Sewer Repair
Tree roots, cracked pipe and repeat backups in the line from your house to the street.
A gas smell near the furnace, a red tag from the utility or an old connector behind the range. Our licensed plumbers find gas leaks, repair the piping and pressure-test it before we leave. From our office on Esplanade Drive.

In this order:
Don't stop to open windows or grab things.
Switches, phones and garage door openers can spark.
Nicor Gas or 911, from the street.
We'll find and repair the leak.
Call us when:
Water heater, furnace, range or dryer.
Service stays off until the piping is repaired and tested.
Outdoor kitchens and fire pits strain older layouts.
Underground lines can leak out of sight.
If you suspect a small leak or the utility shut off service, we find the source with electronic detectors and soap tests, then pressure-test the system to confirm it's sealed.
In newer homes, most leaks are at appliance connectors, flexible lines and fittings added after construction. Once repaired, we test the whole system so service can be restored.
More than half of Algonquin homes were built between 1990 and 2009, and many gas systems have been added to.
Patio gas lines are popular here. A buried line that wasn't installed right can leak.
Many 1990s and 2000s homes use flexible gas tubing in places. It needs proper bonding and protection.
Old connectors from the original range or dryer should be replaced when the appliance is.
Gas work done right, then tested.
Gas line work should be done by a licensed pro. Ours are licensed and trained for it.
We find it, then quote it.
Before the gas comes back on.

"Communication, information and installation went great. Price was very competitive. Shane explained everything extremely well and Alex installed hot water tank beautifully. Shortly after Alex left a gas leak from an old valve on the piping to the tank occurred and needed to be replaced, Alex came back same night and fixed it. This is a 5-Star company."
"We had a new gas pipe installed that ws located to sevice our dryer in the basement on July 14th. The Technician was friendly and did a great job with the installation. He cleaned up after himself, and the pricing was competative."
"Andrew and Ty did a great job fixing and replacing some old natural gas pipe that had a recurring leak. Punctual, efficient, kept me informed, cleaned up well after. I highly recommend."

Yes.
Yes. We pressure-test buried lines to grills, fire pits and pool heaters and find leaks if there are any.
It's safe when installed and bonded correctly.
Corrugated stainless steel tubing is common in newer homes. It's safe when it's installed, protected and bonded correctly. We can check yours.
The utility up to the meter, a licensed plumber after it.
Nicor Gas handles the line up to and including the meter. Everything after it is the homeowner's and should be repaired by a licensed plumber.
It depends on the leak and the line. The price comes first.
It depends on where the leak is and how much pipe needs work. We quote a flat rate before we start.
