Gas Leak Detection inAttleboro, MA

A suspected gas leak needs calm, safety-first action. Pinette Plumbing locates leaks, isolates unsafe gas lines, completes licensed repairs, and helps restore service for Attleboro homes.

Attleboro Gas Leak Detection and Repair.

Gas companies will shut off your service at the first sign of a leak. To get it turned back on, you need a licensed plumber to find the issue, make the repair, and document that the system holds pressure.

Pinette Plumbing uses electronic leak detectors and pressure testing methods to pinpoint even small leaks in walls, basements, or underground lines. We work with inspectors and utility requirements so your gas service can be restored safely. If the issue points to planned piping upgrades, replacements, or new appliance hookups, we route that work into gas line repair and installation.

Our Procedure

1

Locate & Isolate

After the scene is safe, we confirm the affected line, isolate the shutoff, and trace the leak source.

2

Repair

We repair corroded pipe, loose fittings, appliance connectors, valves, or exposed sections that no longer meet code.

3

Test & Certify

We pressure test the repaired line, document the result, and coordinate inspection requirements when service restoration depends on approval.

Emergency Steps Before We Arrive

Leave the building

Get everyone outside, avoid switches or flames, and do not use phones until you are safely away from the odor.

Call emergency help first

Call 911 or your gas utility from outside so the immediate hazard can be made safe before repair work begins.

Schedule licensed repair

Once the utility has shut off or cleared the gas, Pinette can locate the failed section and prepare the line for safe restoration.

What We Check During Testing

Gas leak repair is not just a patch. We check fittings, shutoff valves, appliance connectors, exposed pipe, concealed runs, and pressure stability so the repaired system can meet utility and inspection requirements.

If the leak points to a larger aging-line issue, we explain the immediate repair path first, then separate any broader gas line replacement, appliance hookup, or planned installation work so the next step is clear.

Safety FAQs

What do I do if I smell gas?
Evacuate immediately, avoid light switches and open flames, and do not use a phone until you are outside. Call 911 or your gas utility first, then call Pinette after the utility has made the scene safe for repair work.
How long does it take to fix a leak?
Locating the leak is often the hardest part. Once found, many repairs can be completed in a few hours, but pressure testing, inspection, and utility reconnection can sometimes extend the timeline.
Can you help after the gas company shuts off my service?
Yes. Once the immediate hazard is controlled, we can locate the failed section, repair or replace the affected gas line, pressure test the system, and help prepare for inspection or utility restoration.
