Dunno. Washing machine on a couple of times a day, shower used at least 4 times a day, a few baths through the week. Three toilets, flushed probably 20 times a day in total. We haven't used the dishwasher for a while but there is probably 5 to 6 wash ups done a day. I wash the cars every couple of weeks but only using buckets of water and a sponge etc.

I would estimate that my useage is similar to yours. Maybe slightly less.
I would suggest turning off your stop cock at the point where the water pipe enters your home. Then go and look at the meter and check that its stopped, to rule out a leak.

I have to say though, I thought with our similar usage that £600-£700 was the norm going by what others have said? Maybe your meter is faulty with a few teeth missing off the cogs  Smiley

is it?  I've no idea what others pay in general for water. We are certainly not tight with our water use.
How many bedrooms do you have Arriba if you don't mind me asking?  I read somewhere if you have as many bedrooms as people in your house, you would probably save by having a meter.

We pay £380 annually, but that's not on a meter.  I've thought about going on a meter, but a few people have said to me that we might end up paying more, do I've never looked into it properly.

There's 4 of us.  I don't really know whether we'd fall into the category of average or heavy water users tbh.
