Looking after friends house and discovered water bill which expired on the 13th of this month, how long have you got to pay before they disconnect?

Can't say but I would say you have a few weeks to pay. 

The bill was issued on the 15/6/60, I'll go on Mon to pay.

They will post a notice on your house gate if the water bill is overdue for payment warning you that the water will be disconnected if not paid by a certain date, or they did 5 years ago

Happened to a previous neighbor of ours nearly every month

If you do not pay the bill they remove your water meter and will replace it for a fee after the water bill is paid

Yea thought that, I'll pay on Mon.

Bill not paid 15/6/. Then next bill about 4 weeks later. On this bill 15/7/ they will state then the new max date about 7 days. Still not pay 1 week later they will take your meter 30/07/.

So easy going you have a lot more time.

They will replace it free when you pay all bills in 1 week after they removed the meter and deposit (200 thb) for the next month.

You are probably right i have never not paid my bills, i was told 200 baht to re install the meter

200 baht deposit or 200 baht installation fee same same to me

Not excately same because they reduce the next bill with the given deposit. So it is more like a advanced payment.

 

Traveling a lot and 3 houses i sometimes forget it 555 but never mind it is easy to fix here in Thailand. For things like this i love to stay here. Easy going.

Agree again! I've never have had a water bill either! Just the electric bill and having to replace the pump every 8 years or so.  Never a garbage bill either, landlord pays the local rate for his entire property. One bin.

The best way to find that out is not to pay it at all and see when your friend's house water is cut off. Then you will know 100% for sure. There's no better way

No, don't do that! If you do that then you won't know when they will cut off the water!!
