Concrete Scanning Leak Detection in Surrey, BC
Surrey's rapid growth means a mix of new construction and aging properties, with leak challenges varying by neighbourhood. Clay soils in South Surrey can cause foundation movement and pipe stress, while older areas in Whalley and Newton have aging plumbing systems. Surrey is BC's fastest-growing city with a housing stock divided between established neighbourhoods in Cloverdale and South Surrey and rapidly developing areas in City Centre and Newton. The clay soil prevalent in much of Surrey contributes to foundation movement and underground pipe stress, particularly during the seasonal wet-dry cycles. Older neighbourhoods with cast iron and galvanized steel service lines are at higher risk for underground water main and service line leaks.

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.
