.. I hate to ask, but did you sign up for the 'gas line service' insurance that most gas companies offer ?
We had a similar situation- my father in law died after paying into the insurance plan for 20 years. We went to change the gas account on the house to our names. They did a 'test' and said that the line between their valve and the house was leaking. OK, I said- he paid on the insurance for 20 years, do it.
Sorry. This is YOUR account now. No claims at the start.
We paid $4,500 for a 150 foot line from the street valve to the house.
