Repairing a broken natural gas line is a job for professionals only. Here's how it’s typically done:
- Gas Shutoff: The first step is to turn off the gas supply to the house, preventing further leakage and reducing the risk of fire or explosion.
- Damage Assessment: The technician will assess the damage to determine the best repair method.
- Repair: Depending on the severity, the broken section of the gas line may be replaced, or an epoxy putty may be applied to seal the leak effectively.
