Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR) Leak Detection in Vancouver
Radar mapping of pipes, voids and saturated ground beneath slabs — for homes, businesses and stratas across Vancouver.
Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR) Leak Detection in Vancouver, British Columbia
Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR) Leak Detection in Vancouver is about precision — locating the true source of water so the repair stays small and your dense mix of heritage homes stays intact. As a division of Anyleak.ca, serving British Columbia since 1999, we bring 27+ years of leak-detection experience to every Vancouver property — backed by advanced thermal, acoustic and tracer-gas equipment.
Vancouver is part of Metro Vancouver, an area of dense mix of heritage homes, concrete high-rises and wood-frame condos exposed to heavy West Coast rainfall. Vancouver sits in one of the wettest regions in Canada, and that relentless West Coast moisture means roofs, building envelopes and below-grade walls are under constant pressure — small leaks here escalate into rot and mould far faster than in a dry climate. Ground-Penetrating Radar sends radio pulses into concrete or soil and reads the reflections to map buried pipes, rebar, voids and zones of saturation. Before any leak is excavated, GPR lets us see what is under the surface — so we cut in the right place, avoid hitting utilities, and confirm wash-out around a leaking line.
Our technicians work throughout Vancouver and its neighbourhoods — including Downtown, West End, Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, Yaletown, Gastown — providing non-invasive gpr scanning that pinpoints the problem without unnecessary damage. Every visit ends with a clear, written report you can use for repairs, insurance or strata records.
Our Vancouver gpr scanning process
- 1We pass the GPR antenna over the slab or ground in a grid pattern.
- 2Reflections reveal the depth and path of pipes, conduits and rebar.
- 3Saturated soil and voids created by a leak show as distinct signatures.
- 4We mark utilities and the suspected leak zone to guide a safe, precise dig.

GPR Scanning in Vancouver — FAQs
What can GPR detect?
GPR maps metallic and non-metallic pipes, rebar, conduit, voids and changes in soil moisture — making it ideal for planning a safe, accurate excavation.
Is GPR used alone?
Usually it is paired with acoustic detection: acoustics finds the leak's sound, and GPR confirms the pipe path, depth and surrounding ground before digging.
Do you provide gpr scanning throughout Vancouver?
Yes. We serve all of Vancouver and the surrounding Metro Vancouver, including Downtown, West End, Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant and nearby communities. Call 604-239-9934 to arrange a visit.
