First, locate your main water shut-off valve and turn it off if water is actively flooding your property. Most Burlingame homes have the shut-off near the street or where the main line enters your house. Move valuable items away from standing water and take photos for insurance purposes if possible. Don’t attempt to fix gas leaks yourself – evacuate and call the gas company immediately. For sewer backups, avoid using any drains or toilets until we arrive. Our dispatch team will give you specific instructions based on your particular emergency when you call.
