Natural Gas and LPG Leak Detection

Pinpoint the Source of the Gas Leak
Once we have discovered evidence of a leaking gas problem, the next step is to locate the exact position of the leak. It could be underground, near a fitting, near an appliance, around a meter or in a place that would not otherwise be detected without expert gas leak detection, including tracer gas detection where suitable.
Even if the leak is deep within a concrete slab or hidden underground, we can help locate it. Our utility line location service can also help identify underground services before excavation. This can save you time, effort, hassle and worry when arranging the next stage of treatment or repair.
What to Do If You Suspect a Gas Leak
If the smell of gas is strong, or you feel there is immediate danger, leave the area and contact the appropriate emergency service or gas network. Avoid ignition sources and do not ignore the issue. Once the property is safe to assess, arrange professional gas leak detection as soon as possible. To book an inspection, contact our team.
Advice for Gas Leak Treatment
When we have located the leak, we will present you with the available options for leak treatment. From there, we can suggest the best method for your circumstances, but the final decision remains with you. You know your budget and needs, and our role is to help you make an informed decision.
