Smell Gas? Do This First

Natural gas has a rotten egg smell added so you can tell when it leaks. If you smell it:

  1. Leave the house right away. Take everyone with you, including pets.
  2. Don't touch light switches, outlets, phones or anything that could spark. Don't start a car in the garage.
  3. Don't try to find the leak yourself.
  4. Once you're outside, call 911 or NW Natural's emergency line.
  5. After NW Natural says it's safe, call us to find and repair the leak on your side of the meter.

What We Do

Gas Line Installers and Gas Line Repair Services in Tigard

New Gas Lines for Appliances

Switching to a gas range, adding a gas dryer or moving an appliance to a new spot. We run a new line, add a shutoff valve and connect the appliance safely.

BBQ, Outdoor Kitchen and Fire Pit Gas Lines

Tired of swapping propane tanks? We run natural gas lines to grills, outdoor kitchens, fire pits and patio heaters so you never run out mid cookout.

Gas Fireplace and Insert Lines

Adding a gas fireplace or insert, or your gas fireplace won't light. We install new lines and check the gas supply when a fireplace stops working.

Water Heater and Tankless Gas Lines

Tankless water heaters need a lot more gas than a tank. Many Tigard homes need a larger gas line before a tankless unit will work right. We size and install the line so your new heater runs at full power.

Generator Gas Lines

Connect a standby generator to natural gas so it runs through a power outage without refueling.

Gas Leak Detection and Repair

We use gas detectors and pressure tests to find leaks in your home's gas piping, then repair the damaged pipe, fitting or connector.

Gas Line Pressure Testing and Inspection

Buying or selling a home, finishing a remodel or just want peace of mind? We pressure test your gas system and tell you what we find.

Shutoff Valves and Flex Connectors

Old appliance connectors and stiff shutoff valves are a common leak point. We replace worn connectors and valves with new, code approved parts.

Capping Old Gas Lines

Switching an appliance from gas to electric? We safely cap and remove gas lines you no longer use.

Warning Signs

Signs of a Gas Line Problem

A rotten egg smell

The most common sign of a gas leak, near an appliance, the meter or outside the house.

A hissing or whistling sound

Gas escaping from a pipe or fitting can make a hiss you can hear near the line.

Dead grass or plants over a buried line

A leaking underground gas line can kill grass and plants in a strip or patch.

Bubbles in standing water

Bubbles rising in a puddle or wet soil near a gas line can mean gas is escaping.

Yellow or orange burner flames

Gas burners should burn blue. A lazy yellow or orange flame can mean a supply or burner problem.

Your gas bill jumped

A slow leak can raise your bill even when you're using the same appliances.

New Line Planning

What Goes Into a New Gas Line

A gas line isn't just a pipe from point A to point B. Here's what we handle so it's safe and passes inspection.

Sizing the line

We add up everything on your system so the new line is big enough. An undersized line is the main reason new tankless heaters and outdoor kitchens don't work right.

Planning the route

We find the safest, cleanest path through the crawl space, garage, attic or yard.

Permit and inspection

New gas lines in Oregon need a permit and an inspection. We pull the permit and schedule the inspection.

Call 811 before digging

For buried lines in the yard, Oregon law requires utility locates before anyone digs. We make sure lines are marked first.

Pressure test

Before any appliance is connected, we pressure test the new line to make sure it holds.

Local Knowledge

Gas Lines in Tigard: What to Know

NW Natural vs. your gas line

NW Natural supplies natural gas to Tigard homes. NW Natural is responsible for the gas line up to and including your meter. Everything after the meter — including the pipes in your house and the lines to your appliances — belongs to you. That's the part we install and repair.

Permits are required

In Oregon, new gas piping needs a permit and an inspection. A permitted job protects your family and makes things easier when you sell your home.

Call 811 before you dig

Planning a garden, fence or patio? Oregon law requires a utility locate before digging. Buried gas lines can be shallower than people think.

Tankless upgrades need bigger lines

More Tigard homeowners are switching to tankless water heaters. Most need a larger gas line than the old tank used. Without it, the heater can't keep up and may show error codes. See our water heater installation service.

Old appliance connectors

Many older Tigard homes still have old flexible connectors behind ranges, dryers and water heaters. Some older uncoated brass connectors can crack over time. If your appliance connector is decades old, it's worth replacing.
