Certified drinking water quality testing for Michigan homes on private wells — bacteria, lead, nitrates and more, lab-tested and delivered inside your inspection report.
Municipal water is regulated and routinely tested. A private well is the homeowner's responsibility alone — Michigan does not require ongoing testing after a well is drilled. If a home has never had its water tested, nobody actually knows what's in it.
The standard indicators of bacterial contamination from surface water intrusion or septic proximity.
Tested against current EPA action levels — critical in older Michigan homes with aging plumbing or service lines.
Common in agricultural areas and a particular concern for infants and pregnant women.
Affects plumbing longevity, water heater lifespan, and whether a softener system is worth considering.
The usual causes of staining, odor, and taste complaints in Southeast Michigan well water.
Every result delivered as part of your inspection report, in plain language — not just a raw lab printout.
Water testing is collected during your regular inspection visit at no extra scheduling — just add it when you book. Already closed, or don't need a full inspection? Water testing can also be scheduled as a standalone service. See full pricing →
Municipal water is already regulated and tested — this add-on is specifically for homes on private wells.
