Technologies We Use
We utilize state-of-the-art equipment and advanced technologies to provide precise, non-invasive leak detection and diagnostics across British Columbia.
Thermal Imaging
Infrared thermography captures temperature differences as small as 0.03°C on building surfaces, revealing hidden moisture, insulation defects, and thermal anomalies. Our professional-grade cameras det
Acoustic Leak Detection
Acoustic leak detection uses sensitive listening devices and ground microphones to amplify the sound of water escaping from pressurised pipes. Water under pressure escaping through a breach generates
Leak Noise Correlation
Leak noise correlation is an advanced acoustic technique that uses two or more sensors placed at accessible points along a pipe (such as hydrants, valves, or exposed stubs) connected to a correlator p
Ground Microphone
Ground microphones are highly sensitive acoustic sensors mounted on a tripod or handheld probe that make direct contact with the ground or building surface to detect leak vibrations. Unlike airborne l
Ultrasonic Leak Detection
Ultrasonic leak detection uses sensors that detect high-frequency sound waves generated by turbulent flow at leak points. These frequencies are above the range of human hearing but are clearly detecte
Sonar Hydrophone
Sonar hydrophone technology uses underwater acoustic sensors to detect leaks in buried or submerged pipes where the leak sound is transmitted through a column of water rather than through the pipe wal
Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR)
Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) uses high-frequency electromagnetic pulses to create cross-sectional images of subsurface conditions. The radar signal reflects off buried objects and changes in materia
Pipe and Cable Locating
Electromagnetic pipe and cable locating uses a transmitter to induce an electromagnetic signal onto a metallic pipe or cable, which is then traced along its path using a receiver. This method accurate
Concrete Scanning
Concrete scanning is a specialized application of GPR technology using high-frequency antennas (1.6-2.6 GHz) to map embedded elements within concrete structures. Before any cutting, coring, or anchori
Tracer Gas Detection
Tracer gas leak detection involves introducing a safe, non-toxic gas — typically a 5% hydrogen and 95% nitrogen mixture — into a sealed pipe or membrane system and then using a sensitive gas sniffer t
Gas Sniffer
Gas sniffers are portable electronic detectors that sense the presence of specific gases at very low concentrations. In leak detection, we use hydrogen-specific sniffers for tracer gas testing and com
Pressure Testing
Pressure testing involves isolating a section of pipe or system and applying controlled air or water pressure to measure its ability to hold pressure over time. A pressure drop indicates the presence
Smoke Testing
Smoke testing uses non-toxic, odourless artificial smoke introduced into drain, vent, or sewer systems under low pressure to visually identify where smoke escapes, indicating a leak path or illegal co
Dye Testing
Dye testing involves introducing a concentrated, non-staining tracer dye into a water system or suspected leak location and observing where the dye emerges to confirm and trace the water path. In pool
Moisture Mapping
Moisture mapping is a systematic process of measuring and documenting moisture content across building materials using calibrated moisture meters and thermal imaging. Readings are taken at grid points
Electronic Leak Detection
Electronic leak detection (ELD) uses low-voltage electrical current passed across a waterproofing membrane to locate breaches. A low-voltage DC current is applied between the membrane surface and the
Data Logging
Data logging involves deploying electronic sensors to continuously monitor and record environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, and moisture content over time. In leak investigations, da
Drone Thermal Imaging
Drone-mounted thermal imaging combines the diagnostic power of infrared thermography with the access and efficiency of UAV technology. Our Transport Canada-certified drone operators deploy thermal cam
Infrared Roof Scanning
Infrared roof scanning is a specialized application of thermal imaging specifically for flat and low-slope roof moisture surveys. The scan is typically conducted at night when the roof surface has coo
