Construction Water Testing Services

Water is an indispensable ingredient in construction, from preparing mortar to mixing cement. However, contaminated or poor-quality water can weaken structures, shorten their lifespan, and increase repair costs. Construction water testing ensures that water used for building projects meets quality standards for safety and strength.

  • Suspended Matter – May create voids and weaken concrete
  • Acidity – Excess acidity can corrode materials and weaken concrete
