If there is water still leaking, turn off the service valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main water valve for your property. If you are unable to locate the tap to turn off, then you may want to try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the system and reduce the leak.
Once that’s sorted, give our plumber a ring, no matter what the day or time is. We’ll be with you shortly to resolve the problem.
