What Our Gas Leak Repair Includes
Every gas leak repair job is different, but most include the core steps below.
Work order
Gas Leak Repair- Full Leak Inspection: We trace the gas line from meter to appliance using leak detection equipment and a pressure gauge. You get a clear explanation of where the leak is and what caused it, plus photos of the failed section before we repair it.
- Pipe and Fitting Repair: We cut out damaged pipe with a tube cutter and install new copper pipe, PEX tubing, or approved pipe fittings. Every joint is sealed with pipe thread sealant and Teflon tape, then tested. Most repairs use materials rated for natural gas service.
- Valve and Connector Replacement: Failing shut-off valves and appliance connectors are common leak points. We replace them with new code-compliant parts, including flexible connectors for ranges, dryers, and water heaters. This is often the fastest and most affordable fix.
- Pressure Test and Documentation: Before we restore gas service, we pressure-test the line and confirm the gauge holds. You receive a written summary of the repair, the parts used, and the test results. This documentation is useful for insurance and future service calls.
- Appliance Relight and Check: We relight pilot lights on water heaters, furnaces, and ranges, then check each appliance connection for leaks. If an appliance is failing, we tell you honestly whether it needs repair or replacement. No guesswork, no pressure.

What Pico Rivera Customers Say
I smelled gas near my water heater on a Saturday night and called Pico Rivera Plumbing. A technician was at my door in 40 minutes. He found a cracked connector, replaced it, and pressure-tested the line before he left. The price was exactly what he quoted. I will not call anyone else.
We manage a four-unit building on Beverly Boulevard and had a gas leak in one of the units. The team isolated the leak, repaired the copper pipe, and had all four units back on gas the same afternoon. They documented everything for our records. Professional and fast.
Our old steel gas line had been patched twice before. Pico Rivera Plumbing replaced the whole run with new copper pipe in one day. They showed me the corroded section they removed and explained why it failed. No more smell, no more worries. Worth every penny.
