Thermal imaging survey for Great Malvern properties
We cover Great Malvern and the WR14 postcode district, including nearby Worcester, Droitwich and Stourport-on-Severn. It is about 7 miles south-west of Worcester.
The written result for your Great Malvern property is plain English: what we found, what it means and what, if anything, to do next. Buyers and sellers in Great Malvern often book this check when a survey report or EPC raises questions about the walls.
Before any material is chosen, exposure is checked. Worcestershire 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.
In terms of approvals, if cavity wall insulation follows in Great Malvern, filling a cavity is notifiable building work and needs a building notice or competent-person self-certification.

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.
