A team based in L'Ange-Gardien
L'Ange-Gardien spans both banks of the Lièvre River, north of the Buckingham and Masson-Angers sectors of Gatineau. We are based right here: in-home water testing, installation and maintenance are handled by the same local team, on both sides of the river.
Well water in L'Ange-Gardien
Well owners are responsible for their water quality. Quebec recommends bacteria testing in spring and fall at an accredited lab. Two neighbouring wells can produce very different water: only a test at your address tells you which treatment fits.
| What you notice | What we test | Possible solution |
|---|---|---|
| White scale, crusty kettle | Hardness | Water softener |
| Orange or black stains | Iron and manganese | Iron and manganese filter |
| Rotten egg smell | Hydrogen sulfide | Sulfur odour treatment |
| Cloudy water, sand in aerators | Sediment | Sediment filter |
| No signs, but a well to protect | Bacteria | UV system |
Installation, maintenance and salt delivery
Before installing anything, we check the well's flow rate, the space near the water entry and the drain for backwashing. After installation, the same team handles water softener maintenance and your maintenance plan; salt delivery is provided by our partner DistribusSel. If an existing system no longer works well, see our repair and troubleshooting.

Preparing your project
Gather your dated test reports, the model references of any equipment already installed, and what you notice: hot or cold water, one tap or the whole house.
Questions about water in L'Ange-Gardien
Where is EUREk located?
At 42 avenue de l'Ange-Gardien, in L'Ange-Gardien. For water testing, a specialist comes to your home.
Do you serve both banks of the Lièvre River?
Yes. We work throughout L'Ange-Gardien, as well as in Buckingham, Masson-Angers, Val-des-Monts, Cantley, Thurso and Lochaber.
Is the in-home water test really free?
Yes. An EUREk specialist tests your water at home and gives you a written recommendation and quote at no cost. Bacteria testing is done separately by an accredited lab.
How often should I test my well?
Quebec recommends bacteria testing in spring and fall. Clear water is not necessarily safe: bacteria are invisible.
Can you deliver my water softener salt?
Yes, through our partner DistribusSel, which delivers in the Outaouais. Enter your postal code in the delivery request: availability, price and date are confirmed with them.
