Backflow Testing, Certification & Repair in Fort Lee Borough, NJ
Fort Lee Borough is Bergen County’s most strategically significant community — a borough of approximately 38,000 permanent residents that anchors the eastern end of the George Washington Bridge, the busiest bridge in the world, and serves as the primary gateway between New Jersey and upper Manhattan. Fort Lee’s identity is shaped by this extraordinary geographic position: its high-rise residential towers and commercial corridor along Main Street reflect the urban density created by bridge traffic and Manhattan proximity, while its significant Korean-American community, its national headquarters for several major corporations, and the dramatic Palisades cliff setting give it a character unlike any other Bergen County community. Fort Lee is also famous as the birthplace of the American film industry — early filmmakers came here to escape Edison’s patent enforcement, making Fort Lee the location of America’s first film studios from roughly 1908-1918.
South Jersey Backflow provides certified annual backflow testing and certification, backflow repair and rebuild service, and backflow preventer enclosures throughout Fort Lee Borough for all residential, commercial, corporate, and institutional property types.
