Backflow Testing, Certification & Repair in Hillsborough Township, NJ
Hillsborough Township is one of Somerset County’s largest and most rapidly growing municipalities — a sprawling township of approximately 40,000 residents covering more than 56 square miles in the county’s central section, encompassing a remarkable range of community types from the dense residential developments near Route 206 and Route 202 to the agricultural landscapes of the western sections near the Millstone River and the Six Mile Run Reservoir. Hillsborough has become one of Somerset County’s most active residential growth markets, attracting families drawn by its exceptional school system, relative affordability compared to eastern Somerset County communities, and the Route 206 corridor’s commercial amenities. The D&R Canal State Park corridor runs through Hillsborough’s southern sections, connecting the township to one of New Jersey’s most celebrated linear parks.
South Jersey Backflow provides certified annual backflow testing and certification, backflow repair and rebuild service, and backflow preventer enclosures throughout Hillsborough Township for all residential, commercial, and agricultural property types.

Hillsborough's Large Residential Irrigation Market
Hillsborough Township’s residential subdivisions — developed primarily from the late 1980s through the 2010s — have one of Somerset County’s highest concentrations of in-ground irrigation systems. In Hillsborough’s newer subdivisions, irrigation was essentially a standard feature in new construction. Many devices installed in the 1990s are now 25 to 35 years old. South Jersey Backflow serves a very large Hillsborough Township residential base with annual testing, NJ American Water filing, and annual reminder programs.
