Professional Water Testing for Boreholes and Private Supplies
Understand the quality and characteristics of your water with appropriate sampling and independent laboratory analysis. We arrange testing based on your water source, intended use and any specific concerns.
Understand What Is in Your Water
Water can appear clean, clear and odour-free while still containing minerals, microorganisms or other substances that cannot be identified without laboratory analysis.
Strata Co can arrange the collection of water samples from boreholes and private water supplies and submit them to an appropriate independent laboratory. The testing package is selected according to how the water will be used and any known water-quality concerns.
