A pre-purchase building inspection should be conducted as a visual inspection. This is in accordance with the Australian standard AS4349.1 inspections of buildings and residential buildings. It is often difficult to precisely identify certain building defects without the aid of specialised equipment. On an average, an inspector inspects the property for anywhere between 1-2 hours as practically is not plausible for them to individually test every roof timber in the roof. Therefore, thermal imaging is warranted to the inspection process. Additional defects can be identified by a competent inspector before they cause significant structural damage. We at Effective Building & Consultancy have adopted thermal imaging to enhance our inspections by using the latest Bullard T3 Max Thermal Imaging Camera, a new, high technological detection system that is quick, effective, and does not inflict any damage to houses.

Infrared thermography operates by measuring the infrared energy of any objects’ surface and produces a detailed visual image showing its temperature profile. It is a non-invasive technology that uses infrared technology to evaluate the building integrity and detect concerns that are not otherwise visible to the naked eye and would typically remain undetected.
A thermal camera inspection is a non-invasive technology that aids our inspector in detecting thermal irregularities inside the building, in foundations such as floors, walls and ceilings. These irregularities can not only indicate a range of building defects but also suggest concealed termite activity.
