Water Quality Testing

Even water that appears clean and comes from a domestic mains supply can become contaminated before it reaches your tap. Ageing pipework, disrupted mains infrastructure, or poorly maintained household storage tanks can all introduce harmful microorganisms into your water supply.

Testing your water at least once every 12 months is essential for peace of mind. Different types of water in the home carry different risks: water used for washing, particularly in showers, can harbour Legionella, a bacterium linked to serious respiratory infections. Drinking water, on the other hand, can become contaminated with E. coli, a clear indicator of faecal pollution, which poses significant risks to infants, older adults, and anyone with a weakened immune system.

Regular, professional water testing ensures your household water remains safe, clean, and healthy protecting you and your family all year round.
