FAQs
If you have a meter you will pay for your water through a standing charge
(which depends on the size of your meter) and a volumetric rate. For smaller non-households, the volumetric rate is the same as that for households.
If you do not have a water meter you will be charged in the same way as
unmetered household customers. Your bill is not based on how much water you use but is usually made up of a fixed charge (the ‘standing charge’) and a charge related to the rateable value of your property. The fixed charge covers things like billing and customer service costs.
Sewerage services have four main activities, which are for collecting and treating:
• foul sewage
• surface water drainage
• highway drainage
• trade effluent
Charges for foul sewage and trade effluent are based on the amount (and strength for trade effluent) discharged. Companies currently have different approaches to charging for surface water drainage and highway drainage.
If you can demonstrate that you do not receive any of these services apart from highway drainage you should be entitled to a reduction in charges.
Charges for customers who use less than 50 Ml (250 Ml in Wales) are subject to price limits, which we set.
Charges for customers who use more than 50 Ml water (250 Ml in Wales) are not subject to price limits. However, the difference between charges for large users and households must be neither unduly preferential nor discriminatory to large-users.
Customers in eligible premises can choose to purchase water from either their existing water supplier, or from one of a number of water supply licensees. Find out more about arrangements for competition.
Water and sewerage charges change every year. So, your bill will change from one year to the next. The level of your bill and how much it changes from year to year depends on which company supplies your water and sewerage services. Each company faces different challenges in delivering services to consumers. This means that costs and charges will vary from company to company but we check that charges are fair and are within the price limits we set.You can find about about average bills since privatisation.For specific details of your charges, you should contact your water company.You can also find out:
If you use more than a specified amount of water, you may be able to opt for a large or intermediate tariff, instead of paying the standard charges. These tariffs generally consist of a:
• standing charge
• a volumetric rate
Some of these tariffs have an additional fixed charge and a lower volumetric rate for water used. Some have a lower volumetric rate for all consumption above a certain threshold, with no additional fixed charge. These tariff structures minimise the incentives for you to use more water just to qualify for the tariff.
If you use more than 50 Ml of water (250 Ml in Wales) your charges are not subject to price limits. However, under arrangements for competition, you can purchase water from either your existing water supplier, or from water supply licensees (as long as your premises are eligible).
