Ignoring the date of the last check on the valve already installed.
An installed valve deserves a check. In Greater Montréal, we check how it works to spot failures and better understand the state of your protection against backups.
Have my valve checkedAfter years without an inspection, there is no way to know how the valve performs today. Debris or a faulty part can keep it from closing, with no obvious sign in daily life.
Ignoring the date of the last check on the valve already installed.
Fearing a faulty seal after a backup in the building.
Lacking recent documents on the condition of the protection device.
Operation, watertightness and closing of the valve are checked to spot mechanical anomalies or obstructions, with a report.
The inspection covers the proper operation and watertightness of the backwater valve. It lets us look for signs of wear or defects that could compromise its role.
The check includes a closing test under simulated pressure and a search for debris or mechanical faults that could hinder the valve’s movement.
A written inspection report is provided after the visit. Owners and condo syndicates can keep the observations and track the work to plan.
The price depends on how accessible the valve is and the number of devices to check. We provide a free quote before the service call.
If you do not know when it was last checked, after a backup in the building or when buying a property. A valve can look normal and still be stuck.
We access the valve, test closing under simulated pressure, look for debris and mechanical faults, then provide a written report.

Based in Delson, Plomberie JG serves Greater Montréal. For this service, give your address, the type of building and access to the installation so we can confirm we can take it on and prepare the request.
To define the check, we take into account the model, previous inspections and the problems observed. Manufacturer documents and building-specific requests also serve as benchmarks. The schedule is discussed based on your installation and how it is used.
In a condo building, we invite the syndicate to check the declaration of co-ownership and the location of the valve to identify who is responsible for follow-up. Rules vary depending on the parties involved. The report then keeps a record of the inspection.
Before the visit, we ask that you keep the path to the access hatch clear, without removing the valve. A photo of its location helps us prepare. If the device is hidden behind a finish, we discuss the access needed together.
