Well Water Test
Recommended for comprehensive testing of borehole and well water.
Maintaining a private water supply requires diligent oversight, as the responsibility for ensuring water quality rests with the owner. Unlike mains-fed systems, borehole water is susceptible to fluctuating environmental factors, meaning testing is required to confirm your drinking water remains safe and free from contamination.
Issues can arise from various sources, including agricultural run-off or natural mineral leaching from the surrounding geology. Our analysis provides a detailed breakdown of your water supply, identifying potential risks that are often invisible, such as elevated nitrates or toxic metals like arsenic and uranium. By understanding the specific profile of your water, you can make informed decisions regarding necessary filtration or treatment systems.
Unlike basic DIY water testing options which offer limited accuracy, we analyse your samples in our laboratory. We utilise advanced analytical instrumentation to provide high quality data, including ICP-MS which is the "gold standard" within the industry.

The Water Professor offers a service which will provide you with information about your water and may help you make informed decisions about whether you wish to purchase water purification products.
The information provided by The Water Professor is for personal use. Our services are designed for home testing, as such, the water samples are not taken by certified specialists and therefore cannot be used for official or legal purposes.
If you require certified results (e.g. housing companies or landlords) then water samples will need to be collected by a certified professional, please contact our customer support team to discuss.
