Gas Leak Repair & Gas Service Restoration in NYC
Gas Service Restoration
If your building’s gas was shut off due to a gas leak, unlicensed or illegal gas work, failed inspection, or unsafe condition, restoring service requires more than simply turning the gas back on. In New York City, gas restoration requires a Licensed Master Plumber, Department of Buildings permits and inspections, utility company approvals, and a successful pressure test of the gas piping system.
We help property owners, landlords, and building managers navigate the restoration process from start to finish. That includes performing necessary repairs, filing permits, and coordinating with the Department of Buildings and your utility company (Con Edison or National Grid) to complete all required inspections.
Most importantly, a pressure test must be performed to ensure that the gas piping system is safe and free of leaks before service can be restored.
When your gas service is interrupted, working with an experienced, licensed plumbing contractor can help avoid unnecessary delays and get your building back up and running safely.
Gas Leak Repair Services
When it comes to gas leaks, safety is not optional. In New York City, gas piping repairs and alterations must be performed by a Licensed Master Plumber who will file the necessary permits to ensure compliance with local codes.
Many property owners are tempted to save money by hiring a handyman to replace a gas valve or make a quick repair. This can be a costly and dangerous mistake. Gas systems require specialized knowledge, proper licensing, and above all, a strict adherence to safety regulations. An improperly installed valve or untested gas line can create serious hazards for occupants and the building.
Our team performs gas leak repairs in accordance with New York City Fuel Gas Code, in addition to the Department of Buildings regulations. After repairs are completed, a pressure test must be performed and witnessed by the Department of Buildings.
Don’t take risks with gas work. Hire a licensed professional, ensure the proper permits are in place, and make sure your gas piping is thoroughly tested before the job is considered complete.
