Discovering an active water leak emerging from inside a finished wall requires immediate emergency action to limit structural destruction. First, shut off your main indoor water supply valve instantly to stop pressurized flow, and turn off electrical breakers if water is near wall outlets. Place towels and buckets to catch pooling water, and carefully cut a small inspection hole in the drywall to locate the source.
