About Us

The City of North Richland Hills takes pride in providing quality water and sewer utility services to more than 22,500 residential and business customers. The water provided by the city consistently meets or exceeds all state and federal drinking water requirements. The City of North Richland Hills purchases its drinking water, as well as sewer treatment services, from the City of Fort Worth and the Trinity River Authority as a wholesale customer.

All water and sewer operations, maintenance and customer services are provided in an efficient manner and have effectively kept pace with the growth of our community. The city strives to provide these important services to customers at the lowest price possible. 

Water Office 

The Water Office is responsible for setting up new accounts, reading meters and processing bills and payments. Questions about establishing new service, disconnecting service or billing should be directed to the Water Office at 817-427-6200. 

Please Update Your Contact Information

If you have changed your telephone number since opening your utility account, please contact our office at 817-427-6200 to provide updated information.  It is important to ensure that the telephone contact information associated with your account is current.  The City may contact you by telephone if:

• a leak is identified at the property that would require water service to be temporarily turned off;
• there is an issue with your account or payment ;
• your account becomes delinquent, at which time the City provides notification of a pending service disconnection for non-payment; and
• the City sends an informational broadcast to its utility customers related to water service interruptions or other water service issues in your area.
