High bill help

What to Check If Your Rockville Water Bill Seems Too High

A high Rockville water/sewer bill can come from real water use, toilet leaks, irrigation, underground leaks, estimated usage, prior balance, or a change in billing cycle. Check the simple causes first before requesting meter reread or testing.

High-bill clue	Possible cause	First action
Usage suddenly increased	Running toilet, irrigation leak, underground leak or outside hose use.	Check toilets, hose bibs, irrigation, soft ground and meter movement.
Sewer charge looks high	Sewer may be billed based on water consumption.	Review usage and official rates before disputing only the sewer line item.
Payment not showing	Wrong account, processing delay or failed payment.	Check InvoiceCloud confirmation and call Utility Billing at 240-314-8420.
Water outside or discolored water	Water, sewer or stormwater emergency.	Call the 24-hour emergency line at 240-314-8567 if urgent.

💧

Leak-check tip: Turn off all water fixtures, then look for meter movement if your meter is accessible. Also test toilets with food coloring in the tank; color appearing in the bowl without flushing can indicate a leak.

Rockville Emergency Assistance Program for Utility Shut-Off Help
