Murray Plumbing has been handling gas line repairs in Shingle Springs for years. We understand the local codes, the soil conditions, and what it takes to keep gas systems running safely in this area.

When Shingle Springs residents need gas line repairs, they call us because we show up when we say we will and fix what needs fixing. No drama, no excuses.
First, we make sure everyone’s safe. If there’s an active leak, we’ll shut off the gas supply and secure the area. Safety comes before everything else.
Next, we locate the problem. We use electronic leak detectors and pressure testing to find exactly where the issue is – no guessing. This saves time and keeps costs down because we’re not tearing up more than necessary.
Then we make the repair. Whether it’s replacing a damaged section, fixing a loose connection, or upgrading old fittings, we use the right materials and techniques. After the repair, we test everything to make sure it’s working properly and meets code requirements.

You get a complete assessment of your gas line system, not just a quick patch job. We check the entire line from your meter to your appliances to make sure everything’s working safely.
The repair includes all necessary parts, proper fittings, and any required permits or inspections. In Shingle Springs, soil conditions can affect underground gas lines, so we factor in local environmental considerations when making repairs.
We also provide a clear explanation of what we found, what we fixed, and what you should watch for going forward. You’ll know exactly what was done and why it was necessary.
Most gas line repairs in Shingle Springs cost between $150 and $700, depending on what needs to be fixed. A simple leak repair might be on the lower end, while replacing a section of damaged pipe costs more.
The final price depends on where the problem is located, how much pipe needs to be replaced, and whether we need to dig or access areas behind walls. We give you an upfront estimate before starting any work, so you know what to expect.
Keep in mind that emergency repairs outside normal business hours may cost more, but sometimes waiting isn’t an option when dealing with gas leaks.
The most obvious sign is smelling gas – that distinctive rotten egg odor that utility companies add to natural gas. If you smell this anywhere in your home or yard, that’s an emergency situation.
You might also hear a hissing sound near gas lines or appliances, notice dead vegetation near your gas meter or underground lines, or see an unexplained spike in your gas bills. Some people notice their gas appliances aren’t working as efficiently as they used to.
If you suspect any gas line problems, don’t try to investigate yourself. Call a professional immediately and avoid using electrical switches, matches, or anything that could create a spark.
No, California law requires that only licensed professionals handle gas line repairs. DIY gas line work is illegal and extremely dangerous – even small mistakes can lead to explosions, fires, or carbon monoxide poisoning.
Licensed gas line technicians have specialized training in pressure testing, leak detection, and proper installation techniques. They also know the local codes and safety requirements that apply in Shingle Springs.
Attempting DIY repairs can also void your homeowner’s insurance and create liability issues if something goes wrong. It’s not worth the risk when professional help is available.
Simple repairs like fixing a loose connection or replacing a small section of pipe typically take 1-3 hours. More complex repairs that require excavation or accessing lines behind walls can take most of a day.
Emergency leak repairs get priority – we focus on making the situation safe first, then completing the permanent repair. Sometimes this means temporarily shutting off gas to part of your home while we work.
The time also depends on whether we need permits or inspections, which are required for certain types of gas line work in California. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when we assess the job.

Many homeowner’s insurance policies do cover gas line damage, but coverage varies depending on what caused the problem and your specific policy terms. Sudden damage from things like ground shifting or tree roots is often covered.
However, gradual wear and tear or damage from lack of maintenance typically isn’t covered. It’s worth checking with your insurance company about your specific coverage for gas line repairs.
What insurance definitely won’t cover is damage from DIY repairs or work done by unlicensed contractors. That’s another reason to make sure any gas line work is done by properly licensed professionals who can provide the documentation insurance companies require.
