- Keep people and pets out from under the stained or bulging ceiling
- Close the washer valves, or the main valve if water is still coming
- Switch off power to the lower room at the panel, from dry ground
- Set a bucket under any drip, but leave a bulge alone
- Move furniture and electronics away and photograph the damage

A washer leak may hit a heated closet in January or a muggy basement in July. The setup and the run time follow the season.
