Gas Line Repair and Leak Safety in Whitestown

Natural gas powers the furnaces, water heaters, and ranges in most Whitestown homes, with service from CenterPoint Energy. Gas is safe when the lines are sound, but a suspected leak is a serious safety matter that needs immediate, professional attention. If you smell gas, get everyone out of the home, do not flip switches, and call your gas provider from outside, then call us.

This is a repair and safety page, not new-run installation. We locate and repair leaks, fix faulty connections, and pressure-test lines so your home is safe. Call (317) 436-3846 for a suspected leak or a gas line concern.

• A rotten-egg or sulfur smell near appliances or the meter
• A hissing sound near a gas line or connection
• Dead or discolored vegetation over a buried line
• An unusually high gas bill with no change in usage
• A pilot or appliance that will not stay lit

Even in newer Whitestown homes, a loose connection at an appliance or a corroded fitting can leak. We use leak detection equipment to pinpoint the source rather than guessing, then make a code-compliant repair and verify it holds.

Our job here is to make an existing gas line safe again. If you instead want to add a new gas run for a grill, range, or generator, that is a separate service at gas line installation. For broader plumbing concerns, the plumbing repair page covers the rest of the home.

I smell gas. What should I do right now?

Leave the home immediately, do not use switches, phones, or flames inside, and call your gas provider from outside. Then call us at (317) 436-3846. Your safety comes first, always.

How do you find a gas leak?

We use calibrated leak detection equipment and pressure testing to pinpoint the exact source, whether it is a fitting, a connection at an appliance, or a section of line. We do not guess with gas.

Can a newer home still have a gas leak?

Yes. Loose appliance connections, a faulty valve, or a damaged fitting can leak even in recent construction. Any suspected leak deserves prompt professional attention.

Will you verify the repair is safe?

Always. After repairing, we pressure-test the line and confirm it holds before restoring service. We make sure your home is genuinely safe, not just patched.

Do you coordinate with the gas utility?

When needed, yes. CenterPoint Energy handles service up to the meter, and we handle the lines beyond it. We will tell you which side an issue falls on.
