I opened up a hydro and water bill for my 4 plex in Hamilton and am quite shocked at the amounts.
It seems that the water bill for the past 2 months has jumped from 1.7 cubic metres a day last year to 8.66 cubic metres. My water and sewer charge for 2 months (Aug/Sep) is almost $1,000!
I have checked with the tenants to see what may be happening. Our property manager is replacing an older toilet in an upstairs unit and the people on the main floor grew tomatoes this year.
Any other ideas as to what may be happening? Could it be a water meter issue? Can leaking toilets put through that much water? Do tomato plants need that much watering? What else can it be? Any thoughts?
