Pre-Rehabilitation Survey

Lining (CIPP), spot repairs, pipe-bursting and full replacement are all priced and scoped from condition data. Bad data produces bad scopes — undersized liners, missed laterals, surprise change-orders. Our pre-rehabilitation surveys deliver the condition information rehabilitation contractors and engineering teams actually need: line dimensions, defect locations, lateral tie-ins, joint conditions and any access constraints. This is the most cost-effective step in the rehabilitation lifecycle.

Why Sewer Scans for pre-rehabilitation survey

Sewer Scans is a sub-division of Leak.ca, the Greater Vancouver leak detection company trusted since 1999. Every site visit is delivered by certified technicians using calibrated equipment, with documented findings formatted for insurance, engineering and procurement use.

We don't sell remediation. Our role is independent detection and assessment — the data you and your professional team work from.

Pairs well with

Clients booking pre-rehabilitation survey often combine it with CCTV Sewer Inspection or Sewer Leak Detection — particularly when the underlying issue spans multiple systems or when documentation needs to support a broader investigation.

How to prepare for your visit

1. Document what you're seeing. Photos, dates, sounds, water-bill changes, anything unusual. The more we know in advance, the faster we can locate.
2. Clear access to the suspected area. Move furniture, stored items, and rugs. Non-invasive methods still need clear sightlines.
3. Have system history ready. Recent plumbing work, prior leaks, renovations, age of property, prior insurance claims.
4. Confirm the email for your report. Photo-linked report delivered within 48 hours (often same-day for residential).
