Thermal Imaging Survey

About Our Thermal Imaging Survey

London Drainage Services (LDS) offers advanced Thermal Imaging Surveys to detect hidden leaks in underfloor heating and concealed pipework. Using infrared technology, our thermal imaging pinpoints the exact source of leaks, even when water accumulation is visible elsewhere. This non-invasive method saves time and allows our engineers to accurately identify leaks without causing damage to your property.

Thermal imaging can be used indoors and outdoors, providing detailed infrared images that guide our engineers in developing a tailored repair solution. Combined with additional tools like damp meters for accuracy, our surveys offer a comprehensive approach to leak detection. After completing the survey, we provide a detailed report that includes thermal images, analysis, and our repair recommendations, ensuring you have a clear understanding of the issue and next steps.

How Our Thermal Imaging Survey Services Work

Our thermal imaging survey services provide an advanced, non-invasive method to assess the condition of your drainage installation and detect hidden issues without the need for excavation. Using state-of-the-art thermal cameras, our team can quickly identify areas of concern, such as leaks, blockages, or pipework abnormalities, by capturing temperature variations across the drainage system. These thermal variations indicate potential issues that may not be visible through traditional inspections.

We begin by scanning the drainage areas with our high-resolution thermal imaging equipment, capturing detailed images that reveal hotspots or irregular thermal patterns. These patterns help us locate leaks or blockages precisely, enabling us to diagnose problems with minimal disruption. This method is particularly useful for detecting issues in hard-to-reach areas or within walls and underground sections.

After completing the survey, we analyse the thermal images to determine the exact nature and location of any faults. We then provide a comprehensive report outlining our findings and recommending necessary repairs or maintenance actions to preserve your drainage installation. Thermal imaging surveys are ideal for proactive property management, helping prevent costly repairs by identifying issues early and ensuring the efficient, long-term operation of your drainage system.
