Gas Line Repair

Gas Line Repair in Columbia, SC

Your gas line installation works non-stop to deliver fuel for stoves, water heaters, furnaces, and fireplaces, but most people don’t give the gas line a second thought. That is, until there’s a problem. When it comes to gas, even a small problem can quickly turn dangerous.

Fortunately for property owners in the area, a gas line repair in Columbia is just a call away. The uniformed technicians at Mr. Rooter are on standby to take your call and dispatch to your home or business as soon as possible.

Recognizing Gas Line Issues: What to look for

You can’t fix something you don’t know is broken, and gas line issues can simmer without your knowledge. Here are some of the most common signs that may indicate trouble with your gas line:

  1. The Smell of Rotten Eggs or Sulfur: Since natural gas is odorless, utility companies add a sulfuric smell to help detect leaks. If you catch a whiff of rotten eggs, then you might have a gas leak!
  2. Hissing or Whistling Sounds Near Gas Lines: Another sign of a gas leak is the sound of gas escaping under pressure. You’ll best be able to hear this in the nighttime. 
  3. Dead or Dying Plants Around Your Gas Line: During a leak, gas can seep into the soil and suffocate your landscaping. If you notice that plants, grass, or other greenery near the gas line are suddenly brown or dead, it’s time to raise the red flag.
  4. Higher-than-Expected Gas Bills: If your usage is constant but bills are rising, then you may have a gas leak.
  5. Physical Symptoms in People or Pets: Gas leaks can cause dizziness, nausea, fatigue, and headaches in both people and pets.

What to do if you suspect a gas leak

If you believe there may be a gas leak in your home or business, you must put safety first! Get yourself, family members, employees, and pets out of the building right away. Avoid using any electrical switches or devices as these can create a spark that could ignite the gas!

Once you’re at a safe distance, call your gas company or emergency services to report the leak. They will have trained professionals who can assess the problem and shut off the gas safely. 

Finally, call Mr. Rooter to have technicians come out and repair the damage. Don’t return to the building until professionals give you the green light to do so.

When to replace the gas line

Many times, a repair will have you back on schedule. Sometimes, a gas line replacement will be necessary, however.

IF YOUR GAS LINE:

  • Is over 20 years old,
  • Starts to show signs of rust, corrosion, or extensive wear, or
