Gas Line Installation and Repair
Gas work demands strict safety, proper training, and careful attention to detail. Our team follows all required state and local codes, uses approved materials, and follows industry-standard testing procedures before any gas line goes into service. We are certified to install and repair gas piping in Pennsylvania, and every job includes pressure testing to confirm the system is sealed, safe, and ready to use.
Ignoring gas line problems can lead to dangerous leaks, fires, or carbon monoxide issues. Small cracks or loose fittings do not stay small for long, especially in older homes or lines exposed to shifting soil. We prevent disasters by diagnosing the problem quickly, isolating the leak, replacing damaged sections, and confirming the system is safe before restoring service.
Upgrading or adding a gas line can make your home more efficient and convenient. Many customers add lines for gas ranges, outdoor grills, fireplaces, or high-efficiency water heaters. New piping improves flow, reduces strain on older lines, and supports equipment that uses less energy over time.
Common Causes of Gas Line Leaks
Most leaks come from aging pipes, corrosion, loose fittings, improper installations, or damage from digging. Even a slight shift in the ground can stress old joints.
What To Do If You Suspect a Gas Leak
If you smell gas or hear hissing, leave the home immediately and call your gas provider or emergency services. Do not turn lights on or off, and do not try to find the leak yourself. Once the area is safe, we can inspect, repair, and test the system.
Gas Line Inspection Frequency
Gas lines should be inspected every few years, especially in older homes. Routine checks help catch small issues before they become dangerous.
