Gas Leak FAQs
What does a gas leak smell like?
Utilities add a sulfur or 'rotten egg' odorant to natural gas so leaks are noticeable. Any persistent gas smell should be taken seriously.
What should I do first if I smell gas?
Leave immediately, avoid anything that could create a spark (light switches, appliances, phones indoors), and call 911 or your gas utility from outside before arranging service.
Can you repair the line once the leak is found?
We help identify the source and recommend the appropriate repair to restore safety.
