Once your water is treated and makes its way to your house, you might not think about whether or not it’s clean. After all, it’s tested already, right? But sometimes even treated water can have high enough levels of chlorine and minerals to cause problems with your plumbing or your health. At Morris-Jenkins we think that providing free basic water quality testing in Indian Trail is important for helping families learn what’s in their water.
Does your water smell like chlorine, metal, or rotten eggs? These odors might mean there are chemical issues, bacteria, or too many minerals.
If your water looks cloudy, amber, or brown, it might have sediment, iron, or rust from old pipes.
Seen a white film on your faucets or dishes? Hard water leaves minerals that can shorten the life of your appliances.
Too many minerals in your water can make your skin dry, hair brittle, and even cause itching or irritation after a shower.
High mineral levels can also lead to plumbing issues and pipe corrosion.

Don’t you just love the smell of pool water? It probably reminds you of lazy summer days or trips to the water park. We don’t wanna burst your bubble, but the smell you’re thinking of is the odor of chlorine mixed with contaminants. If you’re smelling a faint pool smell in your tap water, it might mean the chlorine levels are too high.
High chlorine levels can cause things like red skin, itchy eyes, dry hair, and stains on your fixtures. Plus, it can end up in the steam from your shower and cause lung problems. We’ll test for chlorine to see how much is hanging out in your water.
Lots of people drink mineral water on purpose. But if you have it flowing through your taps, you’re gonna end up with mineral build-up in your pipes, yellowish stains on your clothes, and spots on your dishes. You might also not like the way your water tastes. We’ll test for the most common minerals which are magnesium, iron, and calcium.
If your water tastes sour, it’s possible that the pH of your water is off. What’s pH? It’s a number that tells you how acidic or basic your water is. It can go either way. Water with a low pH is too acidic and might corrode your pipes a little faster. When it has a high pH, you’ll have problems with scaly build-up, low water pressure, and bitter-tasting water. We can make sure your water is a little more neutral.
It's normal to worry about contaminants sneaking into your water. We've all been there, wanting only the purest water for our families. But take a moment, breathe, and remember that not every contaminant is harmful. Some, like minerals or chlorine, might change the taste or texture of your water, but they're not dangerous in small amounts.
The key is knowing what's in your water. Routine water testing helps identify any potential problems, so you don't have to guess or worry. If we find something concerning, Morris-Jenkins is ready to help. We'll walk you through the results and suggest solutions to make sure your water is as clean and safe as possible for your family.
After you’ve had your water tested, we’ll give you a report that details all the information you wanted to know about your water. The results can be a little confusing, so we’ll make sure to explain them to you clearly. If you find out that your water has a high or low pH, or it has too much chlorine or lots of minerals, we’ll help you figure out a plan.
For chlorine, the plan is usually to put in a filter that gets all of the chlorine out before it even reaches your taps. Even if you don’t drink tap water, it can end up in your shower (which means you’re breathing it in steam and absorbing it into your skin). A water softener will take care of too many minerals and get rid of the problem of water stains. We can also help you set up systems to treat low or high pH and get it back to neutral.
