Backflow Prevention in Fort Lauderdale

Ensure your clean water stays clean. We test, install, and repair backflow preventers to keep your property compliant and safe.

For decades, Priscilla's Plumbing has provided top-tier plumbing services to homeowners and businesses throughout Fort Lauderdale. We blend old-school craftsmanship with modern plumbing technology.

For Fort Lauderdale specifically, the most common driver of backflow prevention calls is: cast iron drain failure is endemic in homes built before 1985, and slab leaks are common in the slab-on-grade construction east of us-1. Our crews have worked these exact patterns for decades — we know what to look for and what the durable fix is.

Broward County requires annual backflow testing on any Fort Lauderdale property with an irrigation system, a fire line, or a commercial connection, and a missed test is the fastest way to a violation notice. Housing stock here is pre-1985 cast iron throughout the historic neighborhoods; mid-century waterfront homes on the isles with salt-air corrosion challenges, which directly shapes how we scope this work. The local pattern we see most often is cast iron drain failure is endemic in homes built before 1985, and slab leaks are common in the slab-on-grade construction east of us-1, so that is where we look first when we open up a wall or pull a cleanout cap.

We test, repair, rebuild, and re-certify on the same visit when possible, and we file the paperwork with the utility for you so the certification actually closes out. We're regularly on the trucks in Las Olas Isles and the surrounding Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods, so we already know the building stock, the soil, and the municipal connections.

Warning Signs Fort Lauderdale Homeowners Should Watch For

  • Notice from the city requiring annual testing
  • Discolored water or unusual taste
  • Visible leaks around the backflow assembly
  • Inconsistent water pressure
  • Installation of a new irrigation system or pool
