What Is Gas Leak Detection?
Gas leak detection is the process of finding the exact point where gas is escaping from a household or commercial gas installation — a supply pipe, a hob connection, a boiler or a water heater fitting — before any repair is attempted. Because a gas leak is a safety risk rather than just a maintenance issue, detection always comes with an assessment of whether it's safe to leave the gas supply on while the fault is traced. In Valencia properties with older gas installations, that usually means checking pipework, connections and appliance fittings together, not just the part that looks obviously faulty.
- Locating leaks in gas supply pipework
- Checking hob, boiler and water heater gas connections
- Testing appliance fittings and shut-off valves
- Confirming whether it's safe to leave the gas supply on
- Investigating a rise in gas bills with no change in use
- Repairing or replacing faulty gas fittings and connections
- Providing a written repair plan once the source is confirmed

Signs to Watch For
Signs You Have a Gas Leak
A gas leak doesn't always announce itself with a strong smell straight away. If any of these sound familiar, it's worth getting checked.
- ✓ A smell of gas, often compared to rotten eggs
- ✓ A hissing sound near a pipe, hob or boiler
- ✓ Dead or discoloured houseplants near a gas line
- ✓ Headaches, dizziness or nausea that ease outdoors
- ✓ A hob flame burning yellow instead of blue
- ✓ A gas bill that's risen with no change in use
If the smell of gas is strong, don't wait for an inspection. Leave the property, avoid switches, flames or anything that could spark, and call the national gas emergency number or 112 immediately — then contact us once it's safe.

Gas Leak Detection
Valencia FAQ
Do you detect gas leaks in Valencia homes and businesses?
Yes. We trace gas leaks in supply pipework, hob and boiler connections, water heaters and other appliance fittings, for apartments, houses and commercial units across Valencia and nearby towns.
+
What should I do if I smell gas right now?
Leave the property immediately, avoid using light switches, phones or anything that could spark, and don't turn appliances on or off. Call the national gas emergency number or 112 first, then contact us once it's safe to do so.
+
How do you find the source of a gas leak?
We check pipework, connections and appliances with a gas detector, working from the meter through to each appliance, to confirm the exact point of the leak before recommending any repair.
+
Can you repair the leak once you've found it?
Yes. Detection and repair are handled by the same team. We confirm the cause and the cost with you before carrying out the repair, then retest to confirm the leak is fully resolved.
+
Is it safe to stay in the property while you inspect a suspected leak?
If the smell is faint and you have no symptoms, it's usually fine to wait indoors with windows open while we're on the way. If the smell is strong, or you feel unwell, leave the property and call the gas emergency number or 112 before we arrive.
+
Will I get a price before any repair work starts?
Yes. Once the leak is located, we explain the cause and give you a written quote for the repair before doing any work — gas repairs are never billed by the hour.
+
Do you work with landlords and rental properties?
Yes, that's a normal part of our work. We deal with landlords, property managers and tenants alike, and can coordinate straight with the agency or landlord when the tenant isn't the one covering the cost.
+
What are common signs of a gas leak besides the smell?
A hissing sound near a pipe or appliance, dead or discoloured plants near a gas line, a hob flame burning yellow instead of blue, unexplained headaches or nausea, or a gas bill that's risen with no change in use.
