Chemical analysis
Water or material sample testing against specific chemical parameters.
When to use it
Chemical analysis is used to test water or material samples for specific parameters, for example following water damage, where water quality is a concern, or as part of a wider investigation into a building’s condition.
How sampling works
A water or material sample is taken from site and tested against the parameters relevant to your enquiry, either on site or in our laboratory.
What’s in the report
Results are reported against each tested parameter, giving a quantified read on what’s present rather than a general description, useful for backing up a wider survey finding, or as evidence in its own right. See our salts analysis for a related test covering mineral content in building materials.
Other tests in our laboratory
Electrical decontamination analysis
Testing to determine the concentration of soluble chloride salts on cleaned electrical items.
ExploreInsect identification
On-site micro-vacuum sampling and stereo microscopy to identify what insects are present.
ExploreSalts analysis
Testing for a wide range of minerals, used to help identify the source of moisture ingress.
