Read all bills and agreements that you have with your water and sewer company. Most likely there is language in these documents discussing fees, penalties and reconnection costs if service is disconnected.I have seen language regarding these fees in the past on utility bills. If there is language on documents you have received from your water and sewer company about the fees that you are unhappy about, the fees to reconnect services due to a shut off of services can be charged to you and the charge would appear to be a valid and enforceable.Unfortunately, you most likely have no other water and sewer company to use other than the one who shut off your services.
