Ground Microphone Surveys in Surrey

Once correlation has placed a leak within a metre or two, a ground microphone walks the surface to refine the location to within centimetres. This is the surface-pinpointing step that takes correlation results from "about here" to a single saw-cut spot on pavement or a single shovel cut on soil. We carry both fluid-coupled and electronic ground microphones suited to different surface types — asphalt, concrete, grass, gravel — and we operate them as part of an integrated survey, not as a standalone trick.

What acoustic leak detection typically finds in Surrey

Common-property risers in large townhouse strata complexes, distribution-main leaks on the city's growing distribution network.

Surrey's built environment — newer single-family subdivisions, large townhouse complexes, growing City Centre tower district, rural-residential in Cloverdale — shapes how ground microphone surveys is delivered locally. Surrey is BC's largest-growing city. Most leak work here is on construction built 1990–present: large townhouse complexes, big single-family subdivisions, and increasingly tall mixed-use towers in Whalley/City Centre. Cloverdale and the eastern parts retain rural-residential character with private wells and septic.
