Confirm the form, filing deadline, eligible repairs, calculation method, and payment expectation during review.
Provider-specific findings
Relief research for this provider
The notes below may document a route, rule, or explicit public-information limit. General preparation steps are not represented as utility policy.
- Emergency reporting route
- The reviewed High Point public pages direct utility service problems to Customer Service at (336) 883-3111; the public pages do not clearly publish a separate 24/7 water-emergency number. For a suspected main break or water-quality emergency, call that number and follow the City's current after-hours instructions.
- Leak-adjustment policy
- High Point offers a Concealed Leak Adjustment Request and a Concealed Leak Refund form. Customers must repair a qualifying concealed leak and submit the form, and the City notes that some requests require supporting documentation and that submission does not guarantee approval. Pool top-off and pool-repair forms provide separate sewer or consumption adjustment paths; the reviewed summary page does not expose the exact mathematical cap, number of uses, or receipt list.
- Utility assistance program
- The City provides a Guarantee for Applicant's Utility Bill form and directs customers to utility financial-assistance resources, but the reviewed pages do not state a universal 2026 dollar cap or senior/disabled discount for water. Customers should call (336) 883-3111 or use the City financial-assistance page for current eligibility and program limits.
- State and federal aid connection
- High Point directs customers who cannot afford utility bills to its Utility Financial Assistance resource page. The reviewed pages do not identify a current LIHWAP application URL or fixed nonprofit award; applicants should use the City referral page and ask whether Guilford County or North Carolina assistance is currently accepting water-arrears applications.
