Lufkin Water Bill Too High? Check Water, Sewer, Sanitation and Private Leaks
Because Utility Collections handles water, sewer and sanitation accounts, your utility bill may include more than water usage. Always review the full bill before assuming the increase is caused only by water consumption.
Check private leaks
Inspect toilets, faucets, outside hose bibs, irrigation lines, water heater area and damp ground before calling.
Check all charges
Review water, sewer, sanitation, prior balance, penalties or service-related charges on the statement.
Call with details
Have account number, service address, current bill, previous bill and payment confirmation ready before calling.
