Thermal Inspections In Chesterfield

With extensive experience in thermal surveyance, we have successfully completed projects on large-scale commercial buildings worth millions and unique residential properties, applying the same high-quality standards to every project we undertake in Chesterfield and the surrounding area.

For homeowners and commercial property owners in Chesterfield, employing professional thermal imaging unveils valuable insights invisible to the naked eye.

Our thermographic equipment reveals a range of irregularities within your structures, including:

Heat Loss: Pinpoint areas where valuable energy escapes, leading to higher bills and reduced comfort.
Air Leakage: Identify drafts that contribute to discomfort and higher heating/cooling costs.
Cold Bridging: Detect structural weak points that conduct heat inefficiently.
Defective Insulation: Locate compromised insulation requiring repair or replacement.
Cost Savings: Identify and address energy inefficiencies early on, leading to significant cost reductions on your utility bills.
Comprehensive Roof Assessments: Regardless of your roof’s type (flat, sloped, insulated), we inspect its entirety, uncovering potential weakness, heat loss, and water leakage.

Roofs are critical components of any building construction and must be inspected and assessed regularly so during our assessment we will highlight any significant areas of weakness, heat loss, or water leakage.

Our team will inspect any roof in or around Chesterfield, regardless of whether it is flat, sloped, or insulated.

Moisture and water leaks pose a significant threat to the integrity and longevity of your property. Not only can they shorten the lifespan of your building materials, fixtures, and fittings, but they can also create health and safety concerns for all occupants.

Our thermal imaging cameras offer a powerful solution to detecting leaks and moisture issues before they become major problems.

Unlike relying solely on the naked eye, which often misses issues hidden behind walls or under floors, our equipment provides a clear and accurate picture of potential problems.

Through our comprehensive moisture detection surveys, we can help you:

• Identify hidden leaks and moisture build-up
• Prevent potential damage to your building structure and contents
• Protect the health and safety of your occupants
• Extend the lifespan of your valuable building assets

Whether you own a commercial or residential property in Chesterfield, our experienced team can conduct thorough surveys and provide you with detailed reports. Don’t wait for leaks to become a costly and disruptive problem.

Schedule your moisture detection survey for peace of mind and a safer, healthier building environment.

Maintaining optimal temperatures in commercial freezers and cold stores is crucial for preserving perishable goods and ensuring product safety. However, achieving these low temperatures requires substantial energy consumption, making it essential to identify and address any potential inefficiencies.

Even small heat loss areas, often invisible to the naked eye, can dramatically impact operational costs and shorten the lifespan of building components.

Our cold store thermal testings services, applicable to both new and existing commercial cold storage facilities, are designed to maximise total efficiency and minimise energy consumption.

By neglecting regular inspections and assessments of your cold storage or freezer, you risk:

Increased Cooling Costs: Inefficient operation can lead to significant financial burdens.

Ice Buildup: This poses safety hazards for personnel and damages stored goods.

Moisture Accumulation: Moisture trapped within the structure can compromise the lifespan of materials and insulation, leading to costly repairs or replacements.

Safeguard your investment and ensure optimal performance by scheduling a professional inspection of your cold storage or freezer. Our experienced Build IR staff utilises advanced techniques to identify potential issues and recommend effective solutions.

Electrical component inspection is one of the most established and crucial applications of thermal imaging.

Ignoring potential issues in your electrical system can lead to increased risk of fires, equipment failure, and even fatalities, causing not only financial damage but also serious injuries.

We prioritise the safety of all our customers and aim to ensure there are no potential electrical risks to them post-service. Our thermal electrical surveyance offers thorough inspections of various electrical components to ensure they meet all safety standards. These include:

• Control panels
• Battery banks
• Distribution boards
• Servers
• Switch fuses and isolators
• Switch panels & switchboards
• Transformers

During our surveys, we utilise thermal imaging technology to identify potential problems such as:

Corrosion: Early detection can prevent electrical failures and potential fire hazards.
High Resistance In Fuses & Switchgears: This can lead to overheating and equipment malfunction.
Loose Connections: These can create arcing, increasing fire risk.
Overloads: Overloaded circuits can cause overheating and damage to equipment.
Phase Imbalances: This can lead to inefficient operation and equipment wear-and-tear.

By investing in a thermal imaging inspection, you gain invaluable peace of mind knowing your electrical system is functioning safely and efficiently. We are dedicated to ensuring your systems operate optimally, minimising downtime and potential risks.

Building airtightness regulations are becoming increasingly stringent, and failing an air leakage test can lead to delays, additional costs, and frustration.

At Build IR, we offer comprehensive air tightness services to help you achieve compliance and optimise your building’s performance throughout the construction process.

Our team of experienced professionals provides early-stage air tightness recommendations as we work with you during the design stage to identify and address potential issues. This proactive approach helps you avoid costly rework and minimise the risk of failed initial tests.

We offer three distinct services to cater to your specific needs and provide comprehensive support:

Desktop Design Review: We review your construction plans before construction begins, ensuring air tightness is considered in the design phase.

On-site Design Review: We collaborate with you, your project team, and relevant subcontractors to discuss air tightness considerations and implement adjustments on the spot.

Site Advice Visit: We visit your construction site to assess air tightness and safety concerns. Depending on the complexity, this could involve one or multiple visits.

Our fully qualified and insured team leverages its expertise to provide clear, actionable advice tailored to your specific project. Whether you require air tightness recommendations, design reviews, or site advice for your new commercial or residential property, look no further than Build IR.
