Gas Line Installation & Repair In Fort Myers, FL
New gas line runs for appliances, leak repair, and gas line relocation, handled by licensed technicians with safety testing on every job.
What We Handle
Gas line calls in Fort Myers range from installing a new line for a range, dryer, or pool heater, to repairing an aging line showing corrosion, to relocating a line during a kitchen or outdoor kitchen remodel. Homes converting from electric to gas appliances, or adding a whole-home generator, are a common source of new-line installation calls, especially as generator demand has grown given the area's real hurricane season power outage risk. Any suspected gas leak is treated as a safety-first call, not a routine repair, and is prioritized accordingly. Older homes with original steel gas piping are also more likely to need a line evaluated for corrosion before adding a new appliance.
When To Call
Smell Of Gas
A sulfur or rotten-egg smell near an appliance or line is a safety issue and should be reported immediately.
Hissing Sound Near A Line
An audible hiss near a gas connection or appliance line warrants an immediate inspection.
Appliance Not Igniting Properly
Inconsistent flame or ignition trouble can point to a line or pressure issue rather than the appliance itself.
New Appliance Or Generator Install
Adding a gas range, pool heater, or standby generator often requires a new dedicated line run.

What Gas Line Work Costs
Upfront price confirmed after inspection.
Gas line work is not something homeowner's insurance typically covers as routine maintenance, though a sudden failure causing damage is sometimes treated differently. We'll tell you honestly which category a repair falls into. Insurance aside, a periodic inspection of older gas piping is a reasonable precaution, similar to how aging water pipe eventually warrants a closer look even before anything fails outright.
What To Do If You Smell Gas
- Leave the area immediately if you smell gas strongly. Do not operate light switches, appliances, or anything that could create a spark.
- Once safely away from the property, call your gas utility's emergency line as well as us, since utility involvement is standard practice for a suspected leak and helps confirm the source quickly.
- For a new appliance or generator install, have the appliance's BTU rating available when you call, since it affects the line sizing needed.
- If a pilot light keeps going out on an existing appliance, mention that too, since it can sometimes point to a gas supply issue rather than the appliance itself.
