If you are metered, it depends upon what you use plus the inevitable
standing charges plus other fixed charges.

All in, we pay £27 pm, metered, but we are charged on our likely usage
of 246L per day. Because we use less, around 190L we will end up well
in credit.

Mine is about £20 pcm and as a curiosity since we are on a watershed we

I think most people have a single bill including both. I feel a bit hard
done by that Northumbrian water isn't cheaper than Anglian!

They have some massive reservoirs and no steelworks left to supply.

My Yorkshire water sewage only is about £360/year so you are getting a
bargain there - the supply of water to you is effectively free.

Mine is billed as two DD payments six months apart.

It hadn't hit my radar until last week, that water supply seems about to
be unbundled from the pipes, in the same was as gas/elec.

3 bed semi in east midlands, Severn Trent, billed on RV basis, £340/year
(about half for clean water, half for waste water including rain runoff,
no soakaways) as a single occupant I'd undoubtedly be better off with a
meter.

We pay £1083 p.a. for the two of us. We are in England. The sewage plant
is in England and we pay Welsh Water for that. The water, I believe,
comes from Wales and we pay United Utilities in England for that. UU
provide the combined bill that helps maintain the lifestyle of both sets

We are on rv mainly because when, years ago, I rang and asked about
meters I was told that there was no way I would be provided with a meter
that I could also read myself.

About 2 years ago, I got really angry, sat down and compared what I
would pay for a typical amount of metered water p. a. in London compared
with what I was paying here. Quite a hard sum, taking in all the
standing charges etc for both supply and sewerage.

We are paying about double the London rate.

Ah! Yes, I'm reading per calendar month, which I think must be correct

Detached. 2 bed. 1 person. North Yorks. Metered.
per annum: Usage: 23 cu meters; Cost: GBP175
Quarterly bill from Yorks Water (for both waer & sewage). Yorks Water
provide water, and pass on sewage payment to United Utilities.

Last time I checked, the rateable value bill would have been about
GBP800/year, so I'm happy.

No. My mistake.

I answered about £20 for supply then looked it up and found actuals of

I was paying about £60 every 6 months for metered water but now
they have gone to quarterly bills which is silly for a low user
like me. It's only me and I rarely use a hosepipe, if the grass
goes yellow in summer, it always recovers in Autumn.

We've just been fitted with a RFI meter, from what I can see, you can

IIRC Ofwat require water meters to be readable by consumers. So I mean
no insult when I ask if have you checked that there is not a cover over
the eye-ball readable display? I met one such where the plastic cover
matched the plastic meter housing so from above it was hard to spot the

You're all making me feel good. Latest bill from Severn Trent this
morning - £78.54 for 24 weeks, 104 pints a day they helpfully tell me,
single occupancy, metered.
Last October it was £92.72 for 27 weeks, 121 pints. I used 3 cu metres
less this time which I think might be the outcome of being out for 13
hours a day for 20 days over Christmas.

Well, perhaps you should investigate! I'm in Warwickshire - Severn-Trent
area. Four-bed detached house - just two of us, but some water used for
irrigation and topping up a large pond. Metered supply. My bill is
around £350 p.a. If we didn't have a meter, and were charged according
to rateable value instead, we'd be paying about £640.

Before I opted for a meter, I bought my own meter and installed it under
the kitchen sink on the rising main so that I could check usage and see
whether I would be better off. When I subsequently applied for a meter,
Severn Trent simply replaced my meter with theirs - which I *can* read.
If they'd insisted on installing it outside where I couldn't read it,
I'd have left mine in place so that I could check their readings.

Couldn't you do something similar? My metered supply is costing only
just over half of what I would be paying, based on rateable value.

East Anglia, not metered, different companies for sewage and water,
decent-sized detached house.
Water bill is paid over 10 months of the year, total of £314 p.a.
Sewage bill is per quarter, total of 313 p.a.

So total water and sewerage bill is £630 p.a. approx.

Must be one of the highest mentioned here, if not the highest. Just
like the hardness, officially Very Hard Water, so I have to add
running a softener to that.

Realy? Wow. The first thing I had to do was find mine. It's buried in a
hedgerow about 200 yards away.

Meters remote from property and shared supplies do seem to confuse Water
board employees.

One came to swap our meter; I watched him wander along the verge, up the
drive, around the garden and then he eventually came to the door. I
suggested he get back in his van and drive up the road to a particular
gateway. He should then walk across the field until he came to a
drystone wall and the meter would be just this side of the wall at the LHS
of gateway.

He asked where the stop cock was.

Told hime that he needed to cross the next field and go across the
farmyard, tell the farmer his water would be going off and that he would
find it about 20 yds along the farm drive.

He looked at me and said he wouldn't bother - he'd just report that it
needed extra pipework that he didn't carry and someone else would come
out.

That was about 4 years ago.

That might not work out equally per month though, here they split the

In England non-metered water is based on rateable value but not metered
water. Are you sure that your bills are not based on usage.

My bills are around £12 per month for water alone and approx another £12

Water and waste here in Kent. Different companies for each, but about £70
a month on non-metered.

We have just gone over to a meter, and my estimate is that it's going to
go down to about £60 a month.

Hell's teeth. Two replies, 27 and 8 pcm, compared to my 60 pcm. Having
said that, the Scottish system used rateable values, and I cannot do
much about that.


In England non-metered water is based on rateable value but not metered
water. Are you sure that your bills are not based on usage.

A sweeping (and thus inaccurate) statement. Water meters are common now,
and in the next few years most people will end up with one.

This is inspired by the 'energy' thread. Not a question, really - I'm
just interested in what other people pay for water. I think I pay a
lot (60 pm) but have nothing to compare.

Our situation is slightly complicated in that we're in Scotland and our
premises are combined commercial and residential, with one metered
supply to both.

So, am I paying a lot, or about average?

Water and waste here in Kent. Different companies for each, but about
£70 a month on non-metered.

We have just gone over to a meter, and my estimate is that it's going to
go down to about £60 a month.

P.S. 5 bedroom terraced house; 2 adults, two semi-trained adults. Mostly
baths, not showers.
