Keeping your building's water safe and its paperwork current
A backflow device guards the drinking supply, and its annual test is a legal duty for strata and business. Ring (02) 9072 0502 and an accredited plumber will test, certify and lodge it, so compliance is handled start to finish.
Why backflow matters across the towers
Shared supply, real risk. A high-rise runs one incoming main feeding many units, plant and common taps, so a backflow device is what stops dirty water being siphoned back into everyone's drinking supply if pressure ever drops. Annual testing is the law. A registered testable device must be certified each year, and a missed test puts a strata scheme or business out of compliance with the authority, so tracking the due date is part of the job. One building, several devices. Larger towers and mixed-use blocks near the retail precinct often carry more than one assembly across common property and commercial tenancies, so a coordinated test keeps the whole site compliant at once.
Backflow work we carry out for buildings
Backflow testing is a precise, accredited task with a certificate at the end, so a licensed and accredited plumber tests each device to standard, services what needs it and handles the compliance paperwork on your behalf:
Annual testing
Each registered device is tested to the required standard with calibrated gauges, its valves and relief checked under control, and the result recorded, so a passing assembly earns its certificate and a failing one is flagged for service straight away.
Device servicing
Where a device fails or is sluggish, its worn springs, seals and valves are serviced or renewed on site, then the assembly is retested, so a failed unit is returned to a fully passing condition without a drawn-out second visit.
New installations
Where a fit-out, upgrade or change of use calls for backflow protection, an assembly is sized to the hazard, installed and commissioned, then registered with the authority so its annual testing cycle begins on the correct schedule from day one.
Certification and records
Once a device passes, the test certificate is completed and lodged with the water utility, and a copy is provided for the building's records, so the strata committee or business has current proof of compliance whenever it is asked for.
Testing mapped across the precinct
The Guess Avenue strata blocks. Residential towers through here carry common-property devices on their incoming mains, so a scheduled annual test keeps the whole scheme compliant in a single attendance. The Village Square commercial tenancies. Cafes, shops and mixed-use premises by the retail precinct often need their own containment devices, so testing here spans both strata and business assemblies on the one site. The Discovery Point precinct. The larger master-planned buildings run multiple assemblies across plant rooms and tenancies, so coordinating the testing keeps every device certified and the paperwork tidy for the managing agent.
Common backflow issues we resolve
The overdue test notice
A reminder or notice that a device is due or overdue means the annual certification has lapsed, and booking the test promptly brings the assembly and the building back into compliance before the lapse becomes a bigger problem with the authority.
A device that fails testing
An assembly that fails under test has worn check valves or a tired relief, and servicing or replacing those worn parts then retesting returns it to a passing condition, so the certificate can issue rather than leaving the building exposed.
A fit-out with no protection
A new tenancy or upgraded plant that introduces a contamination risk without a backflow device is non-compliant from the start, and installing and registering the right assembly closes that gap and puts the testing cycle on a proper footing.
Why staying on top of backflow testing matters
Backflow compliance is quiet until it is not, so staying on schedule protects both the building's water and its standing:
It protects the drinking supply. A working, tested device is the barrier that keeps used water from siphoning back into the mains, and the annual check genuinely safeguards the health of everyone drawing water in the building. It keeps the scheme compliant. A lapsed or failed certificate leaves a scheme or a business out of step with the authority's requirements, so an on-time test avoids the notices, follow-ups and liability that a missed one invites. It avoids a scramble later. Tracking the due date and testing on schedule means the certificate is always ready when an agent, insurer or buyer asks, rather than triggering a last-minute rush to prove the building complies.

Strata buildings, commercial premises and any property with a registered backflow prevention device must have it tested every year by an accredited plumber to stay compliant with the water authority.
How often is testing required?
Registered testable assemblies must be checked and certified each year, and we track the due date and remind you so its yearly check is never missed and compliance stays current.

Yes, once the device passes we fill out the test certificate and submit it to Sydney Water on your behalf, keeping the building's compliance record is updated without you chasing paperwork.
