About the deceased

Future water use

We need to know what is happening at the property regarding future water use. If the property is not occupied but you still require water, for decorating or cleaning for example, you will need to tell us who is going to be responsible for paying any future bills.

Please use the space at the bottom of the page to explain further.
 

1. Water required

Where properties were occupied jointly but only one name was on the bill, please enter the date of death.
 

2. Water not required

We understand the property may be for sale, have reverted to the landlord, be awaiting probate or redevelopment etc. Please try to give us all the relevant information.
 

Any other information

This form will go to a dedicated team who will take the necessary action. If you need assistance or to tell us about something different, please Contact us (opens in a new tab/window).
