First steps after a leak in Sharon
Sharon is a town of owners, with 13% of homes rented, so the person who finds the leak can usually act on it right away. Close the main shutoff first, often in the basement where the line comes in. NOAA climate normals show 127 nights a year at or below 32 degrees and 23 days that stay below freezing, so a split pipe in an exterior wall is a likely source in winter. Then turn off breakers to wet rooms and to the basement if water is near the panel. Photograph the pipe, the wet areas and every damaged item. Move boxes, rugs and electronics out of the water. Sharon is served with the Taunton area, so burst pipe cleanup is one call away, 24/7.
