Our In-House Lab

Are you trying to troubleshoot your water's bad taste or foul odour?

Do you have a water system that recommends occasional water tests?

Our In-House Lab provides affordable water testing for any situation that doesn't require a full Potability or specialty test.

Once a test has been performed, our qualified staff will work with you to determine the best plan to ensure your water's quality always meets your standards.

We offer two types of tests:

Contact us for any more information, questions, and how to take the water samples for either of these tests.

We can usually have your water test results back to you within 24 hours.
