How do I know if my gas line is leaking?
The most common sign is a rotten egg smell caused by added mercaptan. You may also hear hissing sounds or notice dead vegetation above the line. If in doubt — evacuate and call 911 before contacting PD Plumbing.
Should I try to fix a gas leak myself?
Never. Gas lines are dangerous and regulated. Any leak or suspected issue must be handled by a licensed, bonded professional like PD Plumbing. Your safety depends on it.
Can I prevent gas line leaks?
Yes — regular inspections, replacing aging lines, and avoiding DIY damage during yard work can reduce risk. PD Plumbing offers annual checkups to keep your system secure.
