Lead. You can’t see it, smell it, or taste it in your water, but even low levels of lead exposure can have serious and lasting health consequences, particularly for young children and pregnant women.

At Alexin Labs, we understand your concerns. That’s why we offer comprehensive and reliable lead testing services to give you peace of mind about the water you drink every day. We’re your local experts in Tigard, Oregon, dedicated to ensuring the safety of your water supply.

Is Your Water at Risk?

While public water systems work hard to deliver safe drinking water, lead can leach into your tap water from aging plumbing, lead service lines, and even household fixtures. Homes built before 1986 are particularly susceptible, but even newer homes can have components containing lead.

Consider lead testing if:

  • Your home was built before 1990

    This is the most significant risk factor.
  • You have older plumbing fixtures

    Faucets and fittings made before 2014, or imported from other countries, may contain higher levels of lead.
  • You notice discolored water or metallic taste

    While not always indicative of lead, these could be signs of plumbing issues.
  • You are pregnant or have young children

    They are most vulnerable to the harmful effects of lead.
  • You're concerned about the safety of your water, regardless of your home's age.
