rain, so the survey records exposure for each elevation before a material is chosen.
For regulations, if cavity wall insulation follows in Lichfield, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
