Thermal imaging survey for Trowbridge properties
Trowbridge sits in Wiltshire, around 25 miles south-west of Swindon. We work across the BA14 district, including nearby Chippenham, Swindon and Salisbury.
Where a Trowbridge wall shows cold patches or damp, the survey targets those areas first rather than sampling at random. Every inspection point in Trowbridge is photographed and logged, so you have a record to show a buyer, lender or contractor.
Exposure matters for every cavity wall. Wiltshire 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 the rules side, if cavity wall insulation follows in Trowbridge, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.
Rules in England

What thermal images can and cannot show
They show patterns, not proof. A cooler stripe inside might be missing fill, a cold bridge at a lintel or simply a radiator switched off. That is why we pair the images with borescope checks before recommending any work.
