Gas leaks generally occur because of bad pipes. In many instances, pipes can deteriorate with age and that extends to its sealants and valves. Excessive corrosion is commonly found in older piping and that can lead to leaks. Pipes that were used in older model homes are also outdated as new types of piping are manufactured with better precision. That is why many gas leaks are fixed with the installation of new piping.
