What to Check Before Calling About a High Miami-Dade Water Bill
Miami-Dade’s Water and Sewer resources explain that high water bills are often caused by undetected leaks. Registered account users can monitor water and sewer consumption and request a high water bill investigation or underground leak adjustment.
Check usage history
Use the online account to monitor water and sewer consumption.
Look for leaks
Running toilets, irrigation and underground leaks are common causes.
Request help

Compare usage, not only total dollars
A high total can include past balance or fees.

Review water consumption, sewer charges, previous balance, payment history, billing period and any fees. Do not assume the full bill increase is only new water use.
2
Check common Miami-Dade leak sources
Small leaks can create big bills in warm-weather homes.
▾
Check toilets, irrigation timers, outdoor spigots, pool fill lines, water softeners, water heater area, underground lines, damp yard spots and fixtures that run when no one is using water.
3
Use official account requests
Miami-Dade offers account tools for bill investigations and leak adjustments.
▾
Log in to your account to request a high water bill investigation or underground leak adjustment where applicable. Keep plumber invoices, repair dates, photos and meter readings if you have them.
