Don’t give up. There is definitely a leak.
You were right! Went outside today and the smell was back and strong as ever. I walked around the area for a bit and was able to pinpoint that it was strongest near where the water co. had dug their hole a couple weeks back. Called Washington Gas again, and the tech that came out this time quickly escalated the ticket. Within a couple hours a crew was out ripping up the street to do repairs. They are just now wrapping up after about 6-7 hours of work. -OP
