Well and water testing.
If the property is on a private well, nobody is testing the water but you. There is no utility monitoring it, no annual report, and no notification when something changes upstream.

Why it matters here
Private water has no safety net.
Across the Upper Peninsula, Northern Wisconsin and rural Michigan, private wells are the norm rather than the exception. Municipal supply is tested and reported on continuously; a private well is tested when somebody decides to test it.
Water quality can also change — after heavy rain, after nearby construction, after a septic system fails somewhere uphill. A test at purchase gives you a baseline as well as an answer.
What you get
Three things this buys you.
Two to three hours on site for a typical property, and the report within 48 hours. If the utilities are off we bring propane and a generator and power the building up rather than reporting it as unverified.
A baseline, not just a pass
The result is the record you compare against if something changes later.
Run with the inspection
Sampled during the same visit, reported in the same document.
Independent of any treatment seller
We do not sell filtration, so the result is not a sales lead.
Where we draw the line
We inspect. We do not repair.
Our code of ethics forbids our inspectors from performing repairs, or from estimating repair costs, on a property they have inspected. An inspector who can profit from the problems he finds has a reason to find them.
You get a plain account of what is wrong and how serious it is. A licensed contractor prices and fixes it, and we will come back and re-inspect the work at a minimal fee.
