Water Testing

Water Quality 

icons-water-lgGranite Inspection Group is dedicated to helping people get peace of mind about their drinking water by providing quality water testing information and analytical services. We take the time to consult with our clients to determine the proper testing protocol and recommendation to determine the actual quality of their water.

Major storms and other types of incidents can be highly disruptive for water systems. If you suspect that your water supply is unsafe to drink, or you are having serious nuisance problems such as rust and hard water you can have your water tested for specific contaminants of concern.

 Private Well Water

Do you have municipal or well water?  When was the last time you tested your well water.  Well water can change and should be tested periodically to ensure that the quality has not changed.  Most pollutants in water you cannot taste, smell or see.  The water appears to be clear and clean but, may be tainted with harmful pollutants or impurities that you may be sensitive to.  Most water chemistry is natural and sometimes manmade pollutants enter your supply which allows for sudden changes.  If your health has changed you should test your water again to ensure it is not contributing to your health issues.  Periodic testing is strongly recommended.

Town Mandated Water Test for East Fishkill, Fishkill and Wappingers Falls Town Ships?

If you have a private well at your residence and it is located within the East Fishkill,  Fishkill and Wappingers Falls townships,   it is required by the town and the town law to have a test performed prior to the buying and/or selling a property.  The person(s) responsible for the test may vary, so please confirm with the local municipalities for direction.  For your convenience  and for more information in reference to this matter, the official website for Dutchess County Government

For testing results by township or not sure if your location has been tested or when it was last tested please feel to to visit the appropriate Dutchess County Government by township website for additional information, click on the link below:

Ground Water & Drinking Water

Storm and Emergency Preparedness. Major storms and other types of incidents can be highly disruptive for water systems. Learn what water consumers can do to protect their water and what utility operators can do to protect their drinking water and waste water systems. Continue reading ground water & drinking water.

Drinking Water Contaminants

Basic Information about Drinking Water Contaminants. National Primary Drinking Water Regulations (NPDWRs or primary standards) are legally enforceable standards that apply to public water systems. Primary standards protect public health by limiting the levels of contaminants in drinking water. Continue reading drinking water contaminants.

 Drinking Water

Lead can enter drinking water through corrosion of plumbing materials, especially where the water has high acidity or low mineral content that corrodes pipes and fixtures. Homes built before 1986 are more likely to have lead pipes, fixtures and solder. However, new homes are also at risk: even legally “lead-free” plumbing may contain up to eight percent lead. Continue reading lead in drinking water.

Testimonials

Granite inspection group provided a fair, detailed, highly actionable report of findings, and risk areas. I highly recommend their team, easy to work with and communication was great.

Paula Blomquist   

Granite Inspection really came through for us! Due to some careless things our builder did, there were several obstacles and challenges to installing a radon mitigation system in our home. After two others had shown up and failed to help us, I was losing hope. Then I called Granite Inspection, and I wish I had called them first! Michael is knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. He got the job done, no problem. I highly recommend Granite Inspection.

Julie Gonzalez   

This company is awesome. Very Very professional. Totally happy with their performance. I will definitely use them again in the future if the need arises.

David McPartland   

I have been through several home inspections for prior purchases and after each I found out a lot of details were missed. Fast forward to my latest experience with Michael @ Granite Inspection. All I can say is WOW, never have I had a such a thorough, well informed, detailed inspection. Michael spoke and explained to me as someone who genuinely cared and literally gave me a brain dump in person and in his report about the house, all the good, bad and ugly, he held nothing back. He really wanted to ensure that I was in a position to make a well-informed decision. I don't usually write lengthy reviews, but Michael has saved me from a very costly mistake. Truly appreciated his objectivity and professionalism.

Marlyne Bennett   

Granite inspection was wonderful to work with. Michael installed a radon mitigation system in our 150 old house and he did a wonderful job. He was always clear, concise, and friendly. Would highly, highly recommend. Thank you so much!!

Kristin Luks   

Micheal was amazing and very informative! I appreciate his hard work especially by himself. Lisa was very helpful and so polite over the phone. Would definitely recommend for services.

Ashley F   

We had to have a Radon Mitigation system installed in our house. Started by looking at the NY State's website for Certified Radon Mitigation Contractors. Narrowed the search down to those who are Certified Radon Testers at Dutchess County (currently there are 4). We chose the Granite Inspection Group because of their qualifications listed on their business website.
Contacting them and scheduling for a Radon test was very easy.
Michael and his wife Lisa are very friendly, pleasant, and more importantly very responsive and professional. After the test and the evaluation, we received a written estimate regarding the cost of the installation of the Radon Mitigation system.
The installation and subsequent evaluation (re-testing) of the Radon Mitigation system was flawless. Granite Inspection Group did an excellent job. As a retired engineer I appreciate their professionalism.

GTM   

With basement radon levels between 19 and 21, I contacted Michael. He installed the radon mitigation system in one day. The result is astonishingly successful: the average is now around 0.35, well below 1, and our house is now virtually free of this carcinogenic gas. Michael is thoroughly professional, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. The results speak volumes.

Garry Hagberg   

I used granite inspection for my home inspection and the gentleman that was there doing the inspection was very knowledgeable and easy to work with. Gave a full break down of what was needed and what needed to be done. Very professional service from beginning to end .Will highly recommend to anyone

Michael Roman   

We used Granite Inspection when we purchased our current house and had them carry out an inspection for a property we recently had an offer accepted on. Michael provided a 108 page report. Thorough, professional and invaluable. Simply put, we would not have anyone else inspect a property.
