Tip 1: turn off the street water
Notes:
- Plumbers In The CBD will always use a water key to turn off the water at the street level first before tackling any plumbing issues.
- You can get a special water key – which is a rod – that you need to turn the valve up by the road.
- Find the valve, use the water key to turn it off, and wait for the water to stop flowing in the house.
- Turn on a shower or tub to let the water drain in the house; drain the lowest faucet outlet in the home.

This though is really hard, it will take a lot of youtube videos, practice and your guide for me to be able to pull it off.
