We’ve been protecting Rio Linda families since 2012. Our owner, Chris Graubart, brings over 17 years of plumbing experience to every gas leak emergency in your neighborhood.
We understand Rio Linda’s housing—many homes built in the 1970s have aging gas systems that need expert care. That’s why we’ve made gas leak detection and repair one of our specialties. Every technician is background-checked, drug-tested, and trained in the latest gas safety protocols.
When you call us, you’re getting neighbors who understand what’s at stake. Your family’s safety isn’t something we take lightly.
First, we arrive quickly—usually within the hour for gas emergencies in Rio Linda. Our technician uses specialized leak detection equipment to pinpoint exactly where the problem is, whether it’s underground, in a wall, or around an appliance connection.
Next, we shut off the gas supply to eliminate immediate danger. We explain exactly what we found and what needs to happen to fix it safely. No surprises, no confusion—just clear information so you can make the right decision.
Finally, we complete the repair using proper materials and techniques that meet all California codes. We pressure-test the system to ensure the leak is completely eliminated, then restore your gas service safely. You’ll know the job is done right the first time.

Our gas leak repair service covers everything you need to restore safety to your Rio Linda home. We handle leaks in gas lines leading to water heaters, furnaces, stoves, dryers, and outdoor appliances like BBQ grills and fire pits.
Many Rio Linda homes have a mix of old iron pipes and newer flexible lines. We’re experienced with both systems and know exactly how to repair or replace damaged sections safely. We also install earthquake shut-off valves—important protection given California’s seismic activity.
Every repair includes proper permits and inspections when required. We provide detailed documentation for your insurance records and recommendations for preventing future problems. You get complete service from detection through final safety certification.
The most obvious sign is the distinctive “rotten egg” smell that gas companies add to natural gas for safety. But don’t rely on smell alone—some leaks occur outdoors where you might not notice the odor immediately.
Watch for dead or yellowing vegetation near gas lines, especially around your meter or appliance connections. You might hear hissing sounds from pipes or appliances, notice bubbling in standing water around your property, or experience unexplained symptoms like headaches, dizziness, or nausea when you’re at home.
If your gas bills suddenly spike without increased usage, that could indicate a leak that’s wasting gas. Never ignore these warning signs—if you suspect any gas leak, evacuate immediately and call us from outside your home.
Leave your home immediately—don’t stop to gather belongings or investigate further. Once you’re safely outside, call 911 and your gas utility company from a neighbor’s phone or your cell phone while standing well away from your house.
Don’t use any electrical switches, phones, or appliances inside your home. Don’t light matches, smoke, or create any sparks. If you can safely do so while leaving, open windows and doors to help ventilate the area, but your priority is getting everyone out quickly.
Don’t re-enter your home until utility company officials and our certified technicians have declared it safe. We’ll work with your utility company to locate and repair the leak, then ensure your gas service is restored safely once all repairs are complete.
Gas leak repair costs depend on the location and severity of the leak. Simple repairs to accessible connections might cost $120-$170, while more complex repairs requiring excavation or wall access can range from $1,500-$5,000.
We provide upfront pricing before any work begins—no hidden fees or surprises. For Rio Linda’s older homes, we often find that investing in repairs now prevents much more expensive emergency situations later. Many homeowners are surprised that basic leak repairs are quite affordable.
Remember that gas leaks waste money every day they go unfixed through higher utility bills. Plus, your safety is priceless. We offer free estimates and will explain all your options clearly so you can make the best decision for your home and budget.
Never attempt to repair gas leaks yourself—it’s both dangerous and illegal in California. Even “small” gas leaks can create serious risks of explosion, fire, or carbon monoxide poisoning. What looks like a minor issue often indicates larger problems that only trained professionals can properly diagnose.
Gas line work requires specialized tools, knowledge of local codes, and proper testing procedures to ensure safety. Improper repairs can make the situation much worse and potentially deadly. Only licensed plumbers with gas line certification should handle any gas-related repairs.
If you suspect a leak, focus on safety first—evacuate, call for help, and let certified professionals handle the repair. We have the training, equipment, and experience to fix gas leaks safely and permanently. Your family’s safety is worth the cost of professional service.
For Rio Linda homes over 25 years old—which includes most properties in your area—we recommend annual gas line inspections. Your home’s gas system ages just like any other component, and older systems develop maintenance needs that regular inspections can catch early.
These inspections help identify potential problems before they become dangerous leaks. We check all gas connections, test for proper pressure, examine visible gas lines for corrosion or damage, and ensure all appliances are properly connected and vented.
Regular inspections also provide valuable documentation for insurance purposes and help you plan for any needed upgrades or repairs. It’s much less expensive to address minor issues during routine maintenance than to deal with emergency repairs after a leak develops.
We repair all types of gas lines commonly found in Rio Linda homes. Many properties built in the 1970s have original iron pipes that may be corroding after decades of use. We’re experienced in replacing these older systems with modern materials that provide better longevity and safety.
We also work with newer flexible stainless steel lines (CSST), copper tubing, and black iron piping. Whether your gas line is buried underground, running through crawl spaces, or installed in walls, we have the equipment and expertise to access and repair it safely.
Our service includes gas lines feeding all types of appliances—water heaters, furnaces, stoves, dryers, outdoor grills, and fire pits. We handle everything from minor connection repairs to complete gas line replacement, always ensuring all work meets current California building codes and safety standards.
