Well Equipment & Water Testing
Understand the Private-Water System Before You Buy
A private well involves both equipment and water quality. TMK helps buyers coordinate the appropriate inspection and laboratory testing so the visible system and requested water parameters are addressed through one scheduling path.
What the Service Includes
Well Equipment Inspection · $350
Accessible well-system components and operation are evaluated within the agreed inspection scope.
Water Testing Options · $275
Choose a full water test without lead or an FHA water test that includes lead. Samples are handled for laboratory analysis according to the selected test.
Who Should Schedule Well and Water Testing
- Buyers purchasing a property served by a private well.
- Owners preparing to sell or documenting current water quality.
- Clients with questions about pressure, visible equipment, staining, odor, or prior test history.
- Transactions with lender or program requirements that specify particular water parameters.
Private Wells Require Property-Specific Information
Well depth, geology, equipment age, pressure controls, treatment equipment, and nearby land use vary from property to property. A neighbor’s result cannot establish the condition of the well or water at the home you are buying. Confirm any lender-required test panel before scheduling.
What You Receive
Equipment Context
The inspection addresses accessible components in the agreed scope and explains visible conditions that merit service or specialist evaluation.
Laboratory Results
When water testing is ordered, you receive the selected laboratory results and an explanation of reasonable follow-up questions.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a well equipment inspection cost?
TMK lists a well equipment inspection at $350. Final pricing can vary with the property and requested scope.
Which water tests are available?
TMK lists a full water test without lead for $275 and an FHA water test that includes lead for $275. Confirm lender requirements before choosing a panel.
Can the well and water services be scheduled with a home inspection?
Yes. Request them when booking so access, timing, and sample handling can be coordinated.
Does a passing water test guarantee future water quality?
No. A laboratory result reflects the sampled water and selected parameters at that time. Conditions can change, and no test covers every possible substance.
Do you repair pumps or treatment equipment?
No. TMK provides inspection and testing information and may recommend a qualified well contractor, plumber, or water-treatment professional when further evaluation is appropriate.
