Michael Hughes of Sydney Backflow Prevention Services was easily contacted by phone to arrange the backflow testing of our Sydney Water mains water isolation valve, and the price that he gave for the testing service was very reasonable, compared to another plumber that I contacted, regarding the undertaking of the same service. Michael also rang on the day of his arrival and gave advanced warning of the mains water being turned off, before he undertook the testing procedure. The entire procedure was easily completed by text messages and the forwarding of a photo of the Sydney Water test requirement correspondence. I would highly recommend "Sydney Backflow Prevention Services" for any water valve and backflow testing requirements. With best regards, Peter Oitzinger (Beecroft NSW 2119).

Sydney Backflow Prevention Service's competitive pricing prompted me to try them. The experience proved excellent: clear communication, punctual arrival, thorough testing, and careful cleanup. Michael performed the work competently and professionally.
My previous provider had become complacent, briefly attaching tools, taking photos, and finishing in minutes for $350 (even with a $50 discount) on a single small device.
If you have encountered similar experiences, I recommend Sydney Backflow Prevention Services. I anticipated average results and received five-star service instead.

Yearly follow-up.
Michael remains highly reliable. He contacts clients proactively to schedule testing and confirms whether you wish to continue. He arranges a convenient time and delivers consistently strong work. The attention to clean-up continues to impress me; these details reinforce confidence in the service.
First time wasn't a fluke. I highly recommend him.

Got my Water Backflow Testing done by Michael and couldn’t be happier with the service! Michael was super easy to reach and worked so efficiently. It was my first time dealing with him, and honestly, all I had to do was make one phone call, have a quick 2-minute chat with him in person, and he handled everything else from there. So easy and stress-free. Highly recommend Michael!

Michael carried out our annual backflow prevention testing at our home. When I contacted him and explained the urgency due to having passed the due date, he was very understanding and promptly arranged to come the very next day by adjusting his schedule. He is honest, reliable, and a true professional. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for excellent service.

I highly recommend Michael for backflow prevention testing. From the start, communication was a breeze—everything handled efficiently and professionally via text. His price was significantly better than the other quotes I received. He arrived on time, completed the inspection quickly, and submitted the results to Sydney Water right away. Truly seamless service!
