What to do if you smell gas

Six things to do if you smell gas in the property:

• DO NOT smoke or light matches
• DO NOT turn electrical switches on or off
• DO open doors and windows
• DO turn off the meter at the control valve (UNLESS the smell of gas and the meter are in the cellar, as often this will need a light to be turned on)
• DO call the free 24 hour National Gas Emergency Service on 0800 111 999 whether the smell is inside or outside the property. Don't wait to call - do it straight away.
• DO call The Property Partnership after you have called the National Gas Emergency Service.
