Retailing

If your business is in the retail sector then your main areas of water cost are likely to be the water used by your customers and staff for “domestic” purposes like toilets and washing facilities. You may also have other facilities which use water on site like in store bakeries and cafes.

The used water from these activities will also generate sewerage charges. In some water company areas, you may also pay significant amounts for the removal of the rainwater from your site which falls on roofs and car parking areas, known as “surface water” charges.

An initial Bill Analysis exercise forms the best starting point for a full review of your water and waste water costs. We will identify any overcharges on your water bills and ensure that you are getting the best possible deal from your water company in terms of the most appropriate tariffs for your water and waste water usage. It will also enable us to identify other opportunities to reduce your costs and reveal any unusual levels of water consumption for further investigation.

Our other services can follow on from the initial bill analysis exercise, or can be carried out separately to address specific areas. We can target potential problem areas and we can also identify the cost savings you could achieve through Water Conservation.

Our Waste Water Management services will help us to ensure that you are paying no more than necessary for disposal of waste water and surface water from your site and we can identify ways to ensure that your site’s Environmental performance is maximised, ensuring you meet any legislative requirements and that you can demonstrate your company’s Green credentials to existing or potential customers and stakeholders.

If you have multiple sites then going forward our Bill Verification service will help you. Our expertise in water and waste water billing puts us in the best position to manage your ongoing bills to achieve your cost reductions and we can also carry out benchmarking exercises to compare water and waste water efficiency at different sites across your group.
