All4Comparing - Water Options Comparison

In England and Wales water companies are privatised (Water isn't privatised in Scotland or Northern Ireland), but you can't switch to a different water company (like you would switch gas and electricity), to find a cheaper or better supplier.

The only choice you might have is whether have a water meter or not. If you have the choice, it's likely that if you have more people than bedrooms, a water meter may cost more than unmetered water. If you have less people than bedrooms, a water meter should save you money.
