When my parents moved from NY to FL, my Dad did a lot of complaining about his water bill.
Can anyone give me an idea how water usage is billed in the Summerville area and what it might run for a couple with a 3 BR, 2 bath home with in ground sprinklers and a pool?
Firs of all, it will depend on where you are located in "Summerville". Some areas include sewer charges and are under the City of North Charleston jurisdiction. I would call the utility company and ask them. I believe that would be your best bet.
I get my water from Sumerville Public Works and there is a basic sewer charge of $24 and a basic water charge of $20 for the first so many gallons of water. (something like 1000 gallons). Can't remember off the top of my head. My last bill was for $45.40.
Oh, ok. I'm used to septic tanks - we call em cesspools up here. Wells can be a pain, especially if you lose power and don't have a generator. Are there some areas with septic tanks but public water? How about out towards Ridgeville and Givhans? What do they have?
