Gas line work isn’t a do-it-yourself job. A small mistake can cause a leak, carbon monoxide problems or a fire.

If You Smell Gas
Leave the building right away. Don’t flip light switches, use your phone inside or start a car in the garage. Once you’re outside and at a safe distance, call SoCalGas or 911. After the utility has made the area safe and shut off the gas, call us to find and repair the leak so service can be restored.
Gas Leak Detection and Repair
Not every gas leak announces itself with a strong smell. Other signs include a hissing sound near a line or appliance, dead patches of grass over a buried line, a gas bill that’s higher than normal, or a pilot light that keeps going out. We use electronic gas detectors and pressure testing to find leaks in walls, under floors, in the yard and at appliance connections. Most leaks come from corroded pipe, loose fittings or old flexible connectors, and many can be repaired the same day.
Gas Line Replacement
Older homes in our area often have original black iron gas piping, and buried sections can corrode over the years. When a line has multiple leaks or has corroded badly, replacing that run is safer and more reliable than patching it. We pull permits when required and pressure test the system before the gas is turned back on.
New Gas Line Installation
We run new gas lines for kitchen ranges and cooktops, gas dryers, tankless and tank water heaters, outdoor kitchens and BBQs, fire pits and fire tables, pool and spa heaters, and patio heaters. Before we start, we check that your meter and existing piping can carry the added load. Adding a big appliance like a tankless water heater or a pool heater sometimes means upsizing the line, and it’s better to find that out at the planning stage than after installation.
Earthquake Shutoff Valves
An automatic seismic gas shutoff valve closes the gas supply during a strong earthquake, which reduces the risk of fire from broken lines. Some cities require them when a home is sold or remodeled. We install and replace these valves and can tell you whether your city requires one.
Gas Line FAQs
Most new gas lines and replacements require a permit and inspection. We handle the permit process for you.
A simple appliance hookup is often done in a few hours. Longer runs to outdoor kitchens or pool equipment may take a day or more, depending on trenching.
