Gas Line Repair in Rockville, MD
Natural gas runs your furnace, water heater, range and dryer through a network of pipe that's often decades old. Black iron corrodes at the joints, old flexible connectors crack, and fittings loosen over time. Our gas line repair in Rockville, MD finds the leak, repairs or replaces the damaged section, and pressure-tests the system before it goes back in service.
We handle Rockville gas line repair in basements, crawl spaces, attics and outdoors, for houses, townhouses and commercial kitchens. We also do gas line repair in North Bethesda every week, and our 24/7 gas leak repair line is open all night.
Gas work and plumbing go together. A new gas water heater, a water heater repair, or a kitchen renovation often means changing a gas line too, and we handle both.
Signs of a Gas Leak at Home
Natural gas has an added odorant so you can smell a leak. Here's what else to watch for.
A Rotten-Egg Smell
That's the odorant added to natural gas. Any persistent smell near an appliance, meter or pipe means you should leave and call the utility.
Hissing Near a Line
A hissing or whistling sound near a gas pipe, valve or appliance connector can mean gas is escaping.
Dead Plants or Bubbles
Outdoors, a patch of dead grass over a buried line, or bubbles in standing water, can point to an underground leak.
Gas Line Installation in Rockville, MD
Adding a gas range, a dryer, a generator, an outdoor kitchen or a fire pit means running a new line sized for the load. Our gas line installation covers:
- New lines for ranges, cooktops and dryers
- Gas lines for tankless water heaters, which often need a larger line
- Outdoor grills, fire pits and pool heaters
- Standby generator connections
- Shut-off valves and sediment traps installed to code
A tankless upgrade is the most common reason a gas line needs resizing. See our water heater installation page for how we size it.

How Our Gas Line Repair Works
Make It Safe
If you smell gas, the utility shuts it off first. Then we find the leak.
Repair to Code
We repair or replace the damaged section with code-approved materials.
Pressure Test
We pressure-test the system and relight appliances before we leave.
Leave First, Then Call
Don't flip switches, use the phone inside, or light anything. Get everyone outside, then call 911 or your gas utility's emergency line from a safe distance. Once the utility has made it safe, call us for the repair.
Old Connectors & Unbonded CSST
Two hidden gas hazards are common in older homes. The first is old uncoated brass appliance connectors, which can crack and leak. The second is yellow corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST) that was never bonded to the electrical ground, which leaves it vulnerable to lightning damage. Both are easy to check and fix.
- Replacing old flexible appliance connectors
- Bonding CSST gas lines
- Adding missing shut-off valves
- Gas pressure testing after any repair
