Safety First — Our Approach to Gas Line Work

Gas line work carries inherent risks that make professional installation non-negotiable. Improper connections, incorrect pipe sizing, or inadequate pressure testing can result in gas leaks that endanger your family and property. Every gas line installation or repair we perform follows strict safety protocols: proper material selection, code-compliant installation, thorough pressure testing at every joint and connection, and professional leak testing before the gas is turned on. We do not cut corners on gas line safety.

New Gas Line Installation

We install gas lines for stoves, ranges, cooktops, gas dryers, water heaters, tankless water heaters, fireplaces, outdoor grills and kitchens, fire pits, pool and spa heaters, and patio heaters. Each installation is sized for the BTU requirements of your appliance and the total load on your gas system. We handle the full process including permits, installation, pressure testing, and inspection coordination.

Gas Leak Detection and Repair

If you smell the distinctive rotten egg odor of natural gas or hear a hissing sound near a gas connection, you may have a gas leak. Evacuate the area, avoid turning any electrical switches on or off, and call your gas utility from outside. Once the utility has cleared the immediate danger, call us to locate and repair the leak. We use gas detection equipment to pinpoint leak locations and make permanent repairs that pass inspection.

Outdoor Gas Line Services

Outdoor living is a major part of Newport Beach lifestyle, and many homeowners want gas connections for built-in grills, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and patio heaters. We run gas lines from your meter or main supply to outdoor locations, properly sized and protected for exterior exposure. All outdoor gas installations include proper shutoff valves and meet code requirements for outdoor gas piping.

Permits and Code Compliance

Gas line installations and modifications in Newport Beach require permits and inspections from the local building department. We handle the permit application, schedule the inspection, and ensure all work meets current California gas code requirements. This protects you legally and ensures your gas system is safe and properly documented for insurance and resale purposes.
