Our development portal is up and running
The portal makes it easy to apply for and track new connections, asset creation and works over applications. Once you’ve set up your account you can access the dashboard for progress updates or to apply for a new connection.

* Examples of where additional meters may be required: an apartment building with retail shops below, a shopping centre, a business centre with several offices.
The buttons below take you to our development portal where you can apply for a commercial connection or view your dashboard.


When does billing start?
Water and wastewater: We start charging from the time we install the meter. This includes the monthly fixed charge as well as any consumption.
Water only: We start charging from the time we install the meter. This includes the monthly fixed charge as well as any consumption.
Wastewater only: We start charging from the date we approve your application. This includes the monthly fixed charge as well as any consumption.
Helpful tip: If your projected build finish date is a while away, you may want to consider installing the asset closer to your finish date, that way you will delay monthly charges.
