Why neighbors test

Charleston's mix of old pipes, new construction, and coastal well water means what's in your glass isn't always what's on the label.

01

Moving in

New house, unknown plumbing. A baseline test tells you what you're actually working with before you unpack.

02

Something's off

Odd taste, smell, or staining in the sink or tub is your water trying to tell you something. We find out what.

03

Older plumbing

Pre-1986 homes may still carry lead solder. Well water carries its own risks entirely. Both are worth checking.

04

Kids & pets

Small bodies are more sensitive to contaminants. Peace of mind here isn't overkill, it's baseline care.

How it works
