Drone leak detection for properties in Sea Island, Richmond. We serve homes, commercial buildings, and industrial facilities in this neighbourhood with the same non-invasive technology trusted by major BC insurers. Built on the Fraser delta — high water table makes leak detection critical for commercial and industrial properties.
Services available in Sea Island
Drone Roof Inspection
4K visual + radiometric thermal survey of any roof — residential, commercial, industrial, or heritage. No walks, no risk.
Aerial Thermal Imaging
Radiometric FLIR-grade thermal mapping for moisture, heat loss, and energy waste. Quantified temperature data, not just pretty pictures.
High-Rise & Façade Inspection
Window-by-window and balcony-by-balcony water infiltration mapping for towers — without rope or swing-stage.
Building Envelope Assessment
Whole-building moisture intrusion mapping. Walls, roof, parapets, junctions — drone-led data feeding into engineering reports.
Commercial Roof Moisture Survey
Locate wet insulation on flat roofs before tear-off. Save the membrane or scope the repair accurately — your call.
Solar Panel Thermal Inspection
Panel-by-panel thermal scanning. Identify failed cells, diode failures, dirt shadows, and junction-box moisture before they damage yield.
Common drone leak issues in Sea Island
- Mystery leaks on the top floor — Water staining on an upper level of a tall building is almost always coming through the roof or wall envelope above. Aerial thermal pinpoints the entry point.
- Aging flat roof, no recent survey — Most commercial flat roofs need a thermal survey every 5 years to catch wet insulation. Catching it early can save the membrane.
- Wet insulation suspected — Water trapped between membrane and deck won't show inside — but it doubles your heating cost and rots the deck. Thermal imaging finds it instantly.
- Strata depreciation report — BC strata corporations require periodic depreciation reports. Aerial roof imagery + thermal is a far better evidence base than visual-only walks.
Why Richmond property owners choose Leak.ca
- No scaffolding, no rope, no roof walks — A 30-minute drone flight replaces a $5,000–$25,000 scaffolding setup or two days of rope-access work. Zero working-at-height risk.
- Transport Canada Advanced RPAS certified — Our pilots hold Transport Canada Advanced RPAS certificates. Fully insured commercial drone operations — required for legal work in BC airspace.
- 4K visual + thermal in one flight — Each inspection captures geo-tagged 4K photo, video, and FLIR-grade radiometric thermal data — all annotated in your report.
- Reports for insurance + strata depreciation — Detailed PDF reports with thermal overlays, moisture maps, and annotated images — accepted by all major insurers, strata councils, and engineering firms.
