Gas Lines Repair and Replacement

Always call your local gas company or a professional, licensed plumber (such as Schaal Plumbing, Heating & Cooling) if you suspect a gas leak.

Natural gas is odorless. Georgia Power or your other local gas company adds a strong-smelling, sulfuric odor to natural gas to help residents identify gas leaks when they occur. If you notice this odor, your safety — and the safety of your family — are the paramount concern. Leave the building immediately and notify the gas company of a potential leak.

As with the water lines running from your water meter to your house, the gas lines that run from the gas meter into your home are your responsibility. If there are any problems with those gas lines, they could be the result of broken pipes. Regardless of the reason, the homeowner is fully liable for all repairs and maintenance of gas lines that run from the meter to the home.

Many factors can result in gas leaks or other problems with your gas lines, including poor installation, age, and pressure, or inadequately durable pipe.
