About
Backflow Prevention Services, LLC has certified more than 1,000 clients over 15 years, making it one of Baton Rouge's most experienced authorities in cross-connection control and backflow prevention program management for commercial and institutional water systems. Facility managers and property owners across the greater Baton Rouge metro — including office complexes, healthcare facilities, industrial plants, multifamily communities, and government installations — rely on BPS to keep potable water supplies protected and to maintain compliance with EPA regulations, Louisiana state policy, and applicable plumbing codes. Rather than functioning as a general plumbing contractor, BPS occupies a specialized niche: end-to-end backflow prevention program administration. Their scope covers the full compliance lifecycle, including record keeping, software management via their proprietary GARDER® SaaS platform, permitting coordination, construction plan review, public relations, letter distribution to property occupants, and direct engagement with non-compliant customers on behalf of water utilities and large facility portfolios. For water systems and municipalities — such as Lafayette Utilities System (LUS) — BPS provides air gap response coordination and maintains approved tester registries, giving facility managers a single point of accountability across multi-site portfolios. Their Backflow Boot Camp program assists water systems with the development, implementation, and ongoing management of cross-connection control programs, an invaluable resource for institutional and government clients navigating complex regulatory environments. Consulting services help new clients stand up compliant backflow prevention programs from scratch. As of January 1, 2025, BPS has sunset its tester certification and recertification training courses, sharpening focus exclusively on program management and consulting. Commercial property managers seeking a compliance-driven partner for backflow prevention oversight, documentation, and regulatory coordination in Baton Rouge will find BPS uniquely positioned to reduce liability and protect water quality across their entire asset portfolio.
