Smell Gas or Suspect an Active Gas Leak?
Leave the building or affected area immediately. Do not use electrical switches, appliances, phones, or anything that could create a spark while inside or near the suspected leak. Do not attempt to locate or repair the leak yourself. From a safe location, call your gas utility's emergency number or 911. Do not return until emergency responders or the gas utility confirm it is safe.
Understanding Your Gas Piping System
Why Professional Gas Line Repair Matters
Gas piping systems are designed to distribute fuel from the utility connection or other approved source to compatible appliances throughout a property.
Gas lines may be installed inside buildings, beneath floors, or underground, depending on the property's layout and system design. Connections and materials must be suitable for the installation.
Over time, pipes and connections can experience corrosion, physical damage, deterioration, or issues related to shifting surrounding materials.
Improperly installed or damaged gas piping can create serious fire and explosion hazards. For this reason, gas line repairs require appropriate testing, correct materials, and compliance with applicable codes.
A qualified assessment helps determine whether a limited repair, replacement of a pipe section, or a larger gas piping upgrade is necessary.

Recognize Gas Piping Problems
Signs Your Gas Lines May Need Professional Attention
Some gas piping problems are discovered during scheduled appliance work or plumbing inspections. Others become apparent when equipment stops operating correctly or visible piping shows signs of damage.
Corrosion, loose or damaged components, and recent excavation near underground piping can all warrant professional evaluation.
Gas odor, hissing near piping, or a damaged gas line may indicate a serious hazard. Do not approach the suspected source to investigate it.
If you suspect gas is escaping, evacuate first and contact your gas utility or 911 from a safe location. Routine repair scheduling should occur only after the immediate danger has been addressed.
