What to do right now in Taylor

Take these four steps while you wait for the plumber to arrive. They cut damage by an order of magnitude.

  1. 01

    Shut off main water valve

    Locate the valve near your water meter or where the main line enters your home. Turn clockwise to stop water flow.

  2. 02

    Turn off water heater

    If you have a gas heater, set the thermostat to 'pilot' or 'off'. For electric, flip the breaker. This prevents damage if the tank drains.

  3. 03

    Take photos for insurance

    Document the damage with clear photos and videos. This speeds up your claim process.

  4. 04

    Move valuables to safety

    Relocate electronics, documents, and furniture away from the leak area to prevent further loss.
