GPR Scanning Leak Detection in Salmon Arm | AnyLeak

A Closer Look at This Service

Water follows gravity, the path of least resistance, and the buried corridor it sits in, which is why the stain you see is almost never directly above the leak. Understanding where water travels is the entire basis of professional detection work.

A city’s building code, its typical construction era, and its soil behaviour all leave their fingerprints on the leaks it produces. Reading those fingerprints is what makes an investigation accurate on the first visit.

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

The third mistake is assuming the leak is in the same room as the stain. Water travels along structure for surprising distances, and the visible stain is almost never the source. The investigation traces the path before any repair is planned.

What This Costs

Every property is different, which is why pricing follows the investigation plan rather than a menu. The free consultation defines the scope, and the fixed quote follows it. What you are quoted is what you pay.

Insurance and Documentation

For BC policyholders, the practical value is speed: the claim starts with the report already in hand, instead of weeks of back-and-forth while the insurer tries to establish what happened.

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.

What the Report Includes

Reports are dated and structured so that any licensed contractor can take the marked location and proceed directly to the repair. They are also accepted by insurers, engineers, property managers, and, when needed, in dispute processes.

When to Call

Call when the indicator is persistent, when it repeats after a repair, or when it is accompanied by a second indicator. A single passing event can be a coincidence; a pattern is a leak.

How to Prepare the Property

If there is an active leak, the priority is containment: shut off the water at the fixture or main if it can be done safely, move valuables away, and photograph the scene. The technician can be guided by phone while en route.

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.
