City of Hayward backflow repairs
The City of Hayward schedules and conducts backflow assembly tests itself and notifies the owner if a device fails. You don’t need to hire a tester for the annual test. When a device fails, BackflowCare makes minor repairs in Hayward. Moving or replacing a device takes a licensed plumbing contractor, and we can refer you to one we trust.
