Find Your Emergency Shut Off

Staff will respond to calls as soon as possible but you may be able to help.  If you know where your water shut-off is located, please go ahead and shut off you water during an active leak or broken line.  If you don’t know where your shut off is located, here are a few things to look for:

  • You may have a universal shut-off for both systems in your garage, laundry room, or even a closet.   
  • You may have a water shut-off in your flower beds.  It would have a green plastic cover over it.
  • The water meter may be accessed if the cover is open.  There is a valve that may be turned off by using an adjustable wrench and by turning it one way or another.  

Here are a couple of helpful videos that may better illustrate options for shutting off the water.

Have the professional who repairs your leak/broken pipe turn the water back on for you.
