Local knowledge

Know the ground
in Burnaby.

01

Two kinds of ground

Burnaby Mountain and the surrounding uplands sit on sedimentary rock and glacial deposits, while the Big Bend area along the Fraser River is low floodplain with soft silts and peat that can settle over time.

02

A city of town centres

Burnaby planned its growth around four town centres – Metrotown, Brentwood, Lougheed and Edmonds – which is why tower living here is so concentrated around SkyTrain stations.

The housing we see in Burnaby

Burnaby’s town centres have grown fast since the 1990s, so much of the strata stock is relatively new concrete. Around them, the streets are lined with post-war detached homes, many rebuilt or expanded with suites.

What we watch for here

  • Window seals and condensation in high-rise units
  • Additions and suites in older detached homes
  • Drainage on sloped lots near the mountain
