Winter splits pipes in the same places every year

The runs that fail in Boone are predictable: supply lines in exterior walls, anything crossing an unheated crawl space, and hose bibs left connected in November. Ice rarely bursts the pipe where it forms - it bursts it downstream where the pressure has nowhere to go, which is why the damage often shows up somewhere that never froze.

Boone customers on our backflow testing work

★★★★★

Sink drained slow, laundry backed up, and it turned out to be the main. Jetted it and cameraed it after so we could see it was actually clear.

Chuck E. · Boone, IA

★★★★★

Garbage disposal was humming and I assumed it was dead. He freed the jam, hit the reset, and did not charge me for a new unit I did not need. Honest is the word.

Kev S. · Ames, IA

★★★★★

Sewer camera before we finished the basement. Clean line, no work needed, and they said so. Plenty of places would have found something.

Backflow Testing in Boone: common questions

How often does a backflow device need testing?

Annually in most Boone jurisdictions, and some commercial and fire applications more often. We keep your date on file and remind you before it lapses.

What happens if my device fails the test?

We rebuild it and retest. We carry kits for the assemblies we see most in Boone, so failures are usually resolved on the same visit rather than turning into a second appointment.

Do you file the paperwork with the water authority?

Yes. The completed report goes to the authority and a copy goes to you, so there is nothing left on your desk to chase.

Should I have my irrigation backflow tested before winter?

Test on your normal annual schedule, but do winterise the device before the first hard Iowa freeze. A cracked assembly from freezing is a far bigger bill than a test.

Can you tell me what is wrong over the phone?

Often we can narrow it down, and sometimes we can tell you it is something you can fix yourself in five minutes. We would rather do that than send a truck you did not need.
