Water Rates Clydebank

The rates you pay for your water depend on whether your home has a water mete or not. You can find out whether your Clydebank water rates are metered or not by looking at your water bill. Homes with metered Clydebank water rates will have a meter number listed on their water bills.

If you've just moved in or you don't have a bill handy, you can look around your house or in the front garden for a meter. Sometimes the meter can be located inside your house near to the stop tap.

Homes that aren't metered will have the rateable value of the home instead of this. The rateable value part of your Clydebank water rates will have been determined by the local council in the 90s and unlikely to have changed significantly since then.

The average water rates Clydebank residents are being charged result in an average water bill of around £439 a year. This amount combines both sewerage costs and water supply.

Clydebank Water Hardness

Clydebank water hardness is rated as soft. While rainwater itself starts out as relatively soft, water hardness can change through the water cycle. Due to the way water filters through rocks in Scottish Water's supply area, water can pick up minerals, such as magnesium or calcium, on the way to your tap.

Clydebank No Water

If you have no water in your home, you need to find out if the issue is to do with your home plumbing or a Scottish Water outage impacting Clydebank.

  1. Check the "In Your Area" sections of the Scottish Water website for any information explaining why you have no water.
  2. Ask your neighbours whether they have the same issue as you.
  3. Check that your stop tap is open
  4. If you have no water, is it only no cold water? or no hot water? If you have cold water but no hot water, the issue will be with your home plumbing and not the water company
