Apply for a residential connection

Connect your residential home to our water and wastewater networks.

If you’re planning to build

If you’re a homeowner planning to build a new home, we recommend you seek water and wastewater advice from a drain layer, architect, engineer, or relevant qualified person before you make any decisions.

They’ll know the requirements and standards you must comply with for a successful residential connection application. If you are applying for building consent, Auckland Council might consult us.

The Auckland Council website has all you need to know about attaining building consent.

Apply for a residential connection

You have three different application options:

  • water and wastewater (connecting to both networks)
  • water only (installing a new or additional meter)
  • wastewater only

Important information:

  • for water and wastewater or water only, we start charging as soon as we install the meter
  • for wastewater only, we start charging from the date we approve your application
