Plumbers Reports/Bill Dispute

To request a water bill adjustment, you’ll need a plumber’s report. It must be from a DC-licensed plumber and include their license number, a description of the repairs, and the name, address, and date of service. You may qualify for up to 50% off excess water charges. 

To proceed with your adjustment request, please provide a copy of the plumber’s report. You may be eligible for an adjustment of up to 50% of the excess water usage. The report must meet the following criteria: 

  • Must be from a DC-registered plumber, including their license number
  • Include a detailed description of the repairs made
  • Clearly state the name, service address, and the date the repairs were completed 

Once received, we will review the report to determine if an adjustment is warranted. 

For more information, please visit our bill dispute website, where you can also submit your dispute directly by using our online form.
