I spoke with Vanessa - they were honest, transparent with me which I really appreciate. I had some questions about lead testing and they were straight shooters with me. Definitely recommend them and will use their business in the future.

What Is Asbestos Water Testing? 

Asbestos water testing determines whether asbestos fibers are present in your drinking water, well system, or utility lines. While asbestos is primarily known as a building material hazard, it can also enter water systems through:

  • Aging asbestos-cement pipes
  • Contaminated soil runoff
  • Improper demolition or disposal
  • Flooding or environmental disturbances

Testing is essential for homes, businesses, schools, and properties using older infrastructure, private wells, or located in high-risk zones.

When Should You Test for Asbestos in Water?

Testing is recommended when:

  • A regulatory body or lender requests confirmation of water quality 
  • Your property uses asbestos-cement pipes (common in pre-1980 systems)
  • You rely on a private well or spring source
  • There was a recent fire, flood, or excavation incident
  • You’re conducting due diligence for a sale, loan, or redevelopment
  • Other contaminants were recently found in your water

Where Does Asbestos in Water Come From?  

Asbestos can enter your water supply through:

  • Deteriorated asbestos-cement pipes
  • Fill or runoff from contaminated construction debris
  • Broken or disturbed underground lines
  • Floodwaters dislodging ACMs into wells or reservoirs
  • Leaching from illegally buried ACMs

While modern plumbing avoids asbestos materials, older systems—especially in rural or unincorporated areas—may still pose a risk.

Why Water Testing Is Important

Although asbestos in water is less hazardous than inhalation exposure, ingestion of fibers over time may pose risks—especially to:

  • Children
  • Immunocompromised individuals
  • Elderly residents
  • People with preexisting digestive or respiratory issues

Testing:

  • ✅ Verifies water safety for drinking, bathing, or irrigation
  • ✅ Identifies aging infrastructure or unknown pipe materials
  • ✅ Satisfies EPA, CDPHE, and lender requirements
  • ✅ Helps plan system upgrades or mitigation strategies

Our Testing Process 

1. Scope Assessment

We assess your situation by reviewing:

  • Pipe materials or well type
  • Any recent disturbances (excavation, water discoloration, etc.)
  • Locations to test (tap, wellhead, service line, etc.)
  • Applicable CDPHE and EPA guidelines

2. Sample Collection  

We collect water samples using EPA Method 100.2 protocols:

  • Samples drawn from targeted fixtures or supply lines
  • Preserved, sealed, and documented
  • Chain-of-custody maintained throughout
  • Delivered to certified analytical labs for analysis

3. Lab Testing

We use:

  • Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) for high-sensitivity fiber detection
  • Phase Contrast Microscopy (PCM) when applicable

Results include:

  • Asbestos fiber concentration
  • Type of asbestos (if present)
  • Comparison to action levels set by EPA/CDPHE

Turnaround: 5–7 business days, expedited options available.

Preparing for Your Water Test 

To ensure accuracy:

  • Do not run water from the sample point for several hours before the appointment
  • Provide access to wellheads, tanks, or main supply lines if applicable
  • Share plumbing diagrams or details of recent work (if known)
  • Notify residents or occupants of the sampling window

Final Reporting and Next Steps

You’ll receive a digital report that includes:

  • ✅ Sample locations and method used
  • ✅ Lab results: presence/absence and concentration
  • ✅ Explanation of results in simple terms
  • ✅ Next-step recommendations (remediation, retesting, or further investigation)
  • ✅ Documentation formatted for CDPHE or regulatory use if needed

What If Asbestos Is Found?  

  • In municipal systems, you may need to coordinate with the water provider
  • For private wells or pipes, you may be advised to:
  • Replace aging pipe sections
  • Install point-of-use filtration or reverse osmosis systems
  • Retest after infrastructure changes
  • Notify CDPHE or environmental authorities if contamination is significant

We can refer you to trusted contractors and guide your next steps.
