Backflow Testing & Certification in Ohio & Kentucky
Certified annual testing, filed with your water provider for you.
Free estimates. We diagnose the issue and give you a clear, flat-rate quote to approve before any work begins - no surprises on the invoice.
Why backflow testing is required
A backflow preventer stops irrigation water — and anything in your lines, like fertilizer or standing water — from being siphoned back into the public drinking supply. Because it protects everyone on the water main, both Ohio and Kentucky require annual testing of irrigation backflow devices, and your water purveyor tracks whether yours is current.
We handle the whole thing
- Certified testers approved to test in both Ohio and Northern Kentucky.
- Certification filed for you — no separate paperwork or filing fees on your end.
- Filed for you with GCWW (OH) or NKWD (KY) so you stay compliant.
- Repairs if it fails — if your device doesn't pass, we'll quote the repair or rebuild flat, on the spot.
- Annual reminders — we'll text you when next year's test is due so you never get a compliance notice.
Have several devices, or a commercial property with a testing schedule to manage? See commercial backflow compliance for multi-device testing and compliance calendars.

Frequently asked questions
How often do I need a backflow test?
Every year. Both Ohio and Kentucky require annual testing of irrigation backflow preventers, and your water purveyor tracks your compliance. We'll send a reminder when yours is coming due.
Do you file the results with the water company?
Yes — we submit your certification directly to Greater Cincinnati Water Works or the Northern Kentucky Water District, depending on where you are. You don't have to mail anything.
What if my backflow device fails the test?
We'll explain exactly what failed and quote a flat price to repair or rebuild it. Many issues are minor and can be handled the same visit so you stay compliant.
How much is backflow testing?
Testing is billed per device and most homes have just one — we give you the price up front. Properties with multiple devices are quoted per device, and we can set up a compliance calendar for commercial sites.
I got a notice from the water district — can you help fast?
Yes. Contact us or call or text us, mention the notice, and we'll schedule your test and file the certification before your deadline.
