Gas Leak & Gas Line Repair in Prospect Heights, IL
Licensed Gas Technicians, Dispatched to Your Door

Gas Service Built for Prospect Heights Homes & Businesses
The city's semi-rural character means long yard lines exposed to settling and corrosion, plus outbuilding and pool-heater runs that deserve periodic testing. The apartment corridors add shared-meter and riser work, and the Milwaukee Avenue strip keeps commercial calls steady.

If you smell that telltale rotten-egg odor anywhere in your Prospect Heights home or business — basement, near the furnace, behind the range — treat it as real.

On Prospect Heights' big lots, electronic locating finds a buried-line leak without digging up half the lawn. 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 Prospect Heights Gas Problems We See
The local building mix produces a predictable set of issues:
- Leaking buried yard lines on large lots
- Shared risers and meter banks in Milwaukee Avenue apartment communities
- Outbuilding and pool-heater runs reaching corrosion age
- CSST fittings that were never properly tightened or bonded
- Failed flex connectors behind ranges and dryers after an appliance swap
- Undersized or improperly run lines added without a permit by a previous owner
Keeping Prospect Heights Gas Lines Safe
The most reliable way to avoid an emergency is a periodic leak-and-pressure check, particularly before heating season. For older Prospect Heights 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 Prospect Heights inspection. We handle the permit and the test as part of the job.
