Hidden Source Investigation in Burnaby

Some leaks don't read as leaks: a water bill that creeps up over months, a stain that returns every spring, a musty smell that never quite goes away. Hidden-source investigation is the methodical work of running every diagnostic in the right order — meter testing, isolation valving, acoustic, thermal, moisture — until the actual source is found. We treat these as engineering problems, not guessing games. When other detection teams have given up, we are typically the next call.

What leak assessment typically finds in Burnaby

Aging poly-B and galvanized supply in mid-century homes, slab leaks in newer concrete towers, irrigation losses on large hillside lots.

Burnaby's built environment — concrete high-rises around Metrotown/Brentwood, 1960s–80s single-family residential, light-industrial in Big Bend — shapes how hidden source investigation is delivered locally. Burnaby's split personality — rapidly densifying tower districts in Metrotown, Brentwood and Lougheed alongside long-established residential pockets — means leak detection here ranges from 50-storey concrete inspections to mid-century bungalow plumbing.
