What Is Professional Gas Leak Detection & Repair?

Gas leak detection and repair is a safety-focused service that:

  • Confirms whether gas is leaking, and where.

  • Identifies the source of the leak (fitting, connector, pipe, valve, appliance connection, etc.).

  • Recommends and performs appropriate repairs or replacements.

  • Tests and verifies the system after repairs so it’s safe to operate.

This may involve:

  • Electronic gas detection near suspected areas.

  • Targeted soap testing on joints and fittings.

  • Isolated pressure testing on sections of gas piping.

  • Inspecting appliance connectors, valves, and flex lines for damage or age.

Why Choose Active Plumbing

  • Licensed gas pros: Repairs and leak checks handled by licensed Nevada plumbers/technicians.


  • Detection tools, not guessing: We use professional gas detectors, pressure testing, and soap-solution techniques where appropriate.


  • Repair + prevention mindset: We don’t just patch; we look for underlying causes like corrosion, movement, or outdated fittings.


  • Experienced with all gas-fed equipment: Heaters, ranges, dryers, fireplaces, BBQs, pool heaters, and more.


  • Documentation-friendly: We can provide clear descriptions of what was found and fixed for your records, inspections, or insurance.

Immediate Actions (What to Do Now)

If you suspect a gas leak:

For strong gas odor, hissing, or obvious leak signs:

  • Leave the area immediately—get people and pets to safety.

  • Avoid flames, sparks, and electrical switches (on or off).

  • From a safe location, contact your gas utility or emergency services.

  • Once the situation has been made safe and gas is shut off, call Active Plumbing at (702) 438-3357 for gas leak detection and repair.

For mild, intermittent concerns (not an emergency):

  • Note where and when you notice the smell or symptoms (kitchen, furnace area, outdoors, etc.).

  • Let us know if any appliances were recently installed, moved, or serviced.

  • Call Active Plumbing at (702) 438-3357 and mention you need non-emergency gas leak detection and repair so we can schedule an inspection.

Common Situations Where Gas Leak Detection & Repair Is Needed

  • You smell gas (rotten egg/“sulfur” smell) inside or outside the home.

  • You hear a hissing or blowing sound near a gas line, meter, or appliance.

  • A gas utility technician has shut your gas off and advised you to have a plumber repair leaks.

  • You’ve had appliances moved or installed and smell gas afterward.

  • You see corroded, bent, or damaged gas lines or flex connectors.

  • An inspector has flagged a gas leak, non-compliant connector, or suspect fitting during a home sale or remodel.

Our Gas Leak Detection & Repair Process (Step-by-Step)

Initial Safety Check & Interview

We confirm the area is safe to enter, ask what you’ve noticed (smell, sound, location), and identify any recent changes (new appliances, work done, etc.).

Visual Inspection & Quick Scan

We visually inspect accessible gas piping, meters, valves, and appliance connections, and may use portable gas detectors to scan likely leak areas.

Targeted Testing & Leak Confirmation

Using techniques such as soap solution on fittings and/or section pressure testing, we work to pinpoint leak locations and determine whether there is one leak or multiple.

Repair Plan & On-the-Spot Fixes

We explain our findings, recommend specific repairs (e.g., replacing fittings, connectors, sections of pipe, or valves), and with your approval, perform on-the-spot repairs where possible.

Post-Repair Pressure Test & Leak Re-Check

After repairs, we re-test the affected areas (and, when appropriate, the broader system) to confirm no active leaks and that pressures are stable.

System Restart, Safety Briefing & Documentation

We restore gas to appliances, verify proper ignition and operation, review what was found and fixed, go over basic safety guidance, and provide documentation for your records.

What’s Included

A typical gas leak detection and repair visit may include:

  • Safety-oriented visual inspection of accessible gas piping and appliances

  • Use of gas detection tools and targeted testing to locate leaks

  • Repair or replacement of leaking fittings, connectors, or short sections of piping (scope depends on situation)

  • Post-repair testing to verify no active leaks in the serviced areas

  • Restart and basic operational check of affected appliances (where safe and applicable)

  • Written or verbal summary of findings, repairs, and any additional recommendations

(Exact scope depends on where the leak is, how extensive it is, and the condition of your gas system.)

Costs & Timelines (What to Expect)

Cost and timing for gas leak detection and repair depend on:

  • Whether it’s an emergency call or scheduled service.

  • How quickly the leak source is identified (single obvious leak vs multiple or hidden leaks).

  • The location and accessibility of the leak (meter outside vs attic, crawlspace, behind finishes, etc.).

  • How much repair work is needed—simple fitting replacement vs re-piping a section.

  • Whether additional code or safety updates (e.g., new shutoff valves, flex connectors) are recommended.

You’ll receive a clear, upfront explanation of:

  • Any diagnostic charges

  • Repair costs based on what we find

  • Next steps and options if more extensive work is recommended

Insurance & Claims Help

Gas leaks often involve utilities and sometimes insurance:

  • Your gas utility may shut off gas until a licensed professional repairs leaks and confirms safety.

  • Some leaks or damage (for example, after certain incidents) may be part of an insurance claim, depending on your policy and cause.

We can help by:

  • Providing itemized invoices and repair descriptions.

  • Documenting where leaks were found and how they were repaired.

  • Coordinating with inspectors or utility as needed for re-light or reactivation steps (within their policies).

Your utility and insurer always make the final call on coverage and reactivation; we provide professional repair and documentation.

Risks of Waiting (Why Act Now)

Sometimes gas leaks reveal bigger underlying problems:

  • Old, corroded, or poorly installed piping may be leaking in multiple places, not just one.

  • DIY or “quick fix” gas work can hide unsafe tees, buried joints, or unapproved materials.

  • A detected leak may indicate that sections of the system are at the end of their life, and larger-scale re-piping is the safest option.

  • Not every issue is visible—some leaks may require sectional pressure testing and more extensive access.

If we discover your system needs more than a small spot repair, we’ll clearly explain:

  • What we found

  • Why it matters for safety and performance

  • Options and related costs for more comprehensive repair

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do first if I smell strong gas?

If the odor is strong or you hear hissing: leave immediately, avoid flames/sparks, don’t use switches or phones near the leak, and contact your gas utility or emergency services. Once safe and gas is off, call us for inspection and repair.

Can you come even if the gas company hasn’t been out yet?

Yes—for non-emergency concerns, we can be your first call. For active, strong leaks, it’s usually best to contact your gas utility/emergency services first for immediate shutoff and safety.

Will you need to tear open walls?

Sometimes leaks are in accessible areas and don’t require opening walls. If a leak is concealed, we may need to gain access; we’ll explain options before opening anything.

Can I use soapy water to look for leaks myself?

For minor suspicion, some homeowners do, but it’s easy to miss leaks or create unsafe situations if you’re not trained. For anything beyond a very mild concern, it’s safer to call licensed professionals.

Can you relight my appliances after repairs?

Yes—once repairs and testing are done and the system is safe, we can relight and verify operation of your gas appliances (within utility and code guidelines).
