Your bill is based on how much water passes through your meter, which is read monthly. We read your water meter generally every 30 days. Some causes for high bills are: size of household, meter size, size of home or yard, pool use, intermittent running toilets, or irrigation leak. Another possible reason for a high bill is a leak. Please call our 512-246-1400 24/7 if you are concerned about a leak at your residence.
Your district may have an electronic water meter that will allow you to track watering patterns daily. To see if your district has electronic meters, please visit “My District” and select your district name. If your district has electronic meters, you will find instructions to sign up for this service.

Even though your water meter records every gallon used, you’re billed in increments of 1,000 gallons. When the meter is read, the meter reader reads only in thousands. If you use within the 1,000 gallon range of water each month, your bill will be the same.
If you have a billing dispute, call us Mon-Fri at 512-246-1400 from 8 am – 5pm to discuss your concerns.

Not all districts participate in winter wastewater averaging. For the districts that do, winter wastewater averaging is how your district determines how much you will be charged for wastewater. Since the district does not have meters on the wastewater lines leaving your property, the billing department averages your water usage during the winter months to determine what you will be billed for wastewater. Your winter wastewater averaging dates are typically included on the bill messages of your utility bills if your district participates in wastewater averaging. Your water usage typically during the winter months is lower, as little or no water is used for irrigation. Your updated wastewater charge is reflected on April bills. Please call 512-246-1400 with questions specific to your district.
You must pay your bill in full to have your water service restored.
Please see “How do I pay my water bill?” for payment options.
Please call customer service at 512-246-1400 with questions about possible payment arrangements per district policy.
NOTE: If your water is illegally restored you will be assessed a possible fine. It is a state felony to tamper with your water meter. Our technicians inspect premises periodically to determine if water has been illegally restored.

Please call our emergency line at 512-246-1400 to let our technicians know about a possible leak at your residence or nearby your residence. It is important to conserve water and get the water turned off as soon as possible and address any leaks.
To check for leaks, turn off all indoor and outdoor faucets and then watch your water meter. If the low flow indicator (usually a small triangle or diamond on the face of the meter) is turning, you may have a leak. Watch your meter for 5 or 10 minutes to see if the fine flow indicator moves. If it continues to move, then a leak exists on your property and needs to be located. It is recommended you call a licensed plumber or a licensed irrigator specialist. If you continue to have high water bills and don’t think you have a leak, monitoring your water meter on a daily or weekly basis helps establish a history and pattern to help understand why the usage is so high.
Your district may have an electronic water meter that will allow you to track watering patterns daily. This is especially helpful in determining if you have a leak or a possible issue with your irrigation system. To see if your district has electronic meters, please visit “My District” and select your district name. If your district has electronic meters, you will find instructions to sign up for this service.

Water Quality
Absolutely. Our operations staff tests the water in accordance to State and Federal regulations to ensure water meets drinking water standards. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) also tests periodically.
You may call 512-246-1400 to report anything unusual. Water main breaks or heavy water usage required to fight a fire may occasionally discolor your water. The cloudiness or discoloration is caused by sediment dislodged by sudden pressure changes in the water system. The water will clear up as these sediments are flushed from the system. This water is safe to drink.
