What to do in your house

Test your own tap with a certified lab first-draw sample; Dickinson, TX may offer free or low-cost kits through the utility. If your own line is lead, replacing the private side runs about $1,200-$12,300 (EPA average about $4,700). Ask Windsong Park whether it covers that cost before hiring anyone - many utilities now do. Its latest copper 90th percentile is 2350 ppb (copper action level 1,300 ppb).

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. The lead result guide covers how utilities pick the homes they sample. The action level is dropping - the 10 ppb rule from 2027.
