Annual backflow testing that keeps your property compliant and the water safe
Miss the annual test and you risk a compliance notice. Call (02) 9072 0502 to arrange testing, a compliance job that sits alongside our wider plumbing work.
Who needs testing around here
Irrigation and grounds
Businesses and buildings
Backflow services we provide
Backflow work is part testing, part record-keeping and part repair, and as registered testers we cover the whole obligation so your device stays compliant and your supply stays properly protected right through the year:
Annual device testing
Every testable backflow device must be tested each year by a licensed tester, so we check the valve under gauge, confirm it holds against reverse flow, and lodge the result to keep your annual compliance record current and fully complete.
Repairs and replacement
When a device fails its test, it cannot be left, so we service or replace the valve on the spot where we can, then retest and lodge the pass, so the property is back in compliance without a second visit.
New device installation
Where a property needs backflow protection it does not yet have, we assess the hazard level, install the correct containment or zone device to standard, then commission and register it, so you begin fully compliant from the very first day.
Why the yearly test is not optional
Sydney Water sets the rule
Renovations can trigger a device
Backflow issues we resolve
A device that fails its test
When a backflow valve fails under gauge, it is no longer protecting the supply, so we diagnose the fault, service or replace the internals, and retest until it passes and the compliance record can be lodged clean.
A missed or overdue test
If a yearly test has slipped past its due date, the property is technically non-compliant, so we test it promptly, sort any fault and, through regular maintenance plumbing, make sure next year's test is never forgotten.
Why backflow testing matters
Backflow protection is one of those things nobody thinks about until it fails or a notice arrives, yet it is what keeps contaminated water out of the drinking supply for your property and everyone connected downstream:
- Health protection comes first A failed device can let contaminated water siphon back into the mains. Annual testing is what proves it is still doing its job.
- Compliance avoids penalties Water authorities require the yearly test and record. Staying on top of it keeps you clear of notices, fines and awkward audits.
- One call keeps it simple We test, repair, register and remind, so backflow compliance becomes a booked annual visit, the same steady rhythm we bring to water filter servicing.
How it works
Our backflow testing process, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0502 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
We test and lodge it
At the visit, your registered tester gauges the device against reverse flow, records the readings, repairs or replaces anything that fails, retests to a clear pass, then lodges the certificate so your compliance is filed and current.
- 04
Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Eastlakes
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Eastlakes works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Where we work
Backflow testing we cover nearby
Registered device testing runs across Mascot, Pagewood, Rosebery, Kingsford and Daceyville as well, where businesses, strata blocks and irrigated grounds all rely on an annual check, a lodged certificate and a fixed written price agreed before the gauge comes out.
Good questions, straight answers
Backflow testing questions Eastlakes locals ask
How often does a backflow device need testing?
Every registered testable device must be tested once a year by an accredited tester, and we lodge the result for you so the property stays compliant without you chasing paperwork.
Does my Gardeners Road business need backflow testing?
Very likely, because businesses on Gardeners Road usually run a containment device that needs an annual test, and we can confirm your obligation and handle the whole test for you.
What happens if my device fails the test?
We find what has failed inside, repair or swap the device on the same visit where possible, then retest to confirm it passes and lodge the result, so you are back in compliance quickly.
Do irrigated grounds like golf courses need testing?
Yes, irrigation systems such as those around Eastlake Golf Club run testable devices that stop fertiliser and pond water reaching the mains, so they need the same annual compliance check.
Is there a call out fee for a backflow test?
No, getting a registered tester to your property costs $0, and you pay only the fixed written price for the test, confirmed in writing before any work at all begins.
Is your backflow work guaranteed?
Yes, any repair or device replacement we carry out carries our Lifetime Labour Warranty, so if that workmanship ever falls short, we correct it again at no charge to you.
