Your move
Look up your address in St Andrews Single Family Homes's service line inventory. If it says lead, galvanized or unknown, test your tap.

Why sampled homes are the worst-case ones is in the guide to reading the number. A zero today does not rule out a jump later - the rules are tightening in 2027.
