A water bill is usually high because of hidden leaks, increased household usage, inefficient fixtures, or outdoor watering. In many cases, sewer bills rise at the same time because they’re calculated based on water usage. If your bill spikes without a clear reason, a silent leak is often the cause. Common reasons why your water bill is so high include:
– Hidden or underground leaks
– Running or leaking toilets
– Increased outdoor water use
– Old or inefficient appliances
– Household usage changes
