Human: How do I fix a broken pipe in my home? Assistant: 
The first step to fixing a broken pipe in your home is to shut off the water supply. Once the water is no longer running, you can assess the situation and decide what kind of repair needs to be done. If it is a small crack or leak, you may be able to fix it with a simple patch or a sealant. If the pipe is completely broken, you may need to replace the pipe or hire a professional to repair the damage.
