Sewer Leak Detection in Burnaby

When CCTV shows a suspect defect but it's unclear whether the line is exfiltrating, tracer-gas and dye-testing methods confirm leakage. We pressurize the line with non-toxic tracer gas or run dye through the system and locate the escape point on the surface. This is the methodology for confirming sewer-leak insurance claims and for satisfying engineering questions about specific defects.

Burnaby's built environment — concrete high-rises around Metrotown/Brentwood, 1960s–80s single-family residential, light-industrial in Big Bend — shapes how sewer leak detection is delivered locally. Burnaby's split personality — rapidly densifying tower districts in Metrotown, Brentwood and Lougheed alongside long-established residential pockets — means leak detection here ranges from 50-storey concrete inspections to mid-century bungalow plumbing.
