Causes for Gas Line Failure

Age is a common gas line failure we have noticed in our plumbing company. Gas lines can also fail due to improper installation, lack of regular maintenance and upkeep, or improper use of gas-based appliances. Exposure to moisture is another common factor contributing to gas line failure since this is what leads to rust and corrosion.

Signs You Need Gas Line Repair or Replacement

Smelling gas is one of the telltale signs of gas line issues. Other signs to look for include:

  • Noticeable rust around connections
  • Dead plants around outdoor gas lines
  • Physical damage to the line
  • Gas detectors going off frequently

How Does Gas Line Repair Work?

Gas line repair starts with a call to a plumber in Columbia, SC, and nearby areas. We perform an initial inspection first to determine the source of the problem. In some instances, we may only need to replace connections or valves. Other times, however, it may be necessary to replace the entire line - or sections of the affected line. It's also sometimes possible to make strategic repairs to certain parts of the gas line.

What to Do in Case of a Gas Leak

Recognizing a gas leak may be difficult. Natural gas is scentless, so a rotten egg scent is usually added to it to make it more detectable. If you believe that you smell a natural gas leak in your home, take the following steps before calling our professionals:

  • Do not use your cell phone until you are a safe distance from your home.
  • Shut off all gas valves.
  • Do not attempt to locate the leak.
  • Do not turn any electrical appliances on or off.
  • Do not smoke or use any open flames.
  • Get a safe distance from the house, then call 911 and the utility company.

Our plumbers in Columbia, SC will be able to safely and thoroughly repair any gas line leaks.
