Our Story

Backflow Prevention of New York started with one goal: mastering backflow prevention in New York City. These devices, including RPZ backflow preventers and DCDA backflow preventer valves, protect the city’s water supply by preventing contaminated water from flowing back into the main system during emergencies. Property managers needed a reliable partner who knew the technical requirements and understood the regulations.

Our reputation spread through satisfied customers. Clients began requesting additional services. Property managers appreciated contractors who showed up on time, explained problems clearly, and completed work correctly the first time. We built trust by refusing to sell unnecessary services or take shortcuts that could compromise building safety or compliance.

We’re now a full-service plumbing and heating company that still leads NYC in backflow prevention. Our team includes factory-trained technicians, drain cleaning specialists, and certified gas professionals. Property management companies use us as their single vendor for everything from emergency repairs to planned maintenance across entire building portfolios throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island.
