Signs You Have a Gas Line Problem
Do not ignore these signs. Leave the building and call us immediately if you notice:
- A rotten egg or sulfur smell inside or outside your home
- A hissing sound near a gas appliance or the line running to your meter
- Dead vegetation in a line or stripe across your yard (underground leak)
- Unexplained increase in your gas bill
- Bubbles in standing water near the gas meter
- Appliance pilot lights that won't stay lit
- Feeling dizzy, nauseous, or lightheaded near gas appliances
If you suspect a gas leak: leave immediately, don't flip light switches, call your gas company to shut off service, then call us.
Our Gas Line Services
Gas Leak Detection & Repair
We use pressure testing and gas detectors to locate leaks — even slow ones that don't produce a strong smell. Once found, we isolate the section, repair or replace it, and pressure-test again before restoring service.
Gas Line Installation
Adding a gas range, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, generator, or whole-home generator? We plan the run, pull the required permits, install the line, and schedule the inspection. No cutting corners on permits — it protects your home and your insurance.
Appliance Connection & Hookup
Moving a dryer to a new location, adding a gas fireplace insert, or connecting a new range? We make the final connection with proper shutoff valves and test for leaks before leaving.
Gas Line Rerouting
Remodeling and need to move a line? We reroute existing gas lines to accommodate new kitchen layouts, finished basements, or room additions.
Gas Pressure Testing
Before you sell your home or after any renovation, a pressure test documents that your gas lines are leak-free. Required by most home inspectors.
Why Hire a Licensed Plumber for Gas Work?
In Tennessee, gas line work requires a licensed plumber or contractor. An unlicensed repair can void your homeowner's insurance and create liability if something goes wrong. Our license number is on every invoice.
Beyond licensing: gas work has a zero-error tolerance. We follow code, we pull permits when required, and we do not leave until the system is tested and safe.
Service Area
We handle gas line work throughout Knox County and surrounding areas including Farragut, Powell, Hardin Valley, Halls, Maryville, Alcoa, Oak Ridge, Seymour, Lenoir City, and Louisville.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does gas line repair cost in Knoxville?
Minor repairs — a fitting, a valve, a short section of line — typically run $150–$400. Rerouting a line or running a new line from the meter can range from $500–$2,000+ depending on distance and whether trenching is required. We give you a written estimate before any work begins.
Do I need a permit for a new gas line in Knoxville?
Yes. Any new gas line installation in Knox County requires a permit and inspection. We handle the permit process for you.
How do I know if my gas line is leaking slowly?
A slow leak may not smell strong enough to notice. Signs include a higher-than-normal gas bill, dead grass in a line across your yard, or appliances that run less efficiently. A pressure test is the only definitive way to check — we can do this for you.
Can you work on natural gas and propane lines?
Yes. We work on both natural gas and liquid propane (LP) systems.
