Your home's gas line is like an invisible lifeline—powering your heat, appliances, and comfort throughout the seasons. But when left unchecked or installed incorrectly, it can become a serious hazard. At Plumbing Today LLC, we take the safety of Omaha homeowners seriously. From routine inspections to emergency repairs, our licensed and insured technicians are on call to keep your gas line safe, secure, and functioning at its best.
Why Gas Line Maintenance Matters
Gas lines are often out of sight and out of mind—until there's a leak, strange odor, or sudden drop in performance. And when something goes wrong, it can be dangerous.

Gas Line Q&A:
Q: What are the signs of a gas leak?
A: Look for a strong rotten egg or sulfur smell, hissing sounds, or dead patches of vegetation in your yard. You may also see bubbles in standing water or hear an unusual noise near appliances.
Q: What should I do if I suspect a gas leak?
A: Leave the area immediately. Do not turn lights on or off, use your phone, or create any spark. Once safely outside, call 911 or call MUD at 402.554.7777 to report the leak.
Q: Who is responsible for maintaining gas lines?
A: You are responsible for any gas lines after the meter (the “house side”), including buried fuel lines. These should be inspected regularly for corrosion or leaks.
Q: When should I schedule a gas line inspection?
A: Schedule inspections when installing new appliances, doing major renovations, or if your system is over 10 years old. It's also wise to check before heating season begins.
Q: Can Plumbing Today help with buried gas line issues?
A: Yes! While M.U.D. will locate the main and service line for free when you call 811, we handle inspections and repairs on customer-owned buried lines.
Stay Safe Year-Round
Regular maintenance and awareness are key to keeping your home and family safe. We recommend scheduling an annual inspection, especially before the heating season. Clear snow and debris from vents, never use ovens for home heating, and install a natural gas detector if you have a decreased sense of smell.
