Gas Line Work

What Gas Line Service Covers

PG&E owns the gas line up to and including the meter. Everything after the meter, the piping that runs through your walls, attic, crawlspace or yard to each appliance, belongs to the property owner. That is the piping we repair, replace and extend.

Most new gas line work comes from a change in the house: switching from an electric range to gas, adding a gas dryer, moving to a tankless water heater that needs more gas, or running a line to an outdoor kitchen, BBQ or fire pit. Repairs usually involve older black iron pipe that has corroded where it runs underground or through damp areas, failed flexible connectors, or leaking fittings.

Gas work is not the place to guess on sizing. A line that is too small starves the appliances at the end of it, so we size each run to the total load on the system, not just the new appliance.

How We Approach It

Our Gas Line Approach

📐

Sized to the Whole Load

We add up every gas appliance on the system and size each run so all of them get full supply at once.

🧪

Pressure Testing

New and repaired piping is pressure tested before it is put into service, and we check every connection for leaks.

📋

Permits Where Required

Gas piping work generally requires a permit and inspection. Where it does, we handle both.

🛑

Shutoff Valves

Each appliance gets an accessible shutoff valve, so it can be serviced without shutting off the whole house.

🌎

Seismic Safety

While we are working on the system, we can add an earthquake gas shutoff valve at the meter.

🔁

Relighting and Startup

We restore gas, relight pilots and confirm each appliance fires correctly before we leave.

Our Process

How a Gas Line Job Works

Assess the System

We look at the meter, the existing piping, and every appliance on the line, and plan the route for new work.

Written Quote

You get the full price in writing, including the permit and pressure test.

Permit

Where required, we pull the permit before work begins.

Install or Repair

We shut off the gas, complete the piping work and install shutoff valves at each appliance.

Test, Inspect and Relight

We pressure test the line, have it inspected where required, restore gas and relight every appliance.

Transparent Pricing

Gas Line Cost Factors in Stockton

Gas line pricing depends mostly on the length and route of the run. What moves the price:

Length of the run, and whether it goes through an attic, crawlspace, wall or underground.
Pipe size, based on the total gas load on the system.
Trenching, for outdoor lines to a BBQ, fire pit or detached structure.
Number of connections, and shutoff valves needed.
Permit and inspection requirements for the work.

Written quote before work begins. We quote after seeing the meter, the route and the appliances.

Questions Answered

Gas Line Repair & Installation Stockton CA, FAQ

What should I do if I smell gas?

Leave the building right away without switching lights or appliances on or off, and call PG&E at 1-800-743-5000 or 911 from outside. Once the utility has made the situation safe, we can locate and repair the leak on your side of the meter.

Who is responsible for the gas line to my house?

PG&E is responsible for the gas line up to and including the meter. The piping after the meter, which runs to your appliances, is the property owner's responsibility. That is the piping we repair and install.

Can you run a gas line for a new stove or dryer?

Yes. We run new lines for gas ranges, cooktops, dryers and water heaters, sized to the total gas load in the house and finished with a shutoff valve at the appliance.

Can you install a gas line to my BBQ or fire pit?

Yes. Outdoor gas lines to built-in BBQs, outdoor kitchens and fire pits are a common job. Underground runs use pipe rated for burial and are pressure tested before use.

Do I need a permit for gas line work in Stockton?

New gas piping and most gas line repairs generally require a permit and inspection. Where one is required, we pull it and schedule the inspection as part of the job.

How do you test a gas line?

New and repaired piping is pressurized and held for a set period to confirm it does not lose pressure, and every fitting is checked for leaks before gas is restored.

Why is my gas appliance not getting enough gas?

A common cause is a gas line too small for the total load, especially after adding a tankless water heater or another appliance. We check the line size and pressure and upsize it if needed.
