In-Home Drinking Water Testing for the DFW Metroplex

Many homes in our area have hidden issues with water quality. Residents are concerned about lead, bacteria, and "forever chemicals" known as PFAS- and rightfully so. 36% of residential water lines remain untested for lead by the city, and PFAS contamination is on the rise.

Testing your water is a great way to ensure your family is safe. Mother provides fast and accurate in-home tests to identify these risks immediately.

Identifying Local Risks: Untested DFW Neighborhoods

As of late 2025, over 500,000 private service lines in the DFW Metroplex are unchecked for lead pipes. Data shows that 36 percent of public water pipes in Dallas are also untested for lead. We pay close attention to areas where older pipes are common.

These 10 DFW neighborhoods remain unchecked for lead by the city:

• Briarwood
• Highland Meadows
• Lake Highlands Estates
• Lake Park Estates
• Linda Heights
• Little Forest Hills
• Lower Greeneville
• North Stonewall Terrace
• Old Lake Highlands
• Ridgewood Park

Water Testing Tools That Set Mother Apart

We use specialized tools to get fast and reliable results.

• Lead Testing Strips: These strips give us a quick and accurate look at lead levels in your water.
• Chlorine Testing Kits: We check chlorine levels to ensure your water is properly treated.
• Visual Pipe Checks: Our team looks for dull grey pipes that scratch easily. These are often made of lead.
• Galvanized Pipe Scans: We find pipes that are rusting from the inside. These old metal pipes can trap lead particles and release them into your drinking water.

Certified Safety and Trust

Every water test we perform is done by a licensed professional. We maintain current best practices for identifying lead, PFAS, chemicals and biological contaminants in your incoming water supply. Our team ensures your plumbing meets every safety standard. 

If we find any contaminants in your water, we provide the data you need to make smart decisions for your home. Trust Mother to give you a clear picture of your water health without any sales fluff.

Common Questions About DFW Water Testing

• How can I tell if I have lead pipes? You can check the pipe where it enters your home. Lead pipes are usually dull grey and very soft. If you scratch them with a key, they will turn shiny like a new coin. If you are not sure, a professional test is the safest way to know for certain.
• Why are pharmaceuticals in the water? Small amounts of medicine can sometimes enter the water supply through waste. Standard city filters do not always catch these chemicals. A whole-home filter or an RO system is the best way to remove these items and keep your water pure.
• Is a one-time test enough? A one-time test is a great start. However, water quality can change over time. We recommend a test if you notice a change in taste or if there is major construction near your home. Construction can shake loose old lead particles from city pipes.
