Emergency Gas Leak Response
Safety Is Always Our First Priority
Gas leaks require immediate professional attention. Natural gas itself is odorless, but utility companies add a distinctive “rotten egg” smell to help detect leaks. If you suspect a gas leak, your family’s safety comes first.
If You Smell Gas or Suspect a Leak:
- Leave immediately – Get everyone out of the house
- Don’t use anything electrical – No light switches, phones, or appliances
- Call 911 from outside – Report the gas leak to emergency services
- Call us at 972-914-0833 – We’ll respond quickly once the area is safe
Our Emergency Gas Leak Services:
- Immediate Response – Available 24/7 for gas emergencies
- Professional Detection – Advanced equipment locating leaks accurately
- Expert Repair – Licensed technicians trained in gas line safety
- System Testing – Verification that repairs eliminate all leaks
- Safety Inspection – Complete evaluation of your gas system
Never attempt to locate or repair gas leaks yourself. Gas line work requires licensed professionals with specialized training and equipment.

Recognizing Gas Leak Warning Signs
What to Watch For in Your Home
Gas leaks can develop from various causes including aging pipes, loose connections, corrosion, physical damage, or improper installation. Knowing warning signs helps protect your family.
Common Gas Leak Indicators:
Distinctive odor resembling rotten eggs or sulfur is the most obvious sign. Natural gas companies add this smell specifically for leak detection.
Hissing or whistling sounds near gas lines or appliances indicate gas escaping under pressure.
Dead or dying vegetation in your yard near underground gas lines suggests a possible leak affecting plant health.
Physical symptoms including headaches, dizziness, nausea, fatigue, or breathing difficulties when inside your home may indicate gas exposure.
Higher gas bills without increased usage could signal gas escaping through leaks somewhere in your system.
Atmos turns gas off to the property. If there has been an interruption in service, after a certain amount of time Atmos will require a gas test performed to make sure that the gas system is in safe operational condition and doesn’t have any leaks. Atmos will also turn the gas off if they determine that there is a leak.
If you notice any of these signs, take them seriously. Leave your home, call 911, and then contact us for professional gas line service.
Why Gas Line Work Requires Licensed Professionals
Safety and Expertise Matter
Gas line installation and repair isn’t DIY territory. Natural gas is highly flammable and potentially deadly when leaking into enclosed spaces. Professional service protects your family through:
Proper Training and Licensing: Our technicians complete extensive training and maintain required certifications for gas line work. We stay current on safety protocols, building codes, and best practices.
Specialized Equipment: Professional leak detection equipment, pressure testing tools, and proper materials ensure safe, reliable installations and repairs.
Code Compliance: Gas work must meet strict building codes and safety standards. Professional installation ensures compliance and protects your home’s value and your family’s safety.
Liability Protection: Licensed, bonded, and insured professionals protect you from liability if problems occur. Unlicensed work can void insurance coverage and create legal issues.
Manufacturer Warranties: Many gas appliances require professional installation to maintain warranty coverage. DIY or unlicensed work can void these protections.
Gas Safety for Best Southwest Homeowners
Important Information for Your Family
Know Your Main Gas Shutoff: Every family member should know where the main gas shutoff valve is located and how to turn it off in emergencies. This valve is typically where the gas meter connects to your house.
Carbon Monoxide Detectors: Gas appliances produce carbon monoxide, an odorless, deadly gas. Install CO detectors on every floor of your home and test them monthly.
Regular Appliance Maintenance: Gas furnaces, water heaters, and other appliances need annual professional maintenance to operate safely and efficiently.
Never Use Gas Appliances for Heating: Never use gas ranges, ovens, or outdoor equipment indoors for heating. These create dangerous carbon monoxide levels in enclosed spaces.
After Power Outages: If power loss affects gas appliances with electronic ignition, ensure they restart properly. Pilot lights may need relighting following manufacturer procedures.
