Gas Repiping Service in Olympia

Corroded gas lines call for immediate professional attention. Seals at the gas line joints tend to wear down over time, resulting in rust or corrosion. Olympians should also be on the lookout for cracked or pinched gas lines. Any visible damage to the gas line requires a prompt, professional inspection. At Flohawks, we are committed to protecting our Olympia customers. We don’t advocate repairing small cracks in gas lines. Instead, we typically recommend replacing the entire line for your safety.

Natural gas is odorless, but municipal gas suppliers often add a smell for users’ safety. One sign of leaking gas is a distinct odor of rotten eggs. We’ll first trace the smell’s origin before we any repair work begins. The scent could be coming from the laundry dryer or water heater.

It can be difficult to detect a gas leak. Every Olympian should watch out for these signs.

• Hissing sounds
• Scent of rotten eggs
• Ineffective gas appliances
• Dead or brown vegetation
• Sudden increase in the utility bill

Not all gas leaks are noticeable. An ordinary homeowner can hardly detect a slow gas leak. However, when clients contact us for leak detection, we carefully look for any loose connection throughout your piping system. Hairline cracks are a common source of gas leaks.

Both slow and quick gas leaks can cause severe damage. We recommend leaving your home immediately if you notice a gas leak. Never spark a match or lighter or turn on any of your electronics in this situation. Retreat to a safer area and contact Flohawks for an emergency gas leak repair anywhere in the Olympia area. We will inspect your gas line to determine if it needs repair or replacement.
