Every inspection goes beyond a visual walkthrough. Alongside the standard snag list, we carry out a range of deeper diagnostic checks using professional-grade equipment — included as standard in every survey, with no extras or hidden add-ons.

Depending on the property type (flat or house) and access on the day, this can include:

• Thermal imaging — identifying cold bridging, heat loss, and irregular temperature patterns around windows, doors, floors, and walls

• Moisture readings — checking timber, masonry, and wall substrates for elevated moisture that could indicate a hidden leak or damp issue

• Electrical socket testing — verifying correct polarity and earth continuity on accessible outlets

• Mechanical ventilation checks — measuring extract fan airflow rates against expected performance

• Level and structural alignment checks — confirming fixtures, frames, and fittings are true and square

These checks are weather-permitting and vary depending on whether the property is a flat or a house, but wherever conditions allow, they're carried out as part of your standard inspection — not charged separately.

The result is a more thorough picture of the property's condition, catching issues a purely visual snag list can miss.
