Why Burbank Calls Us

Gas Service Built for Burbank Homes & Businesses

Burbank built out fast in the post-war decades, which means thousands of nearly identical brick ranches with original black iron piping — and they age on the same schedule. When connectors and threaded joints start failing in one block, the neighbors aren't far behind. We also handle the restaurants and storefronts along Cicero Avenue and 79th Street.

Gas Emergencies in Burbank: What to Do

If you smell that telltale rotten-egg odor anywhere in your Burbank home or business — basement, near the furnace, behind the range — treat it as real. Get everyone outside, including pets, and avoid switches, plugs, and open flames on your way out. Once you're a safe distance away, call us at (708) 381-2959, or 911 if you sense immediate danger.

Because Burbank's housing went up in the same few years, gas-line failures here come in waves — a leak next door is a good reason to have your own lines tested. Our overnight and holiday dispatch exists for exactly those calls. A technician heads your way — typically arriving in 30–60 minutes — to locate the leak with an electronic detector and shut down the hazard.

Nicor Gas is responsible for the service line up to and including your meter; everything past the meter — house lines, valves, and appliance connections — is where we work. If you're not sure which side the problem is on, call us and we'll help you make the right call quickly.

Common Burbank Gas Problems We See

The local building mix produces a predictable set of issues:

  • Original black iron piping aging on the same schedule across 1950s–60s blocks
  • Old-style appliance connectors that predate modern safety standards
  • Storefront and restaurant gas service along Cicero Avenue and 79th Street
  • Buried lines to detached garages, grills, and fire pits that corrode over time
  • Undersized or improperly run lines added without a permit by a previous owner
  • CSST fittings that were never properly tightened or bonded

Keeping Burbank Gas Lines Safe

The most reliable way to avoid an emergency is a periodic leak-and-pressure check, particularly before heating season. For older Burbank buildings, we recommend an inspection of the visible piping every year or two; corrosion on black iron and galvanized pipe happens slowly and silently until a joint finally weeps. For newer construction, the priority is the connection points — connectors, valves, and CSST fittings — which is where most modern leaks begin.

Any time you add or move a gas appliance — a new range, a patio grill line, a garage heater, a pool heater — have the connection leak-tested and permitted. It protects your family, keeps the work on record for resale, and avoids problems with the City of Burbank inspection. We handle the permit and the test as part of the job.
