What do you think is wrong with the mains water ?
There are legal limits they have to work to.

Is it a matter for local Environmental health officer ?

We get our borehole water tested by Northumbrian Water lab. about ÂŁ100 for full test

Get a sample analysed.

give you grounds to complain to Water Co / EHO

We use this lot, plenty other labs do it

Maybe best not label the samples "mains" ;)
