Professional Strata Leak Investigation Services

Comprehensive leak detection and investigation for strata corporations, property managers, and multi-unit residential buildings across British Columbia.

What is Strata Leak Investigation?

Strata leak investigation is a specialized service designed to identify, locate, and document water intrusion issues in multi-unit residential buildings. Unlike single-family home leak detection, strata investigations require coordination between multiple stakeholders, understanding of shared infrastructure, and precise documentation for insurance and liability purposes.

Our Strata Leak Investigation Process

1

Initial Consultation & Assessment

We begin with a comprehensive consultation with strata councils, property managers, or affected unit owners to understand the scope of the leak issue, review available documentation, and establish investigation parameters.

2

Non-Invasive Diagnostic Testing

Using advanced thermal imaging, moisture meters, acoustic leak detection, and infrared technology, we systematically identify moisture patterns and potential leak sources without damaging building materials.

3

Source Identification & Tracing

We trace water intrusion back to its origin, whether it's a building envelope failure, plumbing issue, membrane breach, or structural defect affecting one or multiple units.

4

Comprehensive Documentation

Our investigation includes detailed photographic evidence, thermal imaging reports, moisture mapping, and technical documentation suitable for insurance claims and legal proceedings.

5

Insurance-Grade Reporting

We provide comprehensive written reports with findings, recommended remediation strategies, and professional opinions on causation and responsibility—critical for insurance claims and dispute resolution.
