Yes the QE11 is the place. You can get your well water tested for everything including arsenic, E.Coli, phosphates etc. It’s a good idea to do that when you are buying a house on a well, as the results can be a deal breaker. If a house doesn’t have a good water supply it really affects value and ability to get a mortgage...as well as the beer
I like your priorities. It sounds like you are buying a brew shed with a dedicated house that comes with it.

5th floor of the DJ MacKenzie building at the QEII. I believe they call themselves the environmental lab.
I work one floor above.

Keep in mind there is a very short time frame to get the sample tested from the time you take it for coliform /e. Coli
