Water testing context for Duxbury
Most of Duxbury is served by municipal groundwater, while a number of homes, especially in outer and older pockets of town, still rely on private wells. Those two situations call for different questions, and a baseline test answers them either way. For town-supplied homes, testing at the tap shows what is reaching your kitchen after the water travels through service lines and household plumbing. For well owners, a baseline gives you a clear starting point you can revisit over the years. In both cases, knowing your numbers first means you never spend money solving a problem you do not have.
Local water notes
Parts of Duxbury, including the Gurnet Road area, receive water connected to Marshfield's system, which has been monitoring PFAS near new federal targets, while many Duxbury homes rely on private wells. Either way, a baseline test clarifies what is at your tap.

Water testing in Duxbury: FAQs
Are you a laboratory?

Should I test if I am on town water?
Many town-water homeowners simply want a clearer picture of what is coming out of their own tap, especially in older homes or when considering a filter. Your town tests the water system; we help you understand your water at the tap.
Are you going to try to sell me a filtration system?
No. Testing comes first. If your results do not show a need for treatment, we will say so. If the results suggest treatment may help, we explain the options and can refer you to qualified local partners — there is no pressure to buy anything.
Do you guarantee my water is safe?
No. Test results only reflect the contaminants tested at the time the sample was collected. We help interpret results and suggest next steps, but we do not make blanket safety guarantees.
