Hidden Source Investigation in North Vancouver

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 North Vancouver

Hillside hydrostatic pressure into basements, copper pinholes in mid-century homes, irrigation losses on hillside acreage.

North Vancouver's built environment — 1950s–70s character homes, modernized acreages, growing Lower Lonsdale tower district, Seymour and Lynn Valley wood-frame stock — shapes how hidden source investigation is delivered locally. North Vancouver's heavy rainfall, mountain runoff, and steep terrain combine to make moisture and envelope work a constant. Many properties date from a leak-prone era of West Coast modern construction, with flat roofs, large overhangs, and complex drainage paths.
