Snapped shutoff valve under the sink flooded the cabinet. Same-day visit, replaced both angle stops while he was in there. Sensible.

Backflow Testing & Repair in Keokuk, Iowa
Backflow prevention keeps irrigation water, boiler water and process water from being pulled back into the drinking supply when pressure drops. Most Keokuk water authorities want an annual test on any device protecting a commercial building, a fire line or a lawn irrigation system.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Hard water is the quiet problem here
Water across much of Lee County carries enough mineral to scale the bottom of a water heater and fur up fixtures within a few years. If your Keokuk tank has started rumbling or your hot water runs out sooner than it used to, sediment is usually why. A flush and an anode check often buys years, and a softener stops the cycle.

They handled the permit for our water heater replacement so I did not have to think about it. Inspection passed first time.

Straightforward people. Told me the repair on my eleven year old heater would work but probably only buy me a year, gave me both prices, and let me decide. No pressure either way.

Backflow Testing in Keokuk: common questions
How often does a backflow device need testing?
Annually in most Keokuk 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 Keokuk, 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.
