Company History
AM Backflow began as a niche contractor focused on backflow assemblies and testing. Over time the workload expanded. They added water-pipe work and general plumbing to meet local demand, keeping a focus on practical, code-aware solutions.
Growth was steady. The team stayed small by design so technicians could respond quickly across San Jose and surrounding communities. The company developed working relationships with several local water districts and building inspectors, which helped them learn regional code expectations.
Leadership
Local leadership includes a founder who trained as a backflow specialist and then broadened into general plumbing. The leadership maintains active ties with municipal inspectors and participates in regional testing programs. That local presence helps the company keep current with changing regulations and the needs of older Bay Area housing stock and newer developments alike.
Specialties & Highlights
- Testing, Repairs & Installation focus — clear expertise in backflow assemblies and water-pipe work.
- 24/7 emergency availability — technicians respond nights and weekends for urgent leaks or failures.
- Licensed technicians who work with local inspectors and water districts.
