Discovering a leaking water pipe hidden inside a ceiling 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 circuit breakers supplying power to the room to prevent electrocution hazards. Place large buckets and towels beneath the drip, and carefully poke a small hole in any sagging drywall bulge to release trapped water. Contact an emergency licensed plumber and professional water damage restoration company. Verification: Ensure the area is safe from electrical hazards before beginning cleanup.
