ALBION Thermal Imaging Surveys

At ALBION we have invested in thermography to enhance our Building Surveys. This technology can detect "hidden" defects that no other equipment can. For instance, leaking underfloor heating, leaking flats roofs, missing thermal insulation in walls, roofs or ceilings, defective double-glazing, over-heating electrical connections or fittings, etc.
Even incorrectly installed E glass can be detected, a common fault in commercial and educational buildings.
Note that outside conditions and the time of day can be critical for certain thermal-imaging surveys.

Welcome to Albion Building Consultants The practice was started in 1994 by Martin Quirke after more than 20 years previously as a senior partner in two separate architectural and building surveying organisations.
