Establishing water service is easy!
Come down in person and a Customer Service Representative will be happy to walk you through the process to establish a new account. Or you can just email your information to cwdcd@comptoncity.org. Once your account is setup, we will email you your account information and you will need to go online to pay the prepayment. Once our Customer Service staff has verified payment then your water service will be turned on. Our online bill pay website accepts Checks, Debit (Visa or MasterCard), and Credit Card (MasterCard only) so you can set up your account right away.
Operating Hours: 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Mon-Thurs. City Hall is closed every Friday.
