Your postcode and your figures never leave this browser. If I cannot work out what you mean, those words are sent to be classified, and a bill photo goes only if you send one and confirm it. Nothing is stored either way. How that works.
If you have a meter
A standing charge a year, plus a rate for every cubic metre, which is 1,000 litres.
A year, before you use a drop.
Every 1,000 litres you use.
Assessed charges, if you cannot have a meter
A banded charge by property size, offered where a meter is not practical.
| Property | Water |

| single person | £146.39 |
Where this comes from, and where it could be wrong
Every figure is read from South Staffs Water's own charges scheme for 2026/27, twice, and only published where both readings agreed. Your actual bill depends on how much water you use and whether you have a meter, which is why the calculator on the charges page does the arithmetic.
Worth knowing about South Staffs Water
There is no unmetered standing charge here. The scheme says so in terms. A minimum annual charge of £123.52 applies instead.
South Staffs bills Severn Trent's sewerage charges on Severn Trent's behalf. Those amounts appear on your bill but they are not South Staffs charges.
