The yearly test that keeps your drinking water supply protected and legal
If your property runs irrigation, a fire service or certain commercial fittings, an annual backflow test is a condition of supply, and (02) 9072 0592 books a licensed tester before the certificate falls due.

The backflow work we handle
We handle the full annual cycle on a backflow device, from the test itself to the servicing and the certificate filed with the authority, and set out the price before we start so compliance never brings a surprise:
Annual device testing
Using calibrated test gear, we check that the backflow device closes and holds exactly as it should, confirming the drinking supply cannot be drawn back into the mains by irrigation or process water, and record every reading for the certificate.
Backflow device servicing
When a test shows worn springs, seals or check valves inside the device, we service or rebuild it with the correct parts rather than condemning the whole unit, so it passes and keeps protecting the drinking supply for another year.
Certification and lodgement
Once the device passes, we fill out the compliance record and file the certificate with Sydney Water for you, so your annual obligation is met and the paperwork is properly handled without you ever chasing a form or a deadline.
New device installation
Where a property needs a device fitted for the first time, or an old one replaced, we size and install the right prevention unit at the connection, so a new irrigation or fire service starts out compliant from day one.
Staying compliant year after year without the hassle

Common backflow problems we get called to
A device that fails the test
A backflow device that fails to hold usually has perished seals or a stuck check valve inside, and a service with the right internals almost always brings it back to a pass without a full replacement.
No device where one is needed
A property that has added a pool top-up, a garden irrigation line or a fire service without a prevention device is carrying an unmet obligation, and fitting the correct device brings the connection into line before anyone comes asking.
Why backflow testing matters
Backflow prevention is one of those quiet obligations that only becomes loud when it is missed, so keeping the device tested and the certificate current protects your water, your property and your standing with the authority:
- Contamination is the real risk A failed device can let irrigation, chemical or process water siphon back into the drinking supply, which is the exact hazard the annual test exists to rule out.
- Non-compliance has teeth A lapsed certificate can breach the conditions of your water supply, exposing a business to notices and, at worst, disconnection until the device passes.
- A pass is quick and simple to keep Staying on top of the yearly test costs far less than a rebuild after neglect, so a device kept in service quietly does its job.
How it works
Our backflow testing process
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0592 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
Tested and lodged
On the day, your plumber runs the calibrated test, services any worn internals on the spot, records the readings, then completes and files the compliance certificate with the authority, so the property is signed off and current before the visit ends.
- 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 Riverwood
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 Riverwood 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.
Keeping shops, strata blocks and sportsgrounds compliant year on year is regular work here, done in one clean visit.
Where we work
Areas we service
Backflow testing and certification extend across Peakhurst, Narwee, Padstow, Beverly Hills and Lugarno, covering shops, irrigated grounds and homes with devices alike, so a licensed tester with the right gear is only ever a short drive from your connection.
Good questions, straight answers
Backflow testing questions Riverwood locals ask
Which properties actually need a backflow device tested?
If your connection has irrigation, a fire service, a rainwater changeover, a bore or certain commercial fittings, it likely carries a testable device the water authority wants checked each year.
How frequently must a backflow device be tested?
Testable backflow devices must be tested once a year and the certificate lodged with the water authority, so the obligation comes around annually for as long as the device stays in service.
Do the shops around the plaza really need annual testing?
Yes, many commercial connections near the shopping strip run testable devices, and each needs its yearly test and lodged certificate to keep the business on the right side of the supply rules.
Can you test the devices on an irrigated sportsground?
We can, as irrigated grounds like those on the local reserves keep boundary prevention devices, and we test, service and certify them so the watering system stays compliant through the season.
Do I see the cost before the backflow test?
Yes, the plumber gives you one fixed written quote covering the test, any servicing and the lodgement up front, and the $0 call out fee covers the attendance itself.
Is your work on the device guaranteed?
Yes, whatever servicing or installation we carry out on a device holds our Lifetime Labour Warranty, so a fault in our own work is remedied at no charge to you.
