If your water bill seems high, here’s what might be happening:

• Dripping faucets: Always make sure your faucets are turned completely off.
• Running toilets: It is important to be aware if this becomes an issue. Running toilets can leak more water than we realize and should be repaired as soon as possible.
• Extra usage: Have you been watering your lawn and garden, filling a pool, or washing your car? Any extra water usage can add up.

Look at your water meter to determine if you have an internal plumbing leak.

If the red pointer on your meter is moving, and you are certain no water is being used at the time, this indicates there is an internal leak. The first place to check is your toilet or faucets.
