Water Testing for Real Estate Transactions
Testing well water prior to purchasing a home is a large part of being an informed buyer. We work to make it fast and easy for every party in the transaction. Sample collection can be arranged with one of our trained field technicians or can be ordered in conjunction with any of our inspections for a discounted price. Fees subject to change.
*To ensure the safety of all parties and our employees during this COVID-19 Pandemic, sample collection defaults to an outside tap. Indoor sample collection may be available with additional steps and precautions taken. COVID Surcharge Fee applies. Please call our office for further details.
