Do this right now

While you call or text us, shut off the water, keep water away from electricity, and stop using drains if sewage is backing up.

  1. Shut off the main water valve.

    It's usually where the water line enters the house: in a basement or utility room, near the water heater, in the garage, or in a closet on the front wall. Turn a round handle clockwise until it stops, or turn a lever handle a quarter turn so it sits across the pipe.

  2. For one fixture, use its own valve.

    Toilets and sinks have a small shut-off valve on the wall behind or under them. Turn it clockwise.

  3. Keep electricity and water apart.

    If water is near outlets, cords or the electrical panel, stay out of the water and turn off power to that area only if you can do it safely from a dry spot.

  4. Sewage backing up? Stop all water use.

    No flushing, showers, laundry or dishwasher. Every drain you use adds to the backup.

  5. Gas smell? Leave first.

    Get everyone out, then call your gas company from outside. Call us after.

  6. Move what you can.

    Lift rugs, electronics and boxes off wet floors, and start soaking up standing water.

My toilet is overflowing and won't stop. What do I do?

Turn the small valve on the wall behind the toilet clockwise to stop the water. If it won't turn, lift the tank lid and push the float up to stop the fill. If the toilet keeps backing up, or other drains are backing up too, call or text (385) 775-3989, since that can mean a main line clog.
