Thermal imaging survey for Newcastle under Lyme properties
Our Staffordshire coverage takes in Newcastle under Lyme (ST5) and nearby Stoke-on-Trent, Longton and Kidsgrove. It is roughly 2 miles west of Stoke-on-Trent.
Where a Newcastle under Lyme wall shows cold patches or damp, the survey targets those areas first rather than sampling at random. A survey in Newcastle under Lyme gives you facts before anyone drills: what the wall is, what is in the cavity and whether it is sound.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. 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.
On compliance, if cavity wall insulation follows in Newcastle under Lyme, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England
Filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification if insulation work follows.
