Local water testing

Water testing in Warsaw and the municipalities of Mazovia

Around Warsaw a great many homes rely on their own wells, and water quality can differ from one municipality to the next (the same aquifer, yet results that look like they come from two different planets). We travel to you to collect samples: Józefów, Otwock, Piaseczno, Konstancin-Jeziorna, Piastów, Pruszków, Legionowo and the surrounding municipalities. The analyses are carried out by a PCA-accredited laboratory.

Water testing: price

The cost depends on the range of parameters, the number of samples and the travel involved. A basic test (microbiology plus physicochemistry) costs less than one extended to cover heavy metals or pesticides. We give you a quote once the scope is agreed, usually within 24 hours. We have set out specific price ranges for wells in our article on how much a well water test costs.

Water testing for Sanepid

Do you need a result for Sanepid? We carry out testing for building handovers, catering businesses, medical practices, nurseries and kindergartens, and to confirm that water is fit to drink. The laboratory holds PCA accreditation, so the report is recognised by the district sanitary inspectorate and the sanitary supervisory authorities.

Well water in your area

A well in a municipality near Warsaw usually brings the same set of problems: iron, manganese, nitrates and bacteria. We have described the full test scope and prices on a dedicated page well water testing, and once we have the results we will select a filter or a treatment station.
