Facade Thermal Imaging in Richmond

Facade thermal imaging captures the heat signature of every exterior assembly: walls, windows, parapets, balconies, return-air paths. The technique is most valuable on rainscreen-clad and curtain-wall buildings where moisture and air leakage hide behind the visible cladding. We deliver these for envelope consultants, property managers, and owners scoping facade-restoration projects.

What patio leak typically finds in Richmond

Window-wall investigations on City Centre towers, stucco rainscreen failures on 90s/00s townhomes.

Richmond's built environment — low-rise wood-frame condos, single-family on small lots, City Centre high-rises, agricultural in east Richmond — shapes how facade thermal imaging is delivered locally. Richmond sits at 1 m above sea level on the Fraser delta. The high water table makes slab leaks and basement seepage common, and the dyke-protected drainage system means stormwater issues quickly become structural ones. Construction is largely 1980s–2000s with growing concrete-tower density in City Centre.
