Gas Leak Detection Services

Emergency Gas Leak Services

bluefrog plumbing gas leak

A gas leak is no joke, and it’s not something you should try to solve on your own. For you and your family's safety, always call a professional if you suspect you have a leak in your home.

Our team at bluefrog Plumbing + Drain provides skilled gas leak detection services 24/7. We quickly identify where the leak is coming from and remedy the problem so you can get back to normal as soon as possible.

Even if you’re not sure that what you smell is gas or you suspect your alarm might be faulty, it’s always better to call us for a false alarm than to keep your family in a potentially dangerous environment.

What To Do If You Suspect A Gas Leak

  1. Don’t use phones, light switches, garage door openers, or any other electrical devices while you’re still inside.
  2. Open doors and windows
  3. Leave the home right away, and get everyone to a safe distance outside.
  4. Call 911 from outside the home.
  5. Once you’re outside and safe, schedule a service appointment with your local Bluefrog Plumbing + Drain expert.

How To Recognize A Gas Leak:
Signs, Smells, And Sounds

Natural gas is odorized, so many homeowners notice a “rotten eggs” or sulfur smell first. You might also hear a hissing sound near a gas line, appliance connection, or meter.

Some leaks show visible warning signs, like dead or dying vegetation near a buried line, or bubbling in standing water outdoors.

Natural gas and carbon monoxide aren’t the same. Carbon monoxide is odorless, and you need a dedicated carbon monoxide detector to warn you of it.

Gas Leak Detection

Professional gas leak detection goes beyond checking detectors — our technicians use electronic gas detectors, pressure testing, and line isolation to pinpoint exactly where gas is escaping. We inspect visible piping, fittings, and appliance connections, confirm readings with calibrated equipment, and walk you through findings and repair options before leaving your home.

Common Causes of Gas Leaks in Your Home

Protect Yourself Against These Silent Disasters

Stove Pilot Lights
Water Heater Pilot Lights
Carbon Monoxide Leak
Stove Pilot Lights

The most common cause of a gas leak in your home is a pilot light on your stove going out. Even though most modern stoves have automatic shut-off valves, you should always check your stove first if you smell gas in your home. If you can’t relight the pilot light or if you continue to smell gas, call us immediately.

Water Heater Pilot Lights

If you smell gas in your home or if your hot water stops working, the problem might be your water heater. It’s always a good idea to schedule maintenance visits to prevent issues with your water heater.

BOOK NOW

Carbon Monoxide Leak

A carbon monoxide leak is odorless and silent. The best way to protect against it is to schedule regular inspections of your furnace and other appliances that use combustion and to have bluefrog install a carbon monoxide detector.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Does a Gas Leak Smell Like?

Natural gas is odorless on its own, but utility companies add mercaptan to give it a recognizable smell often described as rotten eggs or sulfur. If you notice that odor in or around your home, treat it as a potential gas leak until confirmed otherwise.

What Should I Do Immediately if I Suspect a Gas Leak?

Don't turn any switches, lights, or appliances on or off. Leave the home immediately, leaving doors open as you go, and call your gas utility or 911 from outside. Don't re-enter until the property has been cleared by emergency services or a licensed technician.

How Do Professionals Detect Gas Leaks?

Technicians use electronic gas detectors calibrated to identify methane and other gases, combined with pressure testing and line or appliance isolation to narrow down the exact source. This goes well beyond what a residential detector can do and provides a precise location rather than just confirming gas is present.

Can I Detect a Gas Leak Myself?

You can identify signs of a potential leak: the sulfur smell, a hissing sound near a line or appliance, dead vegetation in an otherwise healthy area outside, or bubbling near a buried line. What you can't do reliably is locate the source or confirm the system is safe. That requires calibrated equipment and a licensed technician. 

Learn more about how to detect a gas leak in your home.

Is Carbon Monoxide the Same as a Natural Gas Leak?

No. Carbon monoxide is a byproduct of incomplete combustion from gas appliances, generators, or vehicles — it's colorless and odorless. Natural gas is the fuel itself, and it has the added sulfur smell. Both are serious hazards, but they require different detection equipment and have different sources. A gas leak can produce carbon monoxide if it's feeding incomplete combustion, but they're distinct problems.
