The Metro Nashville department for water, sewer and stormwater services, including stormwater fee reviews and service requests.
Metro Water Services is the Metro Nashville and Davidson County department that provides water services, and its website covers bill payment, emergencies, stormwater fee reviews, service requests and an outage map. Utilities and stormwater are part of almost every project, from a new home to a parking lot, and owners in Nashville often deal with this department during design and permitting.
We are a private firm and are not part of Metro government. We plan water and sewer connections, review stormwater needs and coordinate with civil engineers who prepare detailed designs and calculations. Early conversations about capacity, connections and drainage help prevent surprises, and we show these items clearly on site plans for permit review.
