Stoves and Ranges
Converting from electric to gas cooking, or adding a line for a new range, including the correct shutoff and connection.
We repair leaks, replace damaged lines, install new gas piping for appliances, perform pressure testing, and deliver code-compliant work with upfront pricing and inspection-ready results.
A gas leak is an emergency. If you smell gas, a rotten-egg or sulfur odor, hear hissing near a line or appliance, or feel lightheaded or nauseated, treat it as one.
Gas line repair is licensed work for good reason. There are no safe do-it-yourself steps for a gas leak, the right move is always to get out and call for help.

Gas lines fail at the points you would expect, corroded sections, worn or loose fittings, and aging appliance connections. We locate the fault, repair or replace the affected section, and pressure test the line to confirm it holds before we call it done. When a line is too corroded or outdated to repair safely, we replace it rather than patch it, because a gas line is not a place to cut corners. Every repair we make is tested and left inspection ready.
Every part of residential and light commercial gas line work, done licensed and to code.
Adding a gas appliance means running a new line sized correctly for it, and undersized lines are a common reason an appliance underperforms or a tankless water heater never reaches its rated output. We run new gas lines for the appliances people add most often.
Converting from electric to gas cooking, or adding a line for a new range, including the correct shutoff and connection.
A properly sized and connected line for a gas dryer, done to code with a safe shutoff.
The right line size matters most here, an undersized gas line is the top reason a tankless water heater cannot keep up. We size it to the unit.
Permanent outdoor and hearth gas lines so you are not swapping propane tanks, run safely and tested.
A reliable gas supply line for a standby generator, sized for the load.
Beyond the obvious smell of gas, watch for these, and call if you notice any of them.
Locating the exact leak is its own step, and we cover the detection side in depth on our leak detection service. On a gas line, we find it, repair it, and test it.
A gas line repair or installation is not finished until the line is pressure tested and, where required, inspected. We pressure test every line we work on to confirm it holds with no loss, which is how we verify there is no leak before gas flows again. For permitted work, we prepare the line for inspection and handle the paperwork. If you are buying or selling a home and need a gas line checked or certified, we can test the system and tell you straight what condition it is in.
Gas line installation and repair is permitted, inspected work in most cases, and that is not red tape, it is what keeps the line safe. An improperly sized, connected, or tested gas line is a fire and carbon monoxide risk, which is why this is one job you never want done off the books or by someone unlicensed.
We are licensed and insured in Pennsylvania, we pull the permits the work requires, and we test and document every line.
For landlords and home sales, that means code-compliant work with the paperwork to prove it.
Much of Harrisburg's housing predates 1950, and the gas lines in these homes show their age.
Older black iron pipe corrodes over decades, especially at threaded joints and where it runs through damp basements, which is where many leaks in city homes turn up.
Some homes have old, undersized lines that were fine for a single appliance but cannot support a modern tankless water heater or a second gas appliance someone has added.
Piecemeal additions over the years sometimes leave a patchwork of lines and capped stubs that should be checked.
We work in these homes regularly, know where old gas lines tend to fail, and test the whole run rather than just the section you called about.
Cost depends on the line, the fault, and whether it is a repair or a new run. A single repair or appliance line sits at the lower end, while a larger installation is quoted per project. We give a flat price in writing before we start, and the price always includes the pressure test that confirms the line is safe. The table below shows typical ranges so you know what to expect.
| Service | Typical cost in the Harrisburg area |
|---|---|
| Gas line repair | $150 to $800 |
| Gas leak location and diagnosis | $150 to $400 |
| New gas line run for an appliance | $250 to $800 |
| Gas line pressure test | $75 to $200 |
| Gas line installation, larger project | Quoted per project |
These are typical ranges, not quotes. Your final price depends on the line, the work, and what an older home turns up, and we put it in writing before any work starts. Gas line safety is never the place to cut corners, so we quote the repair that is actually safe, not the cheapest patch.
