Is South Staffs Water legit?

Legit, mixed reviews

For homes north and west of Birmingham, South Staffs Water is the genuine and only tap-water supplier, yet a leak can land on your bill. The pipe between the boundary and the house is the owner's to fix, and on a meter lost water only earns a credit if repaired within 30 days.

What we checked

  • Water supplier since 1853
  • Head office in Walsall
  • Sister company of Cambridge Water
  • Ratings on other review websites: 1.5/5

Watch out for

  • A Direct Debit that jumps once months of estimated readings are replaced by a real meter reading.
  • A leak on a supply pipe shared with neighbours, where repair costs may be split between the homes.
  • Sewerage charges on the same bill that belong to Severn Trent, which runs the sewers.

Leak on your supply pipe pushing up the bill?

We help you write it, it gets its own public page, and you can have it sent to South Staffs Water as a formal letter.

Why is my South Staffs Water bill so high?

A higher South Staffs Water bill usually comes from more water used, a leak on your side of the meter, a catch-up bill after estimated readings, or the yearly change in charges. Your bill also includes the sewerage charges South Staffs Water bills and collects for Severn Trent Water, so check whether the water or the sewerage part has risen. Read your meter and compare it with the readings on the bill; if the meter keeps moving while every tap is off, you may have a leak. To query the bill, call 0345 60 70 456 and ask for an actual reading.
