Your house is hiding a leak. We find it without wrecking anything.

Physics before saws: thermal imaging reads the temperature signature wet materials produce, moisture meters map the boundary of wetness, and acoustic equipment hears pressurised escape. Cross-referencing those signals locates the source within centimetres — then one small, correct opening replaces the exploratory demolition that ruins renovations.

In order of likelihood for BC detached homes: the buried service line between meter and house, running indoor fixtures, irrigation systems, under-slab piping, and concealed supply lines. The five-minute meter test plus the main-valve split (free; test.leak.ca walks you through both) usually halves the search before we even arrive.

Substantially. Pre-1970s: original galvanized lines at end-of-life. 1980s–90s: poly-B piping with its known failure record. Newer builds: fitting and installation defects more than material fatigue. Era sets the priors; the instruments settle the verdict.

Policies typically cover resulting damage rather than the failed pipe — and they respond far better to early, documented action. Our report anchors the claim: cause, location, and timeline, professionally stated. For the full landscape, see our BC insurance claims guide.

A systematic pass with the right instruments: meter and pressure isolation to confirm and bracket the loss, thermal imaging and moisture mapping through suspect rooms, acoustic listening on supply lines, and whatever the evidence demands next — tracer gas for the stubborn ones. Most homes get a located, marked, photographed answer in a single visit, with a written report your plumber and insurer both use.
