How fast do I get results?
You'll get results for most test panels in 3-5 business days after your samples arrive at the laboratory. Some tests can take longer.

Although rare, delayed results sometimes occur due to holidays, or particular issues with a sample or an instrument.

Why test my drinking water?
We spend thousands of dollars a year performing maintenance on our homes, but how often do we think about the health and safety of our drinking water? There are multiple reasons now may be a good time.
Reasons to test your drinking water
Changes in Color or Odor
There are many reasons your water may be yellow, brown or smell like rotten or sulfur. Some of those reasons are safe, others not so much, but there is only one way to find out.
Before Installing a Filtration System
Before spending thousands on water treatment, ask yourself what are're actually treating. Understanding what's in your water can narrow your choices and save you money in the long run.
Local Water Quality Concerns
Everything's from natural disasters (floods, hurricanes, wildfires) to municipal mismanagement can allow contaminants to creep into your water supply. And local governments are not always quick to be transparent.
Old Plumbing or Infrastructure
The age of our homes and pipes have a heavy impact on our water quality. Drinking water traveling through old pipes can pickup lead, copper and bacteria along the way.
Family Health & Safety
Contaminants in our drinking water can cause everything from chronic illness to pregnancy complications and often exist without visible evidence. Testing is the only way to provide peace of mind.
