Residential Leak Detection in Vancouver

Most homeowners come to us with the same problem: a leak somewhere, no clear source, and a plumber asking which wall to open. Residential leak detection is the methodical work of finding the leak without breaking the home. We bring acoustic listening, thermal imaging, tracer gas, moisture metering and the experience to combine them. Most residential calls are resolved in a single visit. The output is a marked location, a plain-language explanation, and a report your plumber and insurer can both work from.

What bc water leaks typically finds in Vancouver

Same-day leak response across every Vancouver neighbourhood, downtown to the eastside.

Vancouver's built environment — high-rise concrete towers, wood-frame walk-ups, character single-family homes and pre-war duplexes — shapes how residential leak detection is delivered locally. Vancouver mixes 1910s heritage homes with 60-storey concrete towers, so leak investigations vary enormously between properties. Heritage neighbourhoods like Kitsilano and Strathcona tend to show old copper and galvanized failures; downtown and Yaletown towers more often have slab penetrations and envelope failures behind window-wall systems.
