Market figures, not a quote.
In a detached house, the main shut-off valve is usually in the basement or crawl space where the water line comes through the foundation, often near the water heater or laundry hookups.
The property owner is responsible for the service line from the water meter into the house; the Baltimore City Department of Public Works maintains the outdoor lines up to and including the meter. Report water running in the street, a leaking hydrant or a main break to Baltimore City 311 (call 311 or use the 311 app). A leak between the meter and your foundation, or anywhere inside, is a job for a plumber.
