What is Gas Line Plumbing?
Gas line plumbing encompasses the installation, repair, maintenance, and inspection of pipes that deliver natural gas or propane to your home's appliances. Unlike water plumbing, gas line work is highly regulated due to the inherent dangers of gas leaks – from explosion risks to carbon monoxide poisoning. That's why Texas law requires specific licensing for gas line work, and why you should never trust this critical job to an unlicensed handyman.
In Tyler TX and throughout East Texas, natural gas powers many homes – heating water heaters, furnaces, stoves, dryers, and fireplaces. Proper gas line installation ensures safe, efficient delivery to each appliance, while regular inspection and maintenance prevent dangerous leaks. Hester Plumbing's licensed gas plumbers understand both the technical requirements and local codes that govern gas line work in our area.

Warning Signs of Gas Line Problems
Recognizing gas leak symptoms early can save lives. If you notice any of these signs, don't ignore them – call a licensed gas plumber immediately.
Rotten Egg Smell
Mercaptan is added to natural gas specifically so leaks can be detected by smell.
Hissing Sounds
A hissing or whistling noise near gas lines or appliances indicates escaping gas.
Dead Plants
Vegetation dying near outdoor gas lines suggests an underground leak.
Higher Bills
Unexplained increases in gas bills often indicate a leak somewhere in the system.
