Our water shut off valve in the garage is surrounded by cement as we have a patio and cement driveway. I will call the water company tomorrow and ask them to check the calibration of the meter. This is such a headache. From now on I am going to be out looking at that meter. I hate to lift the top because I am afraid of snakes or whatever else I might find.

Set your payment up using Bill Pay with your checking account. You receive the Water Bill, go into Bill Pay on your checking account & pay the amount on your Water Bill. If it’s EXCESSIVE & you have checked everything on your part, I would pay the normal amount you use, and begin disputes with the Water Company. Perhaps their meter is not working or the hand held reader. When I can’t get cooperation from a company that deserves a second look, I call the Media to do a story using all your facts. You’ll get satisfaction from said Company immediately 😇
