Gas Leak Repair Services in Cincinnati, Dayton, & Northern Kentucky
Gas Leak Repair
Do you feel nauseated and dizzy, or smell rotten eggs? These are common signs of a gas leak. A gas leak is a serious safety hazard and should be addressed the second it is detected.
If you can, extinguish any ignition sources, such as candles. Donโt turn off or on any electrical switches or use your cell phone in the house; leave them as they are.
Ideally, windows and doors should be opened to let the gas escape, but donโt take time to fiddle with stubborn windows; leave the door open and get moving.
Evacuate the building with your family and pets, get to a safe distance, and call 9-1-1 to alert them of the emergency and ask your gas company to shut off the gas.

Apollo Homeโs Gas Leak Repair Process
Our plumbers follow a safety protocol for repairing gas leaks. Here is our gas leak repair process in brief:
- Ensure Gas Is Off: First, we must ensure the gas is off, either by calling the gas company or finding the shut-off valve.
Open Up the House: While wearing protective gear, weโll want to ventilate the house by opening the windows and doors. - Find the Leak: Next, we must find where the leak occurred. Leaks often happen at joints or may have external damage to indicate the source. Our plumbers have professional equipment to help them locate all leaks.
- Determine the Cause: Was the pipe too thin to handle the pressure? Was the pipe corroded or damaged externally? Weโll find the root cause and take measures to ensure it doesnโt happen again.
- Remove Extra Pressure or Gas: We then relieve the gas pressure in the lines so we can safely repair them.
- Seal Leaks or Replace Components: Our plumbers then seal the leaks or replace any faulty components that are no longer safe to use. Weโll secure the lines to help prevent future damage.
- Test the Lines: The final, most important step is to test the gas lines and ensure there arenโt any leaks. Our special equipment helps us measure and test for even tiny leaks.
