FAQs
What are the most common signs of a leaking gas line in my Harriman home or business?
Typical indicators include a rotten-egg or sulfur smell, hissing sounds near piping or appliances, dead or discolored vegetation around buried lines, unexplained increases in your gas bill, or physical symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, or nausea when you’re indoors. If you notice any of these signs, leave the area immediately and call for emergency service.
What should I do if I suspect a gas leak before the plumber arrives?
Act quickly and prioritize safety: (1) Do not use electrical switches, phones, or open flames. (2) Evacuate everyone from the building, leaving doors open to vent gas. (3) From a safe distance, call 911 and your gas utility to shut off service. (4) Contact our Harriman emergency plumbing team—available 24/7—to locate and repair the leak. Never attempt DIY repairs on a gas line.
How fast can your emergency plumbing team reach me in Harriman?
Because we operate locally, our on-call technicians are typically on site within 60 minutes of your call, day or night, weekends and holidays included. We dispatch from multiple points around Harriman and travel with fully stocked trucks so repairs can begin immediately.
Are your plumbers licensed to work on natural gas lines?
Yes. All of our technicians hold current Tennessee plumbing and gas fitting licenses, are insured, and undergo continuous training in gas line installation, leak detection, and safety protocols. This ensures repairs meet state and local codes as well as manufacturer specifications.
How do you locate a hidden gas leak without tearing into walls or landscaping?
We use advanced, non-invasive tools such as electronic combustible-gas detectors, ultrasonic leak detectors, and infrared thermal imaging. For underground lines, we perform tracer-wire locating and pressure testing. These methods allow us to pinpoint leaks accurately, minimize property damage, and complete repairs faster.
How much does emergency gas line repair typically cost in Harriman?
Pricing depends on factors like leak location, pipe material and size, accessibility, and whether replacement sections or new shut-off valves are required. After an on-site assessment, we provide a written, upfront estimate. Typical emergency repairs in Harriman range from $250 for simple above-ground fixes to $1,500 or more for complex underground or interior line replacements. We also offer financing options for larger projects.
