Environmental & Home Testing

A good look at what you can’t see

It takes more than a trained eye to determine if a home is truly safe. So we offer the one-stop-shopping convenience of a full range of environmental tests. Just ask and we’ll get the tests started on the day of your inspection. And you won’t need to bother tracking down multiple people to get the answers you need.

Arsenic in Water

If your family gets drinking water from a private well, do you know if your water is safe to drink? What health risks could you and your family face?

Radon in Air

Nearly 1 out of every 15 homes in the United States is estimated to have an elevated radon level (4 pCi/L or more).

Well Flow

Homes in rural areas often rely upon a well or spring for drinking water. A water flow tested determines if the supply will meet the needs of the household.

Lead in Water

If your family gets drinking water from a private well, do you know if your water is safe to drink? What health risks could you and your family face?

Radon in Water

If you have a private well the US EPA recommends testing your drinking water for radon.

VOC’s

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted as gases from certain solids or liquids and are consistently higher indoors (up to 10x higher) than outdoors..

Uranium in Water

Uranium occurs naturally in some bedrock and groundwater. Because of this some wells are susceptible to uranium contamination.

Termites & Other Pests

Termites rarely emerge from food sources through which they are tunneling. Most people are not aware they have termites until they see a swarm.

Video Septic Testing

Buying a home with its own septic system? A video inspection can identify hidden problems in the tank, pipes and fields that could cost thousands later on.
