March 31st is an important date in the water industry calendar, and is probably H²O Building Services busiest time of the year when making claims against water companies for reduced charges and rebates on water bills in particular reduction in fixed tariff charges such as: -
Surface water band charges levied by – Severn Trent Water, South Staffordshire Water, United Utilities, Welsh Water, Yorkshire Water and Northumbrian Water.
This charge is for collection, conveyance, treatment and disposal of rainwater that’s falls onto a property, the larger the site surface water the higher the charge and dependant on the category of claim to reduce this charge the claim and supporting documentation must be submitted before 31st March as any claims after this date the clients potential refund could be reduced as some water companies only refund back the last financial year and the cost to you the client could be substantial.
Commissioning a water audit may result in some quick wins, refunds due to water billing errors and reduce charges going forwards. If you refer to the postcode checker provided to help you and to identify any sites within: -
