Home water testing is essential for existing homeowners as well as those considering purchasing a home. We use it daily to wash and work with, and the water we drink nourishes and sustains us. Discovery Home Inspections works with a recognized laboratory to offer Water Quality Testing because everyone deserves safe, clean water.

Home water testing is a specialized test that checks for containments and pollutants such as chlorine, lead, and coliform bacteria in a home’s water supply. If there is a chemical imbalance in the pH is can also be revealed during testing. Water testing is essential because it ensures that a home’s water supply is potable and safe for everyday use. Discovery Home Inspections has the necessary training and equipment to offer your current or future home water quality testing.

Our well flow test determines if the well produces enough water to support your household's water requirements like drinking, washing hands, taking showers, doing dishes, and washing laundry. Unless our water stops flowing, we generally take for granted if a well’s output is sufficient to support our household’s water requirements. If your well doesn’t meet the minimum required levels, we provide you with specific recommendations and next steps.

Whether you’re already a happy homeowner or a buyer ready to purchase your dream home, it’s essential to know that serious issues can occur from wood-destroying insects. Termites, carpenter ants, carpenter bees, powderpost beetles, and other wood-destroying insects lurk beneath the surface for the wood and commonly go unnoticed until they’ve caused substantial damage. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), termites alone cause billions of dollars in structural damage each year.
