Concrete Scanning in Burnaby

Before sawing, coring or drilling into a structural slab, wall or column, GPR scanning identifies the rebar, post-tension cables, conduit and any voids hidden inside. The cost of cutting blind into a PT cable or a live conduit is enormous — both in repairs and in safety. We deliver concrete scans for general contractors, MEP trades, plumbers, electricians and forensic engineers. Marks are placed directly on the surface at the scan, with a thickness estimate where called for. We work in occupied buildings, on tower podiums, and on infrastructure jobs where downtime is unaffordable.

What pipe gpr typically finds in Burnaby

Pre-construction utility locates for Skytrain-adjacent projects, concrete scanning for tower additions and TI work.

Burnaby's built environment — concrete high-rises around Metrotown/Brentwood, 1960s–80s single-family residential, light-industrial in Big Bend — shapes how concrete scanning 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.
