What it usually is
A drip at a fitting or the relief valve can sometimes be repaired. Water coming from the bottom of the tank usually means the tank itself has failed and needs replacing.
What to do first
Shut off the cold water supply to the tank. For electric units, switch off the breaker; for gas, turn the gas valve to off. Send a photo of the tank and its label.

- Water heater install, 40–50 gal tank (your unit): $500 labor
