Water Analysis
Certified laboratory water analysis for bacteria, lead, nitrates, and a full panel of water quality parameters — so you know exactly what's in your water.
Water Analysis
Water analysis provides certified laboratory testing of your water supply to identify bacteria, metals, and other parameters that affect safety and quality. Whether you need a simple bacteria test for peace of mind, a federally required FHA/VA panel for a loan, or a complete analysis of your water, I collect the samples and deliver clear, lab-verified results.
What's Tested
Bacteria (E. Coli & Coliform)
All three packages test for the presence of E. Coli and total Coliform bacteria in your water supply.
Lead
FHA/VA and Complete analyses test for lead — a serious health concern, especially in older plumbing systems.
Nitrates & Nitrites
FHA/VA and Complete analyses include nitrates and nitrites, common contaminants near agricultural areas.
Full Water Quality Panel
The Complete Water Analysis adds Chloride, Color, Copper, Hardness, Alkalinity, pH Balance, Iron, and Turbidity.
Accredited Lab Testing
All samples are sent to an accredited third-party laboratory for analysis with documented results.

You receive a clear report with your lab results so you can make informed decisions about your water.
