What to Do if You Discover a Leak in Your Home
When a leak is discovered, the first course of action is to turn off the emergency shut-off valve to stop the flow of water from the main supply line. This valve is typically located inside a house near where the main water line enters the home. The shut-off valve will either be a gate valve (looks like a lever) or a ball valve (has a round handle).
In either case, the valve should be moved to the off position before dealing further with the leak. The next step is to soak up any water that has pooled on floors or other accessible areas to prevent property damage. Finally, call a plumber in San Fransisco who offers same-day leak detection and repair services.
