Concrete Scanning Leak Detection in Burnaby, BC
Burnaby's mix of older single-family neighbourhoods and rapidly growing multi-family complexes presents diverse leak detection challenges. The city's hillside properties on Burnaby Mountain require special attention to drainage and retaining wall moisture issues. Burnaby's mix of post-war single-family homes, 1970s low-rise apartments, and new high-rise developments creates varied leak detection challenges across the city. Areas near Burnaby Mountain and the Deer Lake watershed have high water tables that contribute to foundation drainage issues. Strata properties are particularly prevalent in Burnaby, with many complexes built during the 1980s and 1990s now requiring building envelope assessments and leak investigations for depreciation reports.

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 anchoring into concrete, scanning identifies the position and depth of reinforcing steel (rebar), post-tension cables, electrical conduits, in-floor heating tubes, and any voids or delamination within the slab. This service is essential for preventing catastrophic strikes of post-tension cables — which can fail catastrophically — and for locating the safest path for core drill penetrations or slab cutting for leak repair access.
