Masonry Moisture Surveys in Delta

Brick, block and stone facades absorb and trap moisture, particularly on east- and west-facing elevations in Greater Vancouver's climate. Quantitative moisture surveys — using nuclear-density methods, MC sensors and IR — identify saturated assemblies before damage progresses. We deliver these for heritage buildings, mid-rise masonry and institutional facades where understanding water management is a long-term asset issue.

Delta's built environment — single-family in Ladner and North Delta, low-rise development in Tsawwassen, agricultural and industrial in Tilbury and Ladner farmland — shapes how masonry moisture surveys is delivered locally. Most of Delta sits at or below sea level on the Fraser delta, protected by dykes and pump stations. Water-table issues, slab leaks and stormwater inflow into sanitary systems are recurring themes, and utility work has to respect strict drainage and ALR constraints.
