New buildings leak too — a missed flashing lap, an unsoldered joint that holds until pressure cycles, a deck drain roughed in but never connected. In a new BC condo the difference is leverage: construction-defect and home-warranty processes reward precise, independent documentation of what is leaking and from where. AnyLeak.ca provides that independent pinpointing — we’re not the builder, the warranty provider or the envelope consultant; we find the source. Since 1999.
New-building leak patterns
- First-storm leaks at windows, decks and roof transitions — see envelope and deck detection.
- Mechanical connections — fittings, valves and recirculation lines that fail early; see riser leaks.
- Never-connected drains and mis-sloped membranes found with camera inspection and electronic membrane testing.
- In-slab damage from later trades — a screw through a radiant loop; see radiant leak detection.
Documentation that carries weight
For warranty conversations and deficiency claims, an independent written report locating the leak and its extent is far stronger than “it leaks when it rains.” Councils use our findings alongside their warranty and legal advisors; see dispute-ready documentation. (We document conditions — we don’t provide legal or warranty advice.)
FAQ
Should we test before a warranty milestone? Many councils commission inspections ahead of warranty review dates so issues are documented in time; see our inspection programs.
Will you work alongside the builder’s trades? Yes — findings are shared factually so the responsible party can repair precisely.

A Closer Look at This Service
Water does not negotiate. It moves along the path of least resistance, and every day it moves, the damage grows. The question is not whether to investigate; it is when, and the answer is always sooner rather than later.
Local knowledge matters because the same symptom can point to completely different causes in different cities. The interview, the property history, and the site conditions are always weighed together before any instrument is deployed.
The investigation is a quiet, methodical process. Instruments are calibrated on site, readings are recorded, and the technician explains what each step is looking for. There is no demolition, no noise beyond the instruments, and no mess left behind.
How the Investigation Is Delivered
Every investigation follows the same disciplined sequence: consultation, survey, testing, cross-verification, marking, and documentation. The sequence is deliberate, and each step builds on the last.
- Step 1: Consultation to understand the situation and the history
- Step 2: Site survey and indicator mapping
- Step 3: Testing of the suspected systems with matched methods
- Step 4: Cross-verification of the finding
- Step 5: Marking and documentation
- Step 6: Written, dated report
A fourth mistake is hiring a repair contractor to find the leak. Contractors are paid to repair, and their interest is in the work, not in the precision of the location. An independent detection team has no repair to sell, only an answer to deliver.
What This Costs
Pricing for this service in British Columbia depends on the scope of the investigation: the systems to be tested, the size of the property, and whether the finding is confirmed with a second method. A fixed quote is provided before any work begins, so there are no surprises on the invoice.

Insurance and Documentation
The report produced after a this investigation investigation is written with insurers in mind. It documents the cause, the extent, the methods used, and the readings taken, so the adjuster has everything needed to process the claim.
Insurance claims fail most often because of missing documentation. A dated, photographed, method-by-method report removes that failure point and gives the adjuster a professional document they can rely on.
What the Report Includes
The written report is the deliverable that separates professional detection from a good guess. It includes the confirmed location, the depth where applicable, the readings, the photographs, the methods used, and an interpretation of the cause and contributing factors.
You keep the report. It documents the finding, the condition at the time of the investigation, and the guidance for the repair, which is useful for warranty, insurance, and future reference.
When to Call
Call when a repair contractor cannot find the source. Blind replacement of pipe, membrane, or roofing is expensive, and it fails when the true cause is elsewhere. The investigation answers the question the contractor could not.
Call when a decision needs documentation: an insurance claim, a real estate transaction, a strata dispute, or a warranty process. Those decisions run on evidence, and the evidence has to exist before the deadline.
How to Prepare the Property
Clear access to the meter, the main shut-off, the water heater, and the areas showing indicators speeds the investigation. A cleared path saves the technician’s time, which is your time on the quote.

Common Questions
Is this service non-invasive?
Yes. Every method used works from the surface and leaves no marks. Nothing is cut, dug, or permanently marked during the investigation.
How accurate is the location?
With cross-verified methods, locations are typically within a metre or less, and slab locations within inches.
Is the report useful for insurance?
Yes. The report documents the cause, the extent, the methods used, and the readings, structured for claims and engineering review.
How long does an investigation take?
Most property-level investigations complete within a day, and the written report follows within one to two business days.
Do you repair leaks?
No. Detection and documentation are the service. The report guides the repair contractor to the exact location.
What does this cost?
The quote is fixed before work begins, based on the scope defined in the free consultation. What you are quoted is what you pay.
Call (604) 269-5325 or email info@anyleak.ca for a free consultation. The report is dated, documented, and written to the standard insurers and engineers expect.
