When you can expect your first bill
Metered properties
If your new property has a water meter, you should receive your first bill within six months of moving in.
We will aim to read your meter at least once a year and will send you a bill every six months.
If you set up a monthly payment plan, we will send you a statement within six working days confirming the arrangement you have made with us.
Your monthly payment plan will be estimated on the number of people living at your property and the amount of water we expect you to use.
Unmetered properties
If your new property does not have a water meter, we will send you your first bill within six working days which will be calculated from the date you moved in and will run up to the 31 March the following year.
Unmetered bills are sent out every February/March and show the charges for the next year (1 April to 31 March).
