Thermal Imaging for Building Inspections
Thermal imaging for building inspections allows us to see what the eye can’t—before problems become costly. Whether you’re investigating water intrusion, missing insulation, or building envelope performance, infrared scanning offers fast, accurate insight without disruption.
What Is Thermal Imaging for Building Inspections?
Thermal imaging (infrared thermography) detects temperature differences across surfaces. For example, these patterns reveal where heat escapes, air leaks in, or water is trapped. Additionally, the technology allows for non-invasive diagnosis—no demolition required.
Why Use Thermal Imaging on Your Building?
- Detect water intrusion, energy loss, and envelope issues early
- Pinpoint leaks around roofs, windows, and curtain walls
- Support QA/QC, commissioning, and insurance documentation
- Meet energy code compliance with visual proof
- Prevent costly repairs by finding problems before damage spreads
As a result, thermal imaging for building inspections improves decision-making and reduces long-term maintenance costs.
Our Thermal Imaging Services Include:
- Infrared scans of exterior walls, roofs, and foundations
- Moisture intrusion detection and diagnostics
- Building envelope performance testing
- Support for expert witness, forensic reports, and litigation
- Post-storm inspections for insurance claims
Case Study: Thermal Scan in High-Rise Apartment
Issue: Residents complained of cold spots and rising heating costs in upper floors.
Solution: Our thermal imaging team found air leaks at sill plates and anchor points on curtain walls.
Result: Targeted sealing reduced heat loss by 28% and significantly improved comfort ratings. Additionally, the work qualified for a utility rebate.
