It would be a long, out-of-the-way run to the water heater on the far side of the garage, or the sink on the back wall, but it's a straight shot to the kitchen. If they were going to put in a valve, you'd think they would do it right where the main crosses the garage wall.
I don't think its worth breaking out the edge of the slab to install one. That's why I was wondering if anyone had installed one of those leak-detecting shutoff valves. I could put that in the ground outside.

Most of villas up north have shutoff valves outside of the garage in the ground. Otherwise, it's in the wall of the garage (probably an outside wall).
