# What To Do in a Pluming Emergency

Plumbing emergencies can cause serious water damage in minutes. Acting fast can limit destruction and save money on repairs.

---

#### Immediate Steps to Take

- **Shut Off the Main Water Valve:** Know where it is and act quickly to stop water flow.
- **Cut the Power:** If water is near outlets, turn off electricity at the breaker box.
- **Move Valuables to Safety:** Protect furniture, electronics, and personal belongings.
- **Contain the Water:** Use towels, buckets, or mops to limit spread if it’s safe to do so.
- **Call the Experts:** Contact **Shamrock Restoration** for 24/7 emergency plumbing and water damage response.

Because **Shamrock** handles both plumbing and restoration, you avoid juggling multiple vendors—we stop the leak, fix the problem, and restore your property quickly and efficiently.
