Questions

You will need access to a wellpoint, borehole, or rainwater harvesting setup – we  unfortunately do not install these. In the case of a new borehole or wellpoint being sunk, please allow a few weeks for the water to settle before sampling the water for analysis. If you do not have a groundwater source of your own, you may want to contact your neighbour to discuss sharing theirs.

We recommend using Bemlab in Somerset West – please click here for more information on water testing.

When you receive the results of your test, send them along to us by filling out the form on our Contact page or emailing us on [email protected]
