A gas leak in your home is more than just a minor inconvenience-it can pose serious health risks, cause significant property damage, and even result in dangerous explosions. That’s why gas leak detection is a critical component of any home inspection, whether you're buying, selling, or simply ensuring your home is safe. Our gas leak detection service provides a thorough and professional examination to detect any signs of a gas leak, ensuring peace of mind for you and your loved ones. THIS IS NOT A STANDARD PART OF HOME INSPECTIONS IN NC/SC.

Why Should You Consider Gas Leak Detection?

Gas leaks can be silent and undetectable without the right tools and expertise. Even small, slow leaks can have long-term consequences, from health issues like headaches, dizziness, and nausea to potential fire hazards. In fact, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), gas leaks are responsible for nearly 20% of all home fires in the U.S. each year.
