Home Health Diagnostic Survey in London
A comprehensive whole-home diagnostic assessment combining visual inspection, thermal imaging, moisture, humidity and airflow measurements to identify the root cause of building problems. Specialist building-performance diagnostics across London — E1-E20 · N1-N22 · NW1-NW11 · SE1-SE28 · SW1-SW20 · W1-W14 · WC1-WC2 · EC1-EC4.
What we typically diagnose across London.
RetrofitIQ provides Building Performance Diagnostics & Remediation across Greater London — Investigate, Diagnose, Design, Remediate and Verify. From the solid-wall Victorian terraces of Hackney and Camden to the warehouse conversions of Wapping and the new-build estates of Stratford and Canary Wharf, we deliver measured, building-physics-led results.
- Single-skin solid masonry walls with U-values around 2.0-2.2 W/m²K — typically 60-70% of the total heat-loss budget
- Uninsulated concrete lintels driving cold band around every window
- North-facing rooms and corners falling below dewpoint in winter
- Single-glazed and early double-glazed bay windows with chronic surface condensation
- Original suspended timber floor perimeters leaking through skirting gaps

What's included
- On-site visual inspection of the property and reported issues
- Thermal imaging survey of suspect areas (walls, ceilings, junctions, windows)
- Moisture readings on affected substrates
- Indoor relative humidity and surface temperature analysis
- Smoke tracing of suspected air-leakage paths (where required)
- Optional blower door test for whole-house airtightness
- Written diagnostic report with findings, photographs and recommendations
Who it's for
- Homeowners experiencing damp, mould, cold or high bills
- Landlords and housing associations investigating tenant complaints
- Architects and developers commissioning pre-purchase or pre-retrofit surveys
- Property managers needing evidence-based investigation reports
What we commonly discover during home health diagnostic survey investigations
- 01Cold reveals around windows and external door heads
- 02Air leakage through unsealed loft hatches and service penetrations
- 03Localised thermal bridges at wall/ceiling and wall/floor junctions
- 04Hidden moisture trapped within wall or floor build-ups
- 05Inadequate extract ventilation in bathrooms and kitchens
- 06Indoor humidity above 65% RH driving condensation on cold surfaces
- 07Previous retrofit insulation installed with workmanship gaps
Findings reflect patterns observed across completed RetrofitIQ projects — every survey is interpreted in the building’s specific context.

One company. One process. One point of responsibility.
We don’t simply identify problems. We investigate, diagnose, design solutions, carry out the work and verify the results. Book a Home Health Diagnostic Survey and we’ll tell you exactly which remedial works (if any) are actually needed.
