In April 2017, the commercial water supply market underwent a fundamental change in order to make the sector more competitive.
Since then, all businesses, regardless of size, can now choose their water and wastewater supplier – similar to the way you choose your energy or telecoms supplier.

- Who is your current business water retailer?
- How Castle Water excels as a business water retailer
A competitive market means you can switch your business water supplier at any time, whether you want to get a better deal, experience better customer service, or change to a supplier with brand values similar to your own.
Business water wholesaler vs business water retailer
It’s important to clarify the difference between your business water wholesaler and your business water retailer. Castle Water is a business water retailer, which means that we will deal with your account, billing, and meter readings. As a retailer, we negotiate with water wholesalers to get the best price so we can forward the savings to you.
A business water wholesaler is the company that owns the water and wastewater network supplying your business premises, including your water meter if there is one. While Castle Water is the company you will be dealing with, there may be occasions when the wholesaler will need to carry out work on your premises or investigate problems, but we will act as the liaison between you and the wholesaler.
The only time you need to contact your wholesaler directly is in an emergency outside office hours, such as a problem with the quality of your water, an interruption to the supply, or sewer flooding. Click here for a list of emergency numbers for all UK water wholesalers.
