Detailed water testing reports.
We make results simple. Your personalized Tap Score Report™ makes it easy to understand exactly what’s in your water and what you can do about it.
What does your report include?
Your Personal Tap Score
Our unique algorithm considers your water’s aesthetics, impact on your health, impact on your plumbing and how it compares to local and federal safety benchmarks to create a score for your water quality.
Contaminant Breakdown
Depending on the testing kit you choose, we will analyze every contaminant detected in your water and provide an evaluation on whether they exist at safe or potentially harmful levels.
Impact On Your Home and Health
Your report will outline any risks your water may pose to your health and safety, the impact it may have on your plumbing (or your pipes’ impact on your water) and what may be causing any undesirable smell, taste, or color.
Treatment Recommendations
We match your test results with water treatment technologies that will help improve your water quality if needed.

Have questions
about results?
While your report is designed to be simple and actionable, we have a team of scientists ready to help should you have any questions about your results or what to do next.
How fast will I get my results?
Most people receive results within 3-5 business days after the lab receives their sample. However, some tests may require additional analytical time so be sure to check each kit’s product page for the most accurate estimate.
What do I do after I get my report?
While we do not sell our own treatment products and remain 100% impartial, every Tap Score report comes with treatment considerations based on the quality of your water.
What test do I need?
When in doubt, we recommend that everyone start with one of our CORE KITS, which test multiple contaminants within a single test and are designed specifically for your drinking water source.
Are Tap Score labs certified?
Every lab facility in our network is certified with accreditations ranging from ISO to NELAC/ELAP, Direct State, DoD, DoE, DoH and beyond. Need a specific certification? Let us know so that we can meet your needs accordingly.
