Gas Line Repair — Columbus, OH
About a third of gas line repair calls in Columbus turn out to be something the homeowner could fix in 10 minutes with a $12 part. We'll tell you which third. We carry our own insurance, pull our own permits, and service everything we install. Same shop, all the way through.
What you're paying for
Gas line work is regulated. We pull the permit, do the work, and coordinate the utility inspection before the line goes back into service.
Most-common calls: gas-leak detection after the homeowner smells gas, shut-off valve replacement on a 30+ year old appliance line, and new appliance hookups (range, dryer, water heater, fireplace).
If you smell gas, leave the building, call your gas utility's emergency line first (it's free), and call us second. Don't switch lights on or off, don't use phones inside the building. The utility shuts the meter and confirms the leak is on the customer side. Then we come in, find it, and repair.
Material: black iron is still the standard for hard pipe. Yellow CSST is the flexible alternative — easier to install, but needs proper bonding to prevent lightning strike issues. We do both.
