Older Homes in Burnaby Heights and Edmonds

Burnaby's established neighbourhoods tell the story of the city's growth over the past seven decades. Homes in Burnaby Heights, Capitol Hill, and Edmonds were largely built between the 1940s and 1970s, and many still operate on their original plumbing systems. Cast iron drain stacks, galvanized water supply lines, and clay sewer laterals are common discoveries when we open walls or excavate around foundations. These materials served their purpose for a time, but after 50 to 70 years of continuous use, they corrode, crack, and develop root intrusions that lead to slow drains, water damage, and costly repairs if left unaddressed. HYDROPRO provides thorough inspections and foundation repair services to address water infiltration caused by deteriorating pipes and cracked basement walls in these older properties.

New Highrise Developments and Modern Plumbing Demands

Burnaby is also one of Metro Vancouver's fastest-growing cities, with towering residential developments transforming the Metrotown, Brentwood, and Lougheed Town Centre areas. New construction brings its own plumbing challenges, from ensuring proper water pressure on upper floors to connecting complex drainage networks to the municipal system. Our team works with builders, developers, and new homeowners to install, inspect, and maintain plumbing systems that meet current BC Plumbing Code requirements. When it is time to replace a builder-grade hot water tank that has reached the end of its warranty period, HYDROPRO supplies and installs energy-efficient models sized to meet your household's demand.

Burnaby Mountain and Hillside Drainage Solutions

The terrain around Burnaby Mountain, SFU, and the neighbourhoods of Forest Grove and Lakeview-Mayflower presents unique drainage concerns. Rainwater naturally flows downhill, and properties on or near slopes receive substantial runoff during the rainy season. Without a properly functioning drainage system, that water pools around foundations, saturates soils, and creates hydrostatic pressure that pushes moisture through basement walls and floor slabs. HYDROPRO installs French drain systems that intercept subsurface water before it reaches your foundation, channelling it safely to the storm sewer or a designated discharge point. Combined with a reliable sump pump installation, these systems keep basements dry even during the most persistent winter storms.

Heavy Clay Soil and Its Impact on Plumbing

Much of Burnaby sits on dense, heavy clay soil that retains moisture and expands when wet. This type of ground puts constant lateral pressure on buried pipes and foundation walls, and it does not drain naturally the way sandy or loamy soils do. Clay soil conditions make professional drainage design especially important. A generic, one-size-fits-all approach simply will not work in Burnaby's ground conditions. Our plumbers evaluate your property's soil composition, grading, and water flow patterns before recommending a solution, whether that involves regrading, installing perimeter drain tile, or upgrading your existing system with modern, root-resistant materials.
