First, locate and shut off your main water supply if you’re dealing with a burst pipe or major leak to minimize water damage. The main shut-off valve is typically located where the water line enters your home, often near the water meter or in the basement. If it’s a gas line emergency, leave the property immediately and call 911 before calling us. For other emergencies, try to contain any water with towels or buckets if possible, and move valuable items away from the affected area. Don’t attempt DIY repairs on emergency situations – you could make the problem worse or create safety hazards.
