Thermal Imaging Surveys in Dublin
Infrared surveys that show where your home loses heat, where insulation is missing, and where damp is likely.
A thermal imaging camera reads the surface temperature of walls, ceilings, floors and windows. When there is a good temperature difference between inside and outside, heat escaping through a weak spot shows up clearly: a gap in attic insulation, an uninsulated lintel, a cold corner where condensation and mould tend to start, or a draught path around a window frame.
We survey inside and out, usually on a cold morning or evening when the contrast is strongest, and produce an annotated report that pairs each thermal image with a normal photo, an explanation of what it shows, and what would fix it. That makes it easy to prioritise spending, and easy to brief whoever does the work.
Thermal imaging is also the simplest way to check insulation that has already been installed. If a cavity fill has gaps, attic insulation has been disturbed, or external insulation has a missed section around a window, it shows on camera.

Thermal Imaging Surveys: common questions
When is the best time for a thermal imaging survey?
Thermal imaging needs a clear temperature difference between inside and outside, so the heating season from October to April gives the clearest results. Early morning or evening surveys avoid sunshine warming the walls.
Can a thermal camera see damp?
Damp areas often show as cooler patches because evaporation cools the surface, and cold surfaces are where condensation forms. The camera points to likely problem areas, which we then check with a moisture meter where needed.
Will it show whether my cavity wall insulation is complete?
Yes, gaps or settled areas in cavity fill usually show as warmer patches on the outside of the wall in winter, because more heat escapes through them. It is a quick way to check older fills.
