Ask The Plumber – High Water Bill

Why is my water bill so much high the last few months?

Homeowners have struggled to figure out why there has been a spike in their water bill. They call our office and ask for help. Our technicians have come out to the site to discover the customer’s unexpected. Often we find that the culprit is a leaking pipe or a faucet. More often than not, though, the main cause is a running toilet. Just a few drops of water a minute will add more to the bill than you realize. A constant leak the size of a needlepoint wastes approximately 120 gallons per day. Simply fixing of one of these fixtures will solve the problem.
