Water Issues

Water Issues

The Northwest Harris County Municipal Utility District 5 (NWHCMUD5) provides water service to Wildwood at Oakcrest. Sometimes residents experience a brownish color and a funny smell to their water.

The only way for NWHCMUD5 to address the situation is for each homeowner to contact NWHCMUD5, provide their home address, and have NWHCMUD5 investigate. Residents can contact NWHCMUD5 direct 281-290-6500 or 281-290-6503, toll free at 855-290-MDS1 or visit mdswater.com to report issues.
