Here are steps to take in the event of a plumbing problem:

1. Shut off the water – Cut off the water supply to prevent greater damage. Even a minor leak can result in thousands of dollars worth of repairs to the property. For a leaking faucet or toilet, utilize the valve to stop the flow of water. You can also turn off the water supply to the whole home. It’s a good idea to know the location of the shutoff valve.
2. Check the damage – The next step is to find the origin of the problem. Standing water, dripping sounds, warped flooring, mold growth, bubbling paint and musty smells can lead you to the source.
3. Possibly turn off the water heater – If you are unable to determine the source or severity of the concern, turning off the water heater protects the appliance from damage. If the water is shut off and the heater is still running, water heaters can overheat and burst. For gas-fueled water heaters, turn off the gas first.
4. Drain pipes – Once you’ve shut off the water and water heater, empty any remaining water from the pipes by opening drains and spigots. Don’t overlook outdoor hoses and faucets.
5. Contact the water company – Problems with the sewer main, a blocked sewer or the main water line might not be your responsibility. Call the water company to determine whether or not they will send a licensed plumber to evaluate the malfunction.
