THERMAL SCANNING
Thermal scanning is a fast, reliable, and non-invasive way to detect temperature variations that may indicate electrical faults, moisture issues, insulation gaps, or mechanical problems. Using advanced infrared cameras, our team can identify hidden issues before they become costly repairs, helping you improve safety, efficiency, and compliance.
What is Thermal Scanning?
Thermal scanning, also known as infrared thermography, is the process of using heat-sensitive cameras to detect variations in surface temperature. Every object emits infrared radiation, which our specialised equipment converts into detailed thermal images. These colour-coded images reveal hot and cold spots, allowing technicians to pinpoint issues that may be invisible to the naked eye.
Thermal scanning is used across a wide range of industries, from construction and manufacturing to property management and electrical maintenance. It’s a safe, fast, and accurate way to identify hidden problems without invasive testing or dismantling equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Thermal scanning is used to detect temperature variations in equipment, buildings, and electrical systems. It can identify hidden faults, leaks, insulation issues, and overheating components before they cause major problems.
Yes! Thermal scanning is a completely non-contact and non-invasive process. It uses infrared technology to measure surface temperatures without emitting harmful radiation or disturbing your equipment.
When performed with professional-grade equipment by trained technicians, thermal scanning delivers highly accurate temperature readings and detailed thermal images for reliable fault detection.
For preventative maintenance, most businesses schedule annual thermal scans. High-risk environments or critical systems may require quarterly or biannual inspections.
Yes. Thermal imaging can locate hidden water leaks in walls, ceilings, and floors by detecting temperature differences caused by moisture.
Absolutely. We provide a detailed report with thermal images, findings, and practical recommendations so you can take immediate action if needed.
MEET AIDAN AND DION
The Founders Of South East Scanning
South-East Scanning was founded by Aidan and Dion, two brothers from Melbourne, who brought together their extensive experience in the built environment and professional services sectors.
After relocating to South-East Queensland, they established South-East Scanning to fill a niche in the building and construction industry, specialising in ground-penetrating radar, concrete scanning, non-destructive testing, and utility locating services. Their background provided a strong foundation for the business, allowing them to offer expert insights and innovative solutions to meet the complex needs of their clients in the region.
At South-East Scanning, our mission is to help our clients understand sub-surface structures and mitigate their risk with our expertise in ground penetrating radar and utility detection. We are a family business with unique insights and a commitment to our clients’ success.
