Pinhole Leak Tracing in Bowen Island

Pinhole failures in copper and galvanized supply lines are the silent destroyers of older Vancouver and Burnaby homes. They drip continuously, often for months, before the damage becomes visible. We trace them using a combination of high-sensitivity acoustic listening, ultrasonic equipment and inline pressure-decay testing. If you've found a damp spot, a recurring stain or a hot-water bill that's climbed for no clear reason, pinhole tracing is the right starting point. The work produces a documented location and condition assessment, not a guess about which fitting might be at fault.
