Whether your business has had to close due to Covid-19 or you’re continuing to trade as your business supports our key workers and communities, then it’s worth ensuring you aren’t wasting water and money as a result of a leak.

If your premises is closed

If you are visiting your property take a meter reading when you leave and make a note of it. Please don’t visit your property just to read your water meter and only read your meter if it is safe to do so. When you next return to the property take another meter reading. If the reading has increased, then you may have a leak.

If your premises remains open

At the end of the day check that all of the water fittings are switched off and read the meter. When you open the next working day check your meter again. If the read has increased, you may have a leak.
