Pre-Excavation Surveys in Burnaby

Pre-excavation GPR surveys are insurance against very expensive mistakes. We mobilize for trenching, micro-piling, micro-tunneling, foundation work, anchor drilling and any subsurface intervention where a strike on a live utility or anchor structure would create a project crisis. The work is fast, the cost is small relative to the consequences, and the deliverable is a confidence-grade marked-up site plan that crews can work from with eyes open.

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 pre-excavation surveys 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.
