What to Do Before the Plumber Arrives
A few immediate steps can reduce damage while you wait for us:
Locate and Shut Off Your Main Water Valve
If you have an active leak or burst pipe, shutting off the main water supply is the single most effective step you can take to limit damage. The main shutoff is typically near the water meter, in the crawlspace, or in a utility area of the home. Turn it clockwise until it stops.
Protect Your Space and Your Belongings
Move valuables and electronics away from the affected area if it’s safe to do so. Set out towels or buckets to contain standing water and reduce the chance of it spreading to adjacent areas. Disconnect or turn off electrical devices near the water source.
Stop Using Affected Plumbing Fixtures
If you’re dealing with a sewage backup or drain issue, avoid using any plumbing fixtures in the home until we arrive. Using additional fixtures can make the situation significantly worse.
Plumbing Problems You Can Prevent With Regular Maintenance
Not all emergencies are avoidable, but many are. A few practical habits reduce your risk significantly:
- Schedule periodic plumbing inspections to catch deteriorating pipes, joints, and fixtures before they fail
- Know where your main shutoff valve is and confirm it operates properly, especially important for vacation properties
- Avoid putting grease, food scraps, or non-flushable items down drains and toilets
- Insulate exposed pipes in unheated spaces before cold weather arrives
- Have your water heater inspected periodically, especially as it gets older
