When you need leak detection in Burnaby, you want a plumber who answers the phone live, gives you a real ETA, and quotes the work on site after diagnosis. Mr. Plunger Plumbing & Drainage is that crew. We've been serving Burnaby and the Lower Mainland for years — we know the local building stock, the common failure points, and how to get to your address fast.
Acoustic, thermal, and pressure-test leak detection — we find it before we open anything. Saves drywall, time, and money.
Why local matters for leak detection in Burnaby
Burnaby homes range from older builds with cast-iron drain mainlines and aging galvanized supply lines to newer townhouses and infills with PEX and ABS. Each comes with its own plumbing failure pattern. Our leak detection approach in Burnaby starts with diagnosis — camera inspection where it makes sense, pressure-testing where it doesn't — so we only quote you for what's actually wrong, not the worst-case scenario.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions we hear every day. Don't see yours? Call us — a real plumber will answer.
Do you charge for an emergency call-out?
We charge a transparent after-hours rate that's disclosed before we dispatch — no surprises when we arrive.
How fast can you get to my house in Surrey?
Most Surrey calls reach you in 45–60 minutes. We'll give you an exact ETA when we dispatch.
Are your plumbers licensed and insured?
Yes — every plumber is BC-licensed and we carry full liability and WCB coverage. Our license number is in the footer.
Do you give upfront pricing?
Always. Three things to know: (1) Drain cleaning is billed at a transparent hourly rate — we tell you the rate before we run the cable or jet. (2) Big jobs (sewer line replacement, water service replacement, tankless installs, repipes) get a free on-site estimate with no call-out fee. (3) Everything else is quoted on site after diagnosis. We don't do flat-rate book pricing — every quote is specific to the work in front of us. You always approve the price before any work starts.
What payment methods do you accept?
Visa, Mastercard, Amex, debit, and e-transfer. We email a digital invoice the same day.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes — every job comes with a workmanship warranty. The exact term is matched to the work, since a faucet swap and a sewer line replacement aren't comparable. If something we touched fails inside the warranty window, we come back free. Manufacturer warranty on parts applies on top — we hand off the warranty cards and serial numbers on completion so you know what's covered for how long.
