Service details

What's included in your gas leak repair

  1. We gather information

    When you contact us for help with your gas line issue, first we’ll ask for some brief information. If your gas service has been shut off by your utility company, they will typically provide you with a report noting why your gas was turned off and the extent of your gas leak (e.g. whole house or isolated appliance).

    We'll ask you for the report, along with what type of property you have and what gas is used for in your home/building (e.g. heat, hot water, cooking).

  2. Initial consultation

    Once we receive your information, we'll promptly send a licensed gas plumber out to your property to:

    Perform an on-site inspection to assess your building's gas lines

    Our highly-trained licensed gas plumbers are up-to-date on the latest gas plumbing codes. You can depend on us for a proper and thorough evaluation of your gas piping.

    Prepare a detailed proposal

    We'll give you a detailed proposal outlining the repairs needed to correct the gas leak and restore your gas service.

  3. Filing permits and making the repairs

    Once you sign off on the proposal, we'll:

    File a Limited Alteration Application (LAA) permit with the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB)

    The LAA permit allows us to make any necessary repairs. NYC requires a permit to be filed for any work done on a gas line—including gas line replacement, repairs or installation. We'll handle any permit pulling for you.

    Once the DOB approves the permit, we'll return to make any repairs.


  4. Test the line and schedule inspections

    After we've repaired your gas leak, our team will perform a test on your gas line.

    If the line holds with no gas leaks present, we'll set up an appointment with the NYC DOB and perform a gas test in the presence of a licensed DOB inspector.

    Post-inspection, we'll set up an appointment with your utility company for a final inspection.

  5. Restore your gas service

    After your utility company approves the final inspection, they’ll restore gas service to your home/building.

  6. Guarantees and warranties

    We want you to feel peace of mind, which is why we always back up our work. For gas leak repairs, our customers receive:

    1-year labor warranty. We stand behind our gas leak repair work 1 year after service.

    100% satisfaction guarantee. If you're not 100% thrilled with our service, we'll make it right.

Price

How much does it cost to repair a gas leak in Queens?

The cost to repair a gas leak in Queens and the surrounding area varies widely, depending on these factors:

  • Location of the leak. Depending on the location of the leak, your repair costs can change. For example, if the leak is after an appliance shut off valve in your gas line, it is an easy repair and would cost less to repair. On the other hand, if the gas line is in an inaccessible location (e.g. in a tight crawlspace, behind a wall, etc.), the labor and repair costs will increase.
  • Whether there is a gas shutdown. If the gas leak occurs in the gas line before an appliance shut off valve and the utility company has shut down and locked the gas to the property, the repair costs will increase because the repair is more complex.
  • Extent of the damage. Depending on the age of your gas lines and the severity of the damage to them, you may have to replace and install new gas lines, which will increase your repair costs.
