Gas Leak Repair & Replacement

IMPORTANT! In the event of a gas leak, the most important thing to do is to leave the property immediately. Avoid turning on any electronic devices or anything that could create a spark. Do not start your car if it is near the house. Do not use a lighter or create any open flame. Do not use any electronic devices hooked up to switches and outlets, such as lights or appliances.

How To Tell If There Is A Gas Leak

Smell rotten eggs? The first and most obvious sign you have a gas leak is a strong rotten egg smell. This could happen at connections to gas-powered appliances that have become damaged, at gas fireplaces, near gas water heaters or outside the home.

Hear hissing sounds? Hissing or whistling sounds from your gas line also point to a possible leak.

Notice dead vegetation in your yard? If you notice a patch of dead vegetation in your yard, it could be the result of a damaged gas line leaking onto the surface and affecting your vegetation. Other factors contributing to damaged gas lines include pipes becoming exposed after extreme weather, ground shifting, or normal wear and tear.

Legacy Plumbing can perform a gas static test on the whole system by adding a pressure gauge to the line and isolating the system to determine if there are any leaks. If you think you have a leak but aren’t sure, we can give you peace of mind.

Gas Leak Repair

Once we’ve located the leak(s) and have your approval for the repair, the gas leak will be repaired by our qualified, licensed technicians. Most likely, a city permit will be required for gas repair work. Legacy Plumbing will take care of all the permitting requirements with the city so you don’t have to. In some cities, the entire gas system must pass a gas pressure test before the inspection will pass. In any case, Legacy Plumbing can perform the work necessary to get your gas turned back on as quickly as possible.
