What to Do Right Now (Shutoff + Safety)

_

These steps can help reduce damage before a plumber arrives.

1) Shut off the main water valve

If water is actively flowing and you can’t stop it at the fixture, shut off your main water supply. In many homes, the main shutoff is located:

  • near where the water line enters the home (basement/crawlspace/utility room), or
  • near an exterior wall close to the water meter

Turn the valve clockwise (right) to close it. If you can’t locate it quickly, focus on safety and call for guidance.

2) Turn off water to the fixture

For sinks and toilets, look for the small shutoff valve near the fixture and turn it clockwise to stop the flow.

3) Electrical safety around water

If water is near outlets, appliances, or the electrical panel:

  • don’t touch wet outlets or devices
  • don’t step into standing water while handling electrical components
    If you suspect an electrical hazard, prioritize safety and call for help.

4) If there’s a sewage backup

Avoid contact with contaminated water and keep children and pets away from the area. Stop using sinks, showers, and toilets until the issue is assessed.
