What Is Backflow?

Backflow is the undesirable reversal of the flow of water and wastewater. This occurs when the pressure in your city’s main water line suddenly changes. Common issues associated with backflow include:

  • Bad water quality: Raw sewage can breach your waterline and contaminate your supply. This can lead to the spread of bacteria, viruses, and other disease-causing microorganisms.
  • Increased water bills: Backflow can cause your water meter to malfunction, resulting in higher-than-normal readings.
  • Pooling water: When left untreated, backflow may lead to flooding and water damage.
  • Plumbing damage: In rare cases, corrosive materials can enter your plumbing and cause extensive damage.

Backflow prevention can help you avoid these problems, so don’t hesitate to contact us today.

“Joey to the rescue. Last Sunday, I had a pipe break in my bathroom. I went down to turn off the water to the house, and that valve was frozen. After finally getting the water turned off at the street, I called Genes and they sent Joey out to help. What a great guy. He was here for almost 5 hrs. and replaced my main shut off and fixed the pipe in my bathroom. I thought the bill was reasonable for a Sunday emergency call. Joey was the bright spot of the day. Thank you again, sir!”

“I inadvertently hit submit before I was finished. This was about Joey the plumber. I did have him install the Halo Ion device. Really good experience with Joey. Thank you!”

“Joey Hrovat was so experienced and professional. His information was without bias and helped me to make good functional and financial decisions, that not only corrected a 30 year problem, but also improved the appearance as well as the resale value of my home. I give him my highest recommendation.”

“We have used Gene’s for years for our ac/heating needs but this was the first time we called for plumbing service (BTW Danita answered the phone and she was a delight). Our bathtub drain was barely draining and despite pouring all kinds of drain cleaners down it, we needed help. Gene’s scheduled us for the next day and Joey H came to help us. Like all the other staff we’ve met from Gene’s, Joey was professional, knowledgeable, took his time to get it right, and also was personable. It is always a pleasure doing business with Gene’s!”

“Gene's is very simply the best there is. Cody, Chris, PJ are all aces when it comes to finding and repairing plumbing issues. They are genuine, very hard working, and seemingly tireless. They stayed on the job until it was fixed. Between digging a 9 foot hole to locate the issue, to repairing it, then covering it back over they stayed with it – with more patience that I would have on my best day! They are calm and professional. I could not be more pleased.”
