Common Backflow Problems We Fix
Backflow issues can cause health risks, water contamination, and legal problems if not handled properly. Here are the most common backflow situations we deal with in Sydney:
Contaminated Water Supply
When backflow occurs, dirty water mixes with clean water. This can carry bacteria, chemicals, or other pollutants back into your taps, posing serious health risks to anyone using it. We install and maintain backflow prevention devices that protect your drinking water and keep it safe.
Failed Backflow Testing
Sydney Water requires annual testing and certification of all registered backflow devices. If your system fails the test, you are considered non-compliant. We repair or replace the device, then complete the retesting and paperwork so your property stays compliant.
Faulty or Damaged Devices
Over time, backflow devices can rust, corrode, or break down. A faulty valve or seal may stop the device from working and leave your water supply exposed. We replace parts with approved, high-quality components to restore safety and extend the life of your device.
Unapproved Installations
Backflow prevention must be installed by a licensed and accredited plumber. Unapproved or poorly installed devices can fail compliance checks and put your property at risk. Our team installs and certifies all devices to Australian standards for long-term reliability.
Commercial And Industrial Risks
Certain sites such as cafés, restaurants, factories, workshops, and strata complexes face higher contamination risks. We assess your property, identify the right level of protection, and install the correct backflow device to meet Sydney Water and council regulations.
Missed Certification Deadlines
If your annual certification is overdue, you could face fines and enforcement notices. We provide timely testing, certification, and reporting directly to Sydney Water, keeping your property safe and your records up to date.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Do you offer emergency backflow services?
Yes. If your device fails suddenly or Sydney Water issues a notice, our licensed plumbers can attend urgently. We’re available 24/7 across Sydney to keep your water supply safe and compliant.
How often does my backflow device need testing?
Sydney Water requires annual testing and certification for all registered backflow devices. Skipping or delaying testing can lead to fines and non-compliance notices. We remind you each year so you never miss a deadline.
What happens if my backflow device fails the test?
If your device fails, we’ll explain the reason and provide a clear solution. This might involve servicing, repairing, or replacing parts. Once fixed, we retest and handle all compliance paperwork on your behalf.
Are your plumbers licensed and accredited for backflow?

What causes backflow to occur?
Backflow happens when water pressure changes and dirty water flows back into the clean supply. Common causes include garden hoses, irrigation systems, rainwater tanks, and faulty valves. Without prevention, this contaminated water can reach your taps.

We do both. If your device is still in good condition, we can service or repair it. If it’s too damaged or old, we’ll recommend a compliant replacement that suits your property.

Do you offer payment options?
Yes. We provide flexible, interest-free payment plans so you can get urgent backflow work completed now and pay it off over time with confidence.
Can you remind me when my next test is due?
Yes. By joining our VIP Membership, you’ll receive annual reminders for Sydney Water testing deadlines, ensuring your property stays compliant every year without the stress of remembering.
What should I do if I receive a non-compliance notice?
Contact us immediately. We’ll attend quickly, inspect and repair the device, retest it, and submit the certification to Sydney Water so your property is brought back into compliance fast.
