Keeping the drinking supply clean where a device could draw it back
Any property with irrigation, a boosted system or commercial equipment needs a tested backflow device by law. Call (02) 9072 0592 and we test, tag and file the certificate so the deadline never slips.

Our backflow testing services
Backflow prevention is a compliance job as much as plumbing, keeping a device working and its certificate current, and across the shops, blocks and grounds we cover the full cycle:
Annual testing
Each registered device is due for a test every year, so we check the valve against gauge, confirm it holds against reverse flow, and lodge the result with the water authority, keeping the property compliant without you tracking the date.
Device installation
Where a property has irrigation, a boost pump or commercial gear but no protection, we assess the hazard rating and install the correct backflow device at the boundary, sized and positioned so its yearly test is straightforward for years ahead.
Repairs and rebuilds
Should a device fail its test, a replacement is not always needed, so we strip and rebuild the valve with a service kit where the body is sound, retest it to pass, and get the certificate back on track quickly.
Certification and records
Once a device passes, we tag it, complete the compliance paperwork and lodge it with the authority on your behalf, handing a strata manager or business owner a clean record they can produce at any audit without a last-minute scramble.

Common backflow compliance issues
A lapsed certificate
A backflow certificate that has quietly expired is the most common issue we see, usually caught at a lease renewal or audit, and a prompt test and lodgement restores compliance.
A device that fails testing
When a valve fails its annual test it usually means worn internals, not a dead device, and a service kit and rebuild will often return it to passing without a full replacement.
No protection fitted at all
A property that added irrigation or a booster but never fitted backflow protection is a real contamination risk, and installing the right device at the boundary closes that gap and satisfies compliance.
Why backflow testing is not optional
Backflow prevention protects the drinking water everyone downstream shares, and the annual test is both a legal duty and a real safeguard, so a current certificate is worth keeping on top of:
It is a legal requirement
It protects real health
Records save you later
How it works
How backflow testing works step by step
- 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
Test, tag and lodge
With the device located, we run the gauge test to confirm the valve seals against back-pressure, service or rebuild it if it fails, then tag it and lodge the passing certificate with the water authority.

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 Hillsdale
The accountability behind your compliance certificate is the standard we hold on all our work.
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 Hillsdale 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
Areas we service
We test and certify backflow devices across Eastgardens, Matraville, Banksmeadow, Pagewood and Maroubra too, so a strata block in Maroubra or a shopfront in Eastgardens gets the same on-time testing as here.
Good questions, straight answers
Backflow testing questions from Hillsdale locals
Who needs a backflow prevention device?
Properties with irrigation, a booster pump, commercial equipment or certain shared water lines need a registered testable device, which covers most strata blocks, shopfronts and sports grounds around the suburb.
How often does a backflow device need testing?
A registered device must be tested once a year and the outcome filed with the authority, and we track the due date for you so the certificate never quietly lapses.
What happens if my device fails the test?
A failed device can often be rebuilt with a service kit rather than replaced, so we repair the valve on the spot when the body is good, retest it, and lodge the pass.
Do you handle the paperwork and lodgement?
Yes, we tag the device, complete the compliance form and file the certificate for you, leaving a strata manager or building owner a clean record ready for any audit.
How much does backflow testing cost?
Testing is quoted as one fixed written price once your plumber sees the device, and with a $0 call out fee, that figure covers the test, any rebuild and the lodgement.
Is your backflow work certified?
Yes, our testing is carried out by a licensed, accredited plumber and every result is properly lodged, and the workmanship on any rebuild or install carries our Lifetime Labour Warranty.
