In any water emergency situation, like a leak or burst pipe, you should first turn off water supply at the valve, or the main valve at the meter, then call a plumbing professional unless you have the skills to fix the situation on your own. You should know where your shut off valves are located and if they are working properly. Depending on the severity of the situation you may even need to call your homeowners insurance.
