Our services

Four testing programs, one accredited lab

Whatever the premises needs tested, we attend on site and analyse it at a NATA-accredited laboratory — every result benchmarked against the relevant standard or agreement.

Drinking Water

On-site sampling of the taps people actually drink from — offices, hotels, strata, venues and more. Each tap is analysed as its own result and benchmarked against the Australian Drinking Water Guidelines.

Benchmarked to the ADWG

Trade Waste & Effluent

Discharge testing against your water authority's trade-waste agreement limits — the independent evidence your utility asks for. Typical parameters include pH, fats, oils & grease, suspended solids and metals, scoped to your agreement.

Meets trade-waste agreement limits

Legionella & Cooling Towers

Periodic sampling and compliance testing for cooling towers and warm-water systems, aligned with AS/NZS 3666. Structured for recurring monitoring with consistent reporting.

Aligned with AS/NZS 3666

Recreational Water

Pool, spa and splash-pad water-quality testing for hotels, gyms and leisure venues — sampled on site and benchmarked against the relevant recreational-water criteria.

Pools, spas & splash pads

Need something outside these? One-off or recurring testing for any parameter we don't list as standard — tell us what you're testing for and we'll scope it.

Who we test drinking water for

The premises people rely on

Hotels & accommodation

Reassure guests on request with an independent, lab-certified result for the taps they drink from.

Offices & workplaces

Demonstrate duty of care. Older buildings and long pipe runs are where lead and copper enter at the tap.

Strata & building management

A clear, independent answer for common-area and unit supply — backed by a laboratory.

Gyms & wellness venues

Bubblers, refill stations and kitchen taps — tested and benchmarked so you can post the result.

Cafés, restaurants & venues

Confirm the quality of the water going into food, beverages and customers' glasses.

Real estate & property managers

Independent results for pre-lease, pre-purchase or end-of-tenancy — collected by a third party.

Questions

What businesses ask us

How long does on-site sampling take?

For drinking water, roughly 15–20 minutes per tap once on site — a typical two-tap visit is about 45 minutes door to door. Trade-waste, Legionella and recreational sampling vary with the number of points; we confirm the expected time with your quote.

What happens if a result exceeds the guideline or agreement limits?

Your report explains what was found, what it means, and the typical next steps a property would consider. We don't sell remediation, treatment products or filters, so the recommendations are independent. What you do with the result is your decision — we're here if you'd like to discuss the report.

Do you offer ongoing or periodic testing?

Yes. Many commercial clients test on a recurring basis — annually is common, semi-annually for higher-risk properties, and more frequently for trade-waste and Legionella monitoring. We can structure ongoing arrangements with priority scheduling and consistent reporting. Mention it in your enquiry and we'll scope it.
