Hidden Slab Leak Saves Vancouver Family $45,000
Vancouver, BC • Single Family Home

The Problem

The Johnson family noticed their water bill had increased by 300% over three months, but couldn't find any visible leaks. They were concerned about a potential slab leak but didn't want to break up their expensive hardwood floors without certainty.

Our Solution

Using ground-penetrating radar and acoustic leak detection, we pinpointed the exact location of a hot water line leak beneath their concrete slab without any invasive procedures.

  • • Thermal imaging revealed temperature anomalies
  • • Acoustic detection confirmed water flow sounds
  • • GPR mapped the exact pipe location and depth
  • • Provided precise coordinates for targeted repair

Downtown Office Building Avoids $200K Water Damage
Vancouver, BC • 12-Story Office Building

The Challenge

Pacific Tower Management noticed water stains appearing on the 8th floor ceiling, but the source was unclear. With 200+ tenants and valuable IT equipment throughout the building, they needed to identify the leak source quickly without disrupting business operations.

Our Approach

We conducted after-hours thermal imaging surveys across multiple floors and used acoustic detection to trace the water source through the building's complex plumbing system.

  • • Thermal imaging of all floors above the water damage
  • • Acoustic leak detection in wall cavities
  • • Moisture mapping to track water migration paths
  • • Coordinated with building maintenance for minimal disruption

Burnaby Condo Complex Solves Mysterious Balcony Leaks
Burnaby, BC • 24-Story Condominium

The Mystery

Residents on floors 15-20 of Skyline Towers were experiencing water intrusion on their balconies during rainstorms. The strata council had spent $30,000 on various repairs, but the leaks persisted. Insurance claims were mounting, and resident satisfaction was at an all-time low.

The Investigation

Our team used thermal imaging during a controlled water test to trace the exact path of water infiltration through the building envelope. The issue wasn't where everyone thought it was.

  • • Thermal imaging during controlled water testing
  • • Building envelope assessment with moisture mapping
  • • Wind-driven rain simulation testing
  • • Detailed analysis of building construction details

The Discovery

The water wasn't coming from the balcony membranes as suspected, but from failed window seals on the floor above. Water was traveling down inside the wall cavity and emerging at the balcony level, creating the illusion of balcony leaks.
