Water Leak Detection and Repair in Vancouver

We begin by asking when you noticed the problem and what changed, such as the water bill, a ceiling stain, damp drywall, or a meter that keeps moving. We then pressure test the system and narrow down the location with acoustic tools, moisture meters, thermal imaging where appropriate, and a visual check of likely failure points. These include sink shut-offs, water heater connections, washer hoses, ice-maker lines, and copper joints inside walls.

After confirming the location, we remove only the drywall or finish needed for access. We repair the line to BC plumbing code and pressure test it again. Most Vancouver water leak repairs can be completed in one visit.

A water line under a concrete slab can leak for months before damage reaches the surface. Signs include a warm floor where a hot-water line is leaking, a meter that keeps running, an unexplained water-bill increase, or cracks in the slab finish. We use acoustic and thermal tools to locate slab leaks while limiting exploratory damage.
