Void & Sinkhole Detection in Burnaby

Voids and sinkholes don't announce themselves until they fail. Pre-collapse, they're detectable by GPR as anomalous returns in soil density. We deliver void surveys for parking lots, slab-on-grade buildings, civic infrastructure and post-storm assessments. The work produces a referenced map of suspect locations and a recommendation for follow-up — typically targeted coring or geotechnical investigation. For municipal and government clients, this is often a preventive program rather than a reactive one.

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 void & sinkhole 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.
