Emergency Self-Triage Protocol

How to Shut Off Your Water in a Plumbing Emergency

Before our emergency plumbing truck arrives, stopping the water immediately prevents thousands of dollars in drywall, hardwood, and flooring damage. Select your valve location below:

Primary House Valve

Main Whole-House Water Shut-Off Valve

📍 Typical Location: Front exterior wall near hose bib, garage wall, or basement/crawlspace entry
  • 1 Identify Valve Type: If it's a lever-style ball valve, turn it 90 degrees so the handle is perpendicular to the pipe. If it's a round wheel gate valve, turn it clockwise (“righty-tighty”) until fully seated.
  • 2 Relieve Pressure: Go outside and open the lowest hose bib faucet to drain remaining water out of the house pipes rather than through your leak.
  • 3 Call Dispatch: Once water pressure is stopped, call our 24/7 dispatch desk for licensed emergency repair.

⚠️ Valve frozen, corroded, or won't turn? Do not force it — call our on-duty dispatcher.

Emergency Dispatch: (818) 238-9116
Municipal Curb Stop

Street Curb Stop / Water Meter Box

📍 Typical Location: Ground concrete box near the sidewalk or front property line curb
  • 1 Open the Lid: Pry off the concrete or cast-iron meter lid using a screwdriver or curb key. Watch out for dirt, spiders, or standing water.
  • 2 Turn the Brass Valve: Locate the street-side brass valve with a raised brass bar. Using a water meter key or crescent wrench, turn the brass bar 90 degrees until the padlock holes align.
  • 3 Confirm Meter Stops: The small red/blue flow dial on the meter face should stop spinning entirely.

🚨 Need an emergency curb key or have a broken meter valve? We carry municipal keys on every van.

Call (818) 238-9116
Water Heater Isolation

Water Heater Cold Water Shut-Off

📍 Typical Location: Directly above the top of your tank or tankless water heater on the cold water pipe
  • 1 Turn Cold Inlet Valve: Turn the valve handle above the water heater clockwise (or 90° for lever ball valves) to stop water feeding into the tank.
  • 2 Keep Cold Water Running in House: This isolates hot water leaks (including hot slab leaks) while allowing you to keep running cold water in the rest of your home!
  • 3 Turn Off Gas / Power: Switch the gas thermostat to “OFF” or flip the dedicated electrical breaker to prevent the empty heating tank from dry firing.

🔥 Tank leaking from bottom or smelling gas? Call our 24/7 emergency water heater line immediately.

Call (818) 238-9116
Individual Fixture Valve

Fixture Angle Stop Shut-Off

📍 Typical Location: Beneath kitchen & bathroom sinks or behind the toilet tank near the floor
  • 1 Locate Oval Handle: Look for the small oval chrome or brass handle on the flexible supply line under the sink or behind the toilet.
  • 2 Turn Clockwise: Turn the knob gently clockwise until hand-tight. If it hasn't been turned in years and feels stuck, do not twist with pliers as old brass stems can snap.
  • 3 Test Fixture: Open the faucet or flush the toilet to confirm water flow has stopped completely.

🚽 Angle stop leaking from stem or frozen solid? We replace faulty valves with premium 1/4-turn ball stops.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common questions about our plumbing services, rates, and coverage across Los Angeles.

How much do plumbing services and plumbers cost in Los Angeles?

Plumber rates and plumbing services in Los Angeles typically range from $95 to $350 for standard drain cleaning, toilet repairs, and fixture fixes, and $1,800 to $4,500+ for major projects such as water heater replacements, sub-slab leak reroutes, or trenchless sewer relining. Plumbing prices vary depending on whether the job is a straightforward repair or requires specialized hydro jetting or diagnostic camera equipment. At Aquavo Plumbing, our plumbing company provides guaranteed upfront written quotes before any work begins, with zero hidden travel charges or overtime fees on nights, weekends, and holidays.

How fast can an emergency plumber arrive for urgent plumbing repairs?

Our mobile emergency plumber vans are stationed throughout the San Fernando Valley, Westside, and Central Los Angeles, maintaining average response times between 30 and 45 minutes for urgent emergency plumbing calls. We answer 24/7/365 with live dispatchers to isolate leaks and begin immediate plumbing repairs.

Do you provide both commercial plumbing and residential plumbing services?

Yes. As full-service plumbing contractors, we handle both residential plumbing for single-family homes and HOAs, as well as commercial plumber solutions for restaurants (grease trap lines & hydro jetting), retail centers, office buildings, and multi-unit apartment complexes throughout Los Angeles County.

Yes. Every technician is licensed under California CSLB C-36 Plumbing License #1049281, fully bonded, and backed by comprehensive commercial general liability and workers' compensation insurance.
