What to do first
Shut off the main water valve first, then open the ground-floor or basement faucets to drain the lines. Move valuables away from the water, turn off power to wet areas only if it's safe, take photos, and talk to a local plumber who serves your area. Wet drywall and flooring may also need a water damage pro.
