NTL can meet the testing needs of home inspectors for informational or
regulatory purposes. Typically a buyer, mortgage company or local
health department will request or require a water test for the home
sale transaction. Each of these entities may have different ideas in
terms of what the water test should include. Buyers are commonly
looking for a more comprehensive test to ensure they are purchasing a
home with safe water. We offer two comprehensive test packages for
buyers looking for a complete water analysis
Watercheck and
Watercheck with Pesticide Option. Both
tests are reported in a clear and concise format. Turnaround time on
these two test packages may take 10-15 business days to complete once
they are received at the laboratory. In order to meet the time
constraints presented in home transactions, NTL has also developed a
series of seven products with a 2-3 day turnaround time. The
Quick Seven Series include all the
potability items typically requested for a home transaction.
Preliminary results are faxed within two business days of receipt at
the laboratory and a hard copy will follow in the mail.
In addition to water testing services, we can also provide testing for
lead and asbestos in various solid materials such as paint chips,
floor and ceiling tiles, soil and other materials. For more
information about these services see our products page.
When health departments require testing, they usually have a specific
list of parameters that should be included in the analysis. When
results are to go to the health department, we recommend a compliance
test. Compliance testing is quoted on a case by case basis due to
differing requirements. If compliance testing is required, please
provide a list of the contaminants required and the state in which the
work is to be completed. We will review the necessary certification
and issue an official quote within two business days which will
include pricing, turn-around-time and any other information pertinent
to performing the analysis.
Quality Service
With quality testing packages and analysis comes excellent customer
service. Customer service is a high priority for all of our network
laboratories. Our technical representatives hold degrees in Biology,
Environmental Geology and General Sciences. They are trained and
skilled to assist clients with analytical requirements. The technical
service representatives review current regulations and stay in contact
with regulators in order to offer informed recommendations to
customers concerning their testing needs
After consulting with one of our representatives, customers are
shipped test kits that come with simple instructions to make sample
collection and shipment back to our laboratories as easy as possible.
Once the sample reaches our laboratory, the highly skilled and trained
laboratory technicians are responsible for the processing and analysis
of the sample. The laboratory staff and technical representatives are
in constant communication so customers are notified immediately of
problems or concerns as samples are processed.
Once the results have been sent to the client, please be assured our
service does not stop there. Representatives are always available to
answer questions regarding the issued results or to assist in
additional testing that may need to be performed. NTL is recognized
worldwide for our commitment to quality and customer service
