Void & Sinkhole Detection in North Vancouver

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.
