Gas Leak Repair in Baytown
If you smell gas, leave the house first. Call your gas company from outside, and do not use switches or anything with a flame.
Once the gas is off and the house is safe, we find the leak and repair the line. Gas piping in Texas is plumbing work, and it takes a license.
Signs of a Gas Line Problem
A rotten egg smell indoors or outside
A hissing sound near a gas line or appliance
Dead grass or plants over a buried line
A gas bill that climbs without a reason
Pilot lights that keep going out
The gas company shut off your service
How We Find and Fix a Gas Leak
Pressure Test the System
We put the gas piping under test pressure and watch the gauge. A drop means there is a leak.
Find the Leak
We isolate sections of the line and check the joints and fittings until we find it.
Repair the Line
We replace the leaking fitting or section of pipe with new material.
Test Again
The repaired system has to hold pressure before gas goes back on.
Getting Your Gas Turned Back On
When the gas company shuts off a meter for a leak, it usually wants the line repaired and tested before it restores service.
We make the repair and run the pressure test. Then you have what you need to ask for the gas to be turned back on.

Gas Line Repair Questions
Leave the house right away. Do not flip switches or light anything. Call your gas company from outside, then call a licensed plumber for the repair.
The gas company handles the meter and the line up to it. The piping from the meter into the house is the owner's, and a licensed plumber repairs it.
The gas piping is filled with air at a set pressure and watched on a gauge. If the pressure holds, the system is tight. If it drops, there is a leak.
Yes. We locate the leak, dig to the line and repair or replace the damaged section.
