What Is a Water Source Inspection?

A water source inspection evaluates the safety, location, and condition of your property’s water supply—typically a well, spring, cistern, or private system. This inspection identifies contamination risks, infrastructure issues, and compliance concerns. EnvioCore’s certified inspectors follow EPA, CDPHE, and local well water safety standards to help ensure your water source is clean, secure, and properly maintained.

My name is Jeff I called today and spoke with Vanessa. I was in a hurry to get asbestos testing as soon as possible. She was more than accommodating. She made several calls to help me coordinate to have testing done. She went above and beyond. Not only did she get it scheduled she got it scheduled for the same day.

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.
  • Before buying or selling a property with a private well
  • If your water tastes, smells, or looks unusual
  • After recent flooding or septic system failure
  • When a child or vulnerable person is living on the property
  • As part of routine maintenance every 1–3 years
  • Following construction, drilling, or well repairs
  • When required by a lender, insurer, or county regulation

Why Water Source Inspections Matter

Unlike municipal systems, private water sources are not routinely tested or monitored by the state. If left unchecked, they can harbor:

  • Bacteria (E. coli, coliforms)
  • Heavy metals (lead, arsenic, manganese)
  • Nitrates or nitrites
  • Industrial or agricultural runoff
  • Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
  • Sediment or physical debris

A professional inspection gives you peace of mind and helps avoid waterborne illness, plumbing issues, and liability.


What We Inspect

EnvioCore’s water source inspection includes:

  • Location and surface conditions of wellhead/spring
  • Integrity of the cap, casing, and access point
  • Setback distances from septic tanks, animals, or runoff
  • Visual signs of flooding, erosion, or damage
  • Sanitary seal and venting systems
  • Connection to pressure tank and indoor plumbing
  • Sample collection for lab testing (upon request)

Health Risks of Contaminated Water

Unsafe water can lead to:

  • Gastrointestinal illness (diarrhea, vomiting, cramps)
  • Long-term developmental or neurological harm (lead, arsenic)
  • Reproductive health issues (nitrates in infants)
  • Skin or respiratory irritation (bacteria, VOCs)
  • Worsened symptoms in children, elderly, or immune-compromised individuals

Water should be tested and the source inspected regularly to catch issues early.

How EnvioCore Can Help

We provide complete, on-site water source inspections for homes, rural properties, ranches, cabins, and commercial buildings across Colorado. Our team delivers:

  • Certified water system inspectors

  • Water sampling for lab analysis (bacteria, lead, nitrate, etc.)
  • Fast, accurate reporting for buyers, sellers, or regulatory needs
  • Guidance on next steps for repairs, treatment, or follow-up testing

How Water Source Inspections Work

  1. Initial Review

We ask about the property’s history, plumbing, and water concerns.

  1. On-Site Inspection

We examine the source area, surroundings, seals, piping, and access.

  1. Optional Water Sampling

Collected using EPA protocols—can include coliform, nitrate, metals, etc.

  1. Documentation & Next Steps

You receive a report with findings, photos, and recommendations.

Preparing for Your Inspection

  • Know the location of the water source (well, cistern, spring)
  • Provide access to nearby plumbing systems and water tanks
  • Avoid recent water system work (flushing, treatment) before sampling
  • Share details on usage: drinking, irrigation, livestock, etc.

Final Reporting and Results

Your report will include:

  • Inspection findings with photos
  • Surface conditions and contamination risks
  • Water source type and system notes
  • Recommendations for treatment, repairs, or further testing
  • Optional lab results if water sampling was included

Water Source Inspection Q&A

Do I need a water source inspection if I’m buying a home with a well?

Yes. Most rural lenders require it, and it protects your health and investment.

How often should a private well be inspected or tested?

Annually for bacteria; every 3 years for a full inspection or if problems arise.

Can you test the water quality too?

Absolutely. We offer full lab testing as an add-on service.

Who pays for the inspection during a property sale?

That’s negotiable—but many buyers request it during due diligence.

What happens if a problem is found?

We’ll recommend next steps—such as repairs, chlorination, or filtration.
