Gas Lines
New gas line installation and repair for Metro Detroit homes and businesses. Permitted where required, pressure-tested, and inspector-approved.
Gas Line Services
New Gas Line Installation
We run new gas lines from the meter to any appliance location. Black iron or CSST — we choose the right material for the application.
Gas Line Repair
Leak detection, pipe repair, and fitting replacement. Every repair is pressure-tested before we leave.
Appliance Connection
We connect and startup any gas appliance: ranges, dryers, water heaters, fireplaces, generators, and outdoor grills.
Gas Service Sizing
We calculate the BTU demand of all connected appliances and verify your service can handle the load before you buy a new appliance.
Permit & Inspection
We pull the permit on every gas line job and coordinate the inspection. No exceptions — a permitted gas line is the only gas line.
Gas Shutoff Valve Installation
Dedicated shutoff valves for every appliance. We install the correct valve type for the application and verify operation before we leave.
Adding a Gas Appliance?
We Run Lines For
Ranges & Ovens
Most common gas line job. We run the line, install the shutoff, and connect the appliance.
Dryers
Gas dryers are more efficient than electric. We run the line and install the proper connector.
Generators
Whole-home standby generators require a dedicated gas line sized for the generator's BTU demand.
Fireplaces & Gas Logs
Gas inserts and log sets require a dedicated line with a key valve or remote shutoff.
Outdoor Kitchens & Grills
Permanent outdoor gas connections for built-in grills, side burners, and pizza ovens.
Pool & Spa Heaters
High-BTU pool heaters require a properly sized gas line. We calculate the demand and size the line correctly.
Tankless Water Heaters
High-efficiency tankless units often require a larger gas line than the existing tank unit. We assess and upgrade as needed.
Furnaces & Boilers
Furnace replacements often require gas line assessment. We verify the existing line is properly sized for the new unit.
How a Gas Line Job Works
Assess
We calculate the BTU demand of the new appliance and verify your existing service can handle it. If an upgrade is needed, we tell you upfront.
Permit
We pull the permit before we start. No exceptions. A permitted gas line is the only gas line.
Install
We run the line in the right material for the application, install the shutoff valve, and connect the appliance.
Test & Inspect
Every gas line is pressure-tested before we leave. We schedule the inspection and coordinate with the inspector.
Gas Leak Safety
If you smell rotten eggs, hear a hissing sound near a gas line or appliance, or notice dead vegetation over an underground gas line, you may have a gas leak.

Common Questions
Do I need a permit for a gas line?
It depends on the scope of work and your municipality. New gas line installations and major extensions typically require a permit. Minor repairs and appliance reconnections often do not. We assess each job and pull a permit when one is required — and we handle all the paperwork when we do.
What is the difference between black iron and CSST?
Black iron pipe is threaded steel — the traditional material for gas distribution. CSST (corrugated stainless steel tubing) is flexible and faster to install in tight spaces. Both are code-compliant; we choose the right material for each application.
How do I know if I have a gas leak?
The smell of rotten eggs (the odorant added to natural gas), a hissing sound near a gas line or appliance, or dead vegetation over an underground gas line. If you suspect a gas leak, leave the building immediately and call 911. Then call us.
Can my existing gas service handle a new appliance?
Maybe. We calculate the BTU demand of all connected appliances and compare it to your service capacity. If the service is undersized, we'll tell you what's needed before you buy the appliance.
How long does a gas line installation take?
A single appliance connection typically takes 2 to 4 hours. A new line run from the meter to a new location takes 4 to 8 hours depending on distance and access. We give you a time estimate before we start.
What appliances can you run a gas line to?
Any gas appliance: ranges, ovens, dryers, water heaters, furnaces, fireplaces (gas logs and inserts), outdoor grills, generators, pool heaters, and outdoor kitchens. We've done them all.
