What to Check Before Requesting a Miami-Dade High Water Bill Investigation
Miami-Dade says leaks, incorrect meter readings and vandalism can lead to high bills. Before calling, review household changes, outdoor use and possible leak clues.
| Question to ask | Why it matters | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Did more people stay at the property? | More occupants or guests can increase water use. | Compare the billing cycle to visitors or household changes. |
| Did you fill a pool or pressure clean? | Pool fill and pressure cleaning can create one-time high use. | Keep dates, photos and service receipts. |
| Was a hose left on? | Outdoor water can run unnoticed for hours. | Check hose bibs, irrigation timers and outdoor fixtures. |
| Any unusual moisture? | Wet lawn, wall, floor or meter box may point to a leak. | Inspect yard, meter box, bathrooms, water heater and irrigation. |
| Was the home vacant? | Usage in a vacant home can signal a leak, running toilet or vandalism. | Review meter movement and check all fixtures. |
