We handle every type of gas emergency common to Diamond Springs homes and businesses. This includes gas line leaks, faulty connections, damaged pipes from ground settling, and appliance connection issues.
Our service includes professional leak detection using electronic equipment that pinpoints exact leak locations, even underground. Repairs cover everything from simple connection tightening to complete gas line replacement when pipes are too corroded to patch safely.
Diamond Springs’ older homes often have gas lines installed decades ago that need updating to current safety standards. We can upgrade your entire gas system or repair specific problem areas while ensuring all work meets California building codes and safety requirements.
The most obvious sign is a strong rotten egg or sulfur smell, which comes from mercaptan added to natural gas for safety. You might also hear hissing or whistling sounds near gas lines or appliances, even when they’re turned off.
Look for dead or yellowing vegetation near gas lines, which indicates underground leaks. Inside your home, watch for physical symptoms like headaches, dizziness, nausea, or fatigue that improve when you leave the house.
Some Diamond Springs homes have older gas lines that may leak without producing a strong odor, especially if the gas passes through certain soil conditions. If you suspect any gas leak, evacuate immediately and call for professional help.

No, you should evacuate immediately if you smell gas anywhere in your home or on your property. Don’t use light switches, phones, or any electrical devices that could create sparks. Don’t light matches or operate vehicles near the suspected leak area.
Open doors and windows as you leave to help ventilate the area, but don’t waste time doing this if the smell is strong. Get everyone, including pets, away from the building and call for help from a safe distance.
Even small gas leaks can become dangerous quickly, especially in enclosed spaces where gas can accumulate. Professional leak detection equipment is needed to determine if it’s safe to re-enter your home.
Yes, many Diamond Springs homes have gas lines installed 30-50 years ago using materials and methods that don’t meet current safety standards. Cast iron and older steel pipes are particularly prone to corrosion and leaks over time.
Ground settling, tree root growth, and soil conditions common in El Dorado County can stress older gas lines and create leak points. These homes often need gas line inspections every few years to catch problems before they become dangerous.
Upgrading to modern gas lines with current materials and safety features is often the most cost-effective long-term solution for older homes, especially if you’re already dealing with multiple small leaks or frequent repairs.
Stay outside at least 350 feet from your home and don’t re-enter for any reason. Don’t start vehicles, use cell phones, or smoke anywhere near the suspected leak area. Keep family members and pets away from the building.
If possible, locate and turn off your main gas shut-off valve, but only if you can do so safely without going near the leak source. The shut-off is typically located near your gas meter outside the house.
Don’t attempt to ventilate the area with fans or try to find the leak source yourself. Professional gas detection equipment is needed to safely locate and assess gas leaks without creating ignition risks.
Gas leak repair costs vary depending on the leak location, pipe material, and extent of damage. Simple connection repairs or valve replacements typically cost $200-500, while underground line repairs or extensive pipe replacement can range from $800-3000.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what repairs will cost. There are no surprise fees or charges for “extra” services you didn’t approve, even during emergency calls.
Emergency service calls may include a service fee for after-hours response, but repair prices remain fair regardless of when your emergency happens. Most homeowner’s insurance policies cover gas leak repairs, especially when they’re related to normal wear and aging.
