Backup:
MSDN - BACKUP (Transact-SQL)[^]

Restore:
MSDN - RESTORE (Transact-SQL)[^]

Just call those commands with an SqlCommand

Take care that the paths you include into the query are alway local to the server not to the client. If you want to backup to or restore from any other location than the drives from the server you need a network share where the server has access to.
