WHAT IS EMERGENCY GAS ESCAPE REPAIR?
Making safe and repairing identified gas-related faults.
Emergency gas escape repair is the repair of a gas-related fault after a suspected or confirmed gas leak has been identified and the property has been made safe. The issue may involve internal pipework, fittings, valves, boiler connections, cookers, hobs or another domestic gas appliance.
Gas work must never be treated as DIY. We inspect the affected installation, explain the fault and only carry out repair work where it is safe and appropriate.
WHAT TO DO FIRST
Follow emergency gas-safety steps before seeking repair.
Avoid ignition
Do not smoke, use flames or operate electrical switches.
Turn off gas if safe
Use the emergency control valve only if safe and you know how.
Call 0800 111 999
Contact the National Gas Emergency Service immediately.
WHEN FOLLOW-UP REPAIR MAY BE NEEDED
Arrange a Gas Safe repair inspection after the emergency is controlled.
The emergency service has turned off the gas supply
A gas leak has been identified after the meter
You were advised to contact a Gas Safe engineer
A boiler has been isolated due to a gas concern
A cooker or hob has been disconnected
A gas pipe or fitting is damaged
A landlord gas-safety check has found a fault
You need follow-up work after an emergency callout
COMMON CAUSES
Gas escapes can be linked to pipework, fittings or appliances.
Pipework damage
Damaged, corroded or disturbed internal gas pipework may need urgent professional attention.
Loose fittings or joints
Connections, valves and fittings can become damaged, worn or unsuitable over time.
Appliance connection faults
Boilers, cookers and hobs can develop concerns around their gas connection points.
Unsafe previous work
Poor installation, accidental damage or incorrectly capped supplies can create safety concerns.
OUR SAFETY-FIRST APPROACH
What suitable follow-up gas repair can involve.
The scope depends on the source of the fault, the condition of the installation and whether the supply has already been isolated.
Initial safety confirmation
Confirming that active emergency safety steps have already been completed.
Gas-system inspection
Inspecting the relevant pipework, appliance connection, fitting or valve.
Pipework repair advice
Explaining suitable repair or replacement where internal pipework is affected.
Appliance-connection repair
Assessing gas connections around boilers, cookers and hobs.
Isolation or capping advice
Explaining when an appliance or pipe section must remain isolated until repaired.
Testing after repair
Completing suitable checks before advising that repaired areas are safe to use.
Clear handover
Explaining the fault, completed work and any future safety recommendations.
AFTER THE EMERGENCY SERVICE ATTENDS
Do not turn the gas back on yourself.
The emergency service may isolate the supply, cap part of the installation or advise that a Gas Safe engineer is required. Progas can help determine why this happened and explain what needs to be repaired before normal gas use can resume.
BOILER GAS CONNECTIONS
Inspection and appropriate repair support around boilers.
A boiler-related concern may involve the gas connection, nearby pipework, valves or fittings. We inspect the affected area and explain the safest next step.
COOKERS & HOBS
Safe follow-up support for gas-appliance connections.
If a cooker or hob connection is unsafe, the appliance may need to remain disconnected until the appropriate repair or replacement is completed.
GAS PIPEWORK REPAIRS
Damaged or unsafe gas pipework needs qualified attention.
Internal gas pipework must be secure, correctly fitted and safe. We can inspect suitable faults involving damaged pipe sections, loose fittings, corrosion, unsafe capped pipes or pipework affected by building work.
If building or DIY work has disturbed a gas pipe, call 0800 111 999 first.
LANDLORDS & PROPERTY MANAGERS
Qualified support when a tenant reports a gas concern.
Landlords should act quickly when a tenant reports a gas smell or an appliance is made unsafe. After emergency steps have been followed, Progas can support follow-up inspection, gas-pipework repairs, appliance checks, CP12-related work and clear repair recommendations.
Prompt action helps protect tenants and supports a safe rental property.

EMERGENCY GAS ESCAPE REPAIR FAQs
Common questions
What should I do if I smell gas?
Open doors and windows, avoid flames and electrical switches, leave if necessary and call the National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 immediately.
Should I call Progas before 0800 111 999?
No. For an active gas smell or suspected live leak, call 0800 111 999 first. Contact Progas after the property has been made safe.
What happens if my gas supply has been turned off?
Do not turn it back on yourself. A Gas Safe engineer may need to inspect the system and complete required repairs before gas can safely be used again.
Can you repair gas pipework?
We can inspect and repair suitable domestic gas-pipework faults where it is safe and appropriate to do so.
Is gas escape finding the same as emergency gas repair?
No. Finding identifies the likely source of the issue; repair addresses the identified fault after the situation is safe.
