Licensed Backflow & Pressure Specialists

Two Invisible Problems That Deserve Real Attention

Most homeowners don’t think about backflow prevention or water pressure until something goes wrong — a failed inspection, a pipe joint that springs a leak, or water that trickles instead of flows. Both issues affect every faucet, fixture, and appliance in your home, and both can quietly cause damage long before you notice. Done has been solving these problems for Denver metro homeowners since 1999, with the licensing and equipment to handle everything from basic pressure checks to certified backflow testing. See our full lineup of plumbing services to learn how we protect your home’s water system from every angle.

Colorado requires annual backflow preventer testing for most residential irrigation systems and any cross-connection with a non-potable source. Our certified testers complete the inspection, file the required report with your local water authority, and replace or repair the device on the spot if it fails. On the pressure side, we diagnose low or high pressure, install and set pressure-reducing valves, and add thermal expansion tanks to systems with backflow preventers — protecting your water heater and pipes from the stress of pressure spikes.

  • Certified Backflow Testers Our plumbers carry the state certifications required to test, repair, and replace backflow prevention devices — and to file the documentation your water provider requires.
  • Water Pressure Diagnosis We measure your actual supply pressure, identify whether the source is the street main or your pressure-reducing valve, and give you an honest assessment of what needs to change.
  • Code-Compliant Installations Every backflow device and pressure-regulating valve we install meets current Colorado plumbing code, protecting both your home and your relationship with your water utility.

Warning Signs

Signs You May Have a Pressure or Backflow Problem

Water pressure and backflow issues often announce themselves in subtle ways. Here's what to look for before a small problem turns into a costly one.

  • Weak Flow at Multiple Fixtures

    If pressure is low throughout your home — not just at one faucet — the culprit is usually a failing pressure-reducing valve, a partially closed main, or low supply pressure from the street.

  • Banging Pipes (Water Hammer)

    That loud bang when you shut off a faucet quickly is water hammer — a pressure surge that stresses pipe joints over time. High incoming pressure or missing air chambers are common causes.

  • Failed Annual Backflow Inspection

    Denver-area water utilities require annual certification on most backflow preventers. A failed test means the device must be repaired or replaced before you're back in compliance.

  • Water Heater Pressure Relief Valve Dripping

    A T&P valve that drips or weeps often signals thermal expansion — pressure building inside a closed system with no place to go. This is a direct symptom of missing or undersized expansion tank.

Backflow and Pressure Services We Provide

From annual compliance testing to full pressure system upgrades, Done handles the complete range of backflow prevention and water pressure services for Denver homes.

I've been using this company for years now, both for my own home and for a rental property, for everything from basic leaks to a new underground sewer line. They're always very prompt and professional, and provide options without being pushy. Today's service guy, Robby, asked how much technical detail I wanted to know, and explained the problem and repair options at my level.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often does my backflow preventer need to be tested?

Most Denver-area water utilities require annual testing for backflow prevention assemblies connected to irrigation systems or any cross-connection with a non-potable source. You’ll typically receive a notice from your water provider before the deadline. Done can test and certify the device in a single visit.

What is the normal water pressure range for a home?

Most plumbing fixtures and appliances are designed to operate between 40 and 80 psi. Below 40 psi and you’ll notice weak flow; above 80 psi and you’re putting unnecessary stress on pipe joints, valves, and appliance supply lines. If your PRV is set outside this range, we can adjust or replace it.

Do I need a thermal expansion tank if I already have a backflow preventer?

Almost certainly yes. A backflow preventer turns your plumbing into a closed system — water heated in your tank has nowhere to expand, so pressure spikes instead. An expansion tank absorbs that pressure and protects your water heater and plumbing from premature wear. We can inspect your setup and advise you. You can also explore our water heater services if you have related concerns.

My irrigation system failed its backflow test — what happens next?

A failed test means the device needs to be repaired or replaced before your water utility will clear the violation. Done carries common backflow assembly parts on our trucks, so we can often repair or swap the device the same day as the test. We’ll re-test after the repair and file the updated certification on your behalf.
