Gas Repipe Services for Residential Homes
A failing gas line is a serious safety concern that should never be ignored. Aging gas piping, corrosion, improper installation, or ground movement can lead to leaks, pressure loss, and hazardous conditions. We provide complete gas repipe services to replace outdated or damaged gas lines with modern, code compliant piping systems designed for long term safety and performance.
Our gas repipe work is performed using approved materials and methods that meet current local and state code requirements.
When a Gas Repipe Is Necessary
Gas repiping is often recommended when existing gas lines are no longer safe or reliable. Spot repairs may temporarily address a leak, but in older systems, additional failures are common.
- Recurring gas leaks or odor
- Aging or corroded gas piping
- Undersized gas lines affecting appliance performance
- Failed pressure tests
- Improper or non code compliant installations
- Home renovations or appliance upgrades requiring higher gas demand
Gas Repipe Options and Materials
Polyethylene Gas Pipe
Polyethylene gas pipe is commonly used for underground gas line installations. It is flexible, corrosion resistant, and ideal for exterior gas services running from the meter to the structure. Polyethylene pipe reduces the risk of future underground leaks caused by soil conditions or corrosion.
Black Iron Gas Pipe
Black iron pipe is a traditional and widely accepted material for interior gas lines. It is strong, durable, and suitable for exposed installations. We install threaded black iron piping with proper support and sealing to ensure safe gas delivery.
Press Connection Gas Piping
Press connection gas piping systems provide secure, leak resistant joints without traditional threading. These systems allow for precise installation in tight spaces and reduce installation time while maintaining code compliance.
TracPipe Gas Piping System
TracPipe is a flexible stainless steel gas piping system designed for modern residential gas distribution. It allows for fewer fittings, smoother routing, and reduced potential leak points. TracPipe is commonly used for interior gas repipes and appliance connections.
Gas Repipe for Slab and Raised Foundation Homes
We perform gas repipes for both slab foundation and raised foundation homes. Underground gas lines are replaced using approved polyethylene piping, while interior gas distribution is installed using black iron, press systems, or TracPipe depending on layout and application.
Each gas repipe is designed to meet the specific demands of the home and the connected appliances.
Our Gas Repipe Process
- Gas system inspection and leak detection
- Evaluation of existing piping and appliance demand
- Design of a properly sized gas piping layout
- Removal or abandonment of unsafe gas lines
- Installation of new approved gas piping
- Pressure testing and system verification
- Final inspection and safe restoration of gas service
Why Homeowners Choose to Repipe Gas Lines
Older gas systems often fail one section at a time. Repairing a single leak does not prevent future issues elsewhere in the system. Many homeowners choose to repipe their gas lines to eliminate ongoing safety concerns, improve appliance performance, and meet modern code standards.
A properly installed gas repipe provides peace of mind and long term reliability.
Gas Repipe Cost Considerations
The cost of a gas repipe depends on pipe length, number of appliances, material selection, accessibility, and foundation type. Underground installations and complex appliance layouts may require additional labor. We provide clear explanations and options after inspection so homeowners can make informed decisions.
Safe and Reliable Gas Line Replacement
If your home has aging gas lines, recurring leaks, or requires upgrades for new appliances, a gas repipe may be the safest solution. Professional installation and proper testing are critical for protecting your home and family.
