Gas Leaks

Gas leaks can be dangerous and a waste of both fossil fuels and money. An emergency plumber/gasfitter called to attend a gas leak would normally trace the leak to find its source, and then shut off the gas supply and repair the section of pipe that was leaking. The gas supply would then be resumed and tested.

Tip: Familiarize yourself with the location of your gas meter so that you can turn off the supply quickly in the event of an emergency.
