The visible puddle may show only part of the wet area because ceiling drywall, joist insulation, floor underlayment, and paint hold hidden moisture.

If a supply valve is safe to reach, closing it limits fresh water. The plumber handles the faulty fitting and the cleanup crew handles extraction and structural drying.
