Pay a Fort Worth Water Bill, Use MyH2O, or Fix a High Usage Problem
Fort Worth water customers should not use the EPA WaterSense link or the generic 1-800 number that appeared in the old version of this article. The correct official route is the City of Fort Worth Water Department and the MyH2O portal.
Use this guide to pay online, make a one-time payment, register for MyH2O, check hourly water use, report a water main break, start new service, mail a payment, request billing help, and prepare for a high water bill call.

High Fort Worth Water Bill? Use MyH2O Before You Call
Fort Worth’s MyH2O system is especially useful for high bill questions because it can show previous day water use in hourly increments and help detect continuous flow. This gives you more detail than simply saying, “My bill is too high.”
Have this ready before calling customer service
- Account number, billing cycle and route number if available.
- Current bill and previous bill.
- Dates and times where MyH2O shows unusual usage.
- Photos or receipts from leak repairs.
- Notes about irrigation schedule, guests, pool filling, new appliances or tenant changes.
- Payment confirmation if a late or high bill notice arrived after you paid.
Report Water Main Breaks, Water Waste and Meter Issues
A water main break, possible sewer issue, illegal connection, meter problem or water waste report should not wait for a normal billing email response. The City says water main breaks can be reported 24 hours a day, seven days a week, including holidays.
