Your move

Test your own tap with a certified lab first-draw sample; Lewisburg, WV may offer free or low-cost kits through the utility.

Ask Davis Stuart Inc whether it covers that cost before hiring anyone - many utilities now do.

These figures describe homes the utility sampled, not your tap. Only your service line record or a test of your own water answers the question for your house. What a 90th-percentile result does and does not tell you: how to read a lead result. Size matters more than most people expect: small vs large water systems.
