What do you do when a plumbing emergency hits? The very first thing is to make sure it's safe, and not getting even worse. Electricity and water don't combine safely, so if you need to, turn the electricity off on the breaker box.
A lot of appliances and fixtures have service valves that you can turn off. For example, the toilet will have a valve below or beside the cistern. If you can’t find a tap, or that does not stop the leak, then turn off the mains shutoff valve to stop all water to the home.
Once you have stopped the diaster from getting worse, give our emergency plumber a call, at any time of the day or night. They will be there rapidly to resolve the issue.
While you are waiting, clear away any significant things close to the leak, and clean up any water or position a bucket to catch the drips. If you turned the mains water off, switch off the hot water heating as well.
The primary isolating valve will normally be on the border of your property close to the road. It is typically set into the ground underneath a blue or black plastic cover.
Remember, a lot of appliances and fixtures have their own isolating valves as well.
