Underground Leak Detection Across British Columbia
Water mains, service lines, irrigation, storm drains and fire suppression lines — located precisely using acoustic correlation, tracer gas and CCTV so repairs are targeted, not exploratory.
Underground Leak Detection Services
Each underground system has its own detection method — we select and combine the right approach for your pipe material, depth and location.

Frequently asked questions
What types of underground leaks can you detect?
We locate leaks in pressurised water mains, private service lines, irrigation mains and laterals, fire suppression lines, and identify defects in gravity-flow storm sewers and drains using CCTV, acoustic correlation and tracer gas.
How do you find a leak without digging up the whole line?
Acoustic correlation uses two sensors placed at access points along the pipe (valve boxes, meter pits, hydrant connections). The system measures the time difference of the leak sound reaching each sensor and calculates the exact distance from each sensor to the leak — usually to within a metre, enabling a single small excavation.
Can you detect leaks on plastic water mains?
Yes. Plastic pipe (PEX, HDPE, PVC) transmits acoustic signal differently from metal. For smaller plastic lines or shallow-signal scenarios we use tracer gas (hydrogen) which rises through the soil and is detected with a probe at the surface.
Is this a division of Anyleak.ca?
Yes. LeakInspections.ca is a division of Anyleak.ca and part of the Leak.ca family — serving BC since 1999.
