Frequently asked questions

Who supplies the water in Biggleswade?

Anglian Water supplies Biggleswade. You can reach them on 03457 145 145. In parts of Biggleswade the supplier can vary street to street, so check your bill if you are not sure.

I can see water leaking in the road — who do I tell?

Report it to Anglian Water on 03457 145 145. Leaks in the road or pavement are on the public network, which is theirs to fix — anyone can report one, and it costs nothing.

I have no water — what should I do?

Check with a neighbour first. If they have no water either, the problem is likely on the mains — call Anglian Water on 03457 145 145. If it is only your property, check your internal stop tap is fully open; if it is, the fault may be on your own supply pipe — the part we repair and replace.

Who handles sewerage and drains in Biggleswade?

Anglian Water handles both the water supply and the wastewater in Biggleswade, so it is one company for both. The drains inside your property boundary are the owner's responsibility — that is the work we do.

Is the water hard or soft in Biggleswade?
