Set alerts
Alerts can be programmed by email or text. The tracker also offers vacation alerts for temporary date ranges.
Compare rainfall
The tracker can help compare usage versus rainfall and show whether irrigation is driving a high bill.
High League City Water Bill: What To Check First
Check service dates
Look for guests, pool filling, pressure washing, hose left on, irrigation changes or abnormal use during the billed period.
Check irrigation settings
League City warns that landscaper changes, power outages or over-irrigation can increase usage quickly.
Check common leaks
Common causes include leaking toilets, toilets that run after flushing, water softener problems, dripping faucets, broken pipes and water heater issues.
Verify the read on the bill
Check the Water Tracker and confirm the current read is greater than the read on your bill.
Do a no-water test
Turn off all water in the home and check the meter/tracker. Run an overnight test if needed to see whether water is recorded while everything is off.
Fix leaks before requesting adjustment
If you find a leak, repair it first and keep the repair receipt or proof of repair.

Local League City Water Bill Tips That Save Time
Use Water Tracker before calling about a high bill
It can show which day usage jumped. That helps identify irrigation, guests, pool fill, hose left on or a leak.
Do not wait for leak-adjustment approval
Payments or arrangements remain your responsibility while the leak request is under review.
Bank drafts lock early
Bank draft files are transmitted two working days before due date, so changes must be made before the FTP bank-draft date.
Sewer is capped
League City does not meter sewer separately; sewer is based on metered water use and capped at 10,000 gallons.
