Should I shut off my water during a leak?
Yes — in almost every leak scenario, shutting off the water is the right first move.
Find the main shutoff
Most Chula Vista homes have a shutoff valve where the main supply enters the home, often near the front of the house or in the garage. The street-side meter valve is a backup.
Isolate the fixture if possible
Toilets, sinks, and water heaters usually have their own local shutoff valves. Closing the local valve avoids killing water to the whole house.
