Emergency Info FAQ

How do I find out if I have a leak on my property?

If you think you may have a leak but are not sure, you can find out by turning off all appliances and fixtures that use water, and then check your water meter to see if it is spinning. If it is, you know there’s a leak.

If you would like assistance in determining whether there is a leak, or if you can’t safely access your meter, please call our Customer Service Center at (508) 775-0063.
