Gas Line Repair & Installation in Tigard, Oregon
Gas line work requires a licensed plumber, proper permits, and pressure testing before the gas goes back on. True Flow Plumbing handles gas line repair, new line runs, and appliance connections throughout Tigard — safely, permitted, and inspected.
Gas Line Service in Tigard
Tigard's 1970s and 1980s homes were built during an era when gas was standard for heating, cooking, and water heating — which means most homes have gas infrastructure that is now 40–50 years old. We repair aging gas connections to furnaces, water heaters, and ranges; run new lines for appliance additions; and perform the gas supply upgrades required for tankless water heater conversions. All gas work is permitted and inspected.
🔧 Gas Leak Repair
If you smell gas, leave the house and call NW Natural first. Once the supply is shut off, we locate the source of the leak, repair or replace the affected section, pressure-test the system, and coordinate the gas-on inspection.
🍳 New Gas Line Runs
Adding gas service to a kitchen range, dryer, fireplace, or outdoor appliance where there's no existing line — we run the line, pull the permit, and schedule the inspection.
🔥 Appliance Connections
Connecting a new gas range, dryer, water heater, or fireplace insert to an existing gas supply — flexible connector installation and shutoff valve placement.
📈 Gas Supply Upgrades
Tankless water heaters and high-BTU ranges often require larger gas supply lines than what existing infrastructure can deliver. We upgrade the supply line to meet the demand safely.
🏠 Aging Line Replacement
Older Tigard homes have gas lines that have been in the ground for decades — corroded fittings, outdated flexible connectors, and undersized supply lines are all worth addressing proactively.
📋 Pressure Testing
All gas line work is pressure-tested before the system is re-pressurized with gas — this is non-negotiable and required by code. We never skip this step.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I have a gas leak in my Tigard home?
Natural gas has a sulfur (rotten egg) smell added specifically so leaks can be detected. If you smell gas, leave the house immediately — don't flip any switches or use your phone inside. Once outside, call your gas utility (NW Natural) to shut off the supply, then call us to locate and repair the leak. Never try to find or fix a gas leak yourself.
Do you need a permit for gas line work in Tigard?
Yes — any gas line work beyond connecting a flexible appliance connector requires a permit in Tigard and throughout Oregon. We pull the permit, do the work, and schedule the inspection. The permit process protects you — it ensures the work is pressure-tested and inspected by the city before gas is turned back on.
Can you add a gas line for a new appliance in Tigard?
Yes. Running a new gas line for a range, dryer, tankless water heater, fireplace, generator, or outdoor grill is a common job we do in Tigard. We assess your existing gas supply pressure and pipe size to confirm it can support the new load — some appliances, particularly whole-home tankless water heaters, require a supply line upgrade to meet the BTU demand.
