Gas Line Services

Fast, Safe Gas Line Response

Many homes in Baton Rouge, LA and the surrounding areas in East Baton Rouge Parish use natural gas to power their appliances, but this odorless, colorless, and highly combustible gas can burst into flames if heated. It's also unsafe for humans and animals to inhale.

In fact, this gas is so dangerous that the smell of sulfur, or rotten eggs, is added to make it more noticeable. At Cajun Maintenance we provide fast response times so you can quickly return to your normal routine.

Warning Signs

What Are the Signs of a Gas Leak?

Being able to keep your home, your investments, and your family safe from a dangerous natural gas leak means knowing the warning signs and taking immediate action if you suspect there may be an issue.

The Smell of Rotten Eggs

Natural gas is odorless — this unpleasant, easy-to-identify smell is added specifically to make it easy to detect when a leak is present.

Hissing Sounds

As gas escapes your gas line, it will hiss. If you hear a hissing sound near a gas appliance or line, your line has likely been compromised.

Dying Vegetation

Natural gas will kill any vegetation it comes into contact with. A "dead spot" in your yard could point to an underground gas leak.

Emergency Response

What Should I Do If I Have a Gas Leak?

If you recognize any of the warning signs mentioned above, take these precautionary steps as soon as possible.

1

Evacuate your home as quickly as possible.

2

Don't turn on any lights, lamps, or appliances — a spark can ignite escaped gas.

3

Open windows if it's safe to do so on your way out, to encourage the gas to escape.

4

Don't start your car if it's parked close to your home.

5

Call the gas company from a safe distance to ensure your gas is turned off as quickly as possible.

6

Call Cajun Maintenance at 225-372-2444 for gas leak detection and repair services.

225-372-2444
Yes, always. Never try to confirm a leak yourself. Even a faint odor is worth treating seriously — leave the area, avoid sparks or open flames, and call the gas company and our team right away.
We prioritize gas leak calls and respond as fast as possible. Call 225-372-2444 immediately — but remember your safety comes first, so evacuate and call the gas company before anything else.
Yes. Our licensed team installs gas lines for stoves, water heaters, dryers, outdoor grills, and other appliances, always to code and with a full safety check when the job is complete.
Yes. Underground gas lines can develop leaks from age, corrosion, or ground shifting. A dead patch of grass or vegetation with no other clear cause is one of the signs we look for during an inspection.
A gas leak involves your natural gas line and is a safety emergency requiring immediate evacuation. A slab leak involves a water line running under your home's foundation — not dangerous in the same way, but it can cause serious water damage if left unaddressed. We handle both.
Once we've completed the repair, we test the line to confirm it's holding pressure and free of leaks before we consider the job done. We'll let you know it's safe to return and resume normal use of your gas appliances.
