About Our Gas Line Services
Gas powers many essential parts of your household—from furnaces and stovetops to water heaters and outdoor appliances. These systems typically operate smoothly, with natural gas traveling safely through designated piping. However, over time, those same gas lines can deteriorate, develop leaks, or suffer from corrosion—creating a serious fire or explosion hazard if left unaddressed.
That’s where Waterfront Plumbing comes in. Our skilled technicians deliver top-tier gas line services to protect your home and ensure all appliances function properly. Count on us for:
Leak Detection & Shut Off
Think you might have a gas leak? We use precise, modern tools to inspect your system and locate the problem quickly. Once verified, our team safely isolates the issue by turning off the gas at the main line or targeted drop line, minimizing the danger of potential combustion or hazardous exposure.
Re-piping
Old gas lines aren’t just inefficient—they can pose serious hazards. We offer full-service gas line re-piping to remove aging materials like black iron or galvanized steel and replace them with durable, corrosion-resistant piping such as polyethylene or corrugated stainless steel, improving both safety and performance.
Branch Lines to Appliances
If you’re adding or upgrading a gas-powered appliance, we ensure a seamless and secure connection. Whether it’s for a new outdoor BBQ, water heater, stove, or pool heater, we install properly sized and routed branch lines that meet all safety codes and function reliably from the gas meter to your device.

Repair and Replacement Piping Options

Black Iron & Galvanized Steel
Often considered the standard for many installations, galvanized steel and black iron remain cost-effective and widely available. These pipes are a solid choice for outdoor use or high-temperature environments, though they may eventually rust or deteriorate due to moisture exposure over the years.
Corrugated Stainless Steel Tubing (CSST)
CSST offers excellent flexibility, making it ideal for maneuvering through walls, attics, and other tight locations. Its ease of installation and bendable design allow for fewer connection points, which can reduce the chance of leaks in complex gas line systems.
Polyethylene Piping
Engineered for durability, polyethylene gas lines provide a rust-free alternative to traditional piping. They’re especially suited for below-ground use and environments exposed to moisture, offering dependable performance and long-term corrosion resistance.

I can't thank them enough for all the work they did. They helped replace old pipes in the main home and set up new plumbing for our ADU.

Thank you for all your work, will definitely use again. Asako C2024-11-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a hot water pipe leak under our slab and fished around for quotes from a few companies after our initial quote came out to ~$6K. Marco was a referral from a friend and he came out the same day I called him, and came back the next day and completed the work in a few hours! He’s a really nice guy and very knowledgeable. He is also reasonably priced. Could not recommend them more! Mike2024-06-16Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I asked Marco at waterfront plumbing to come in and snake my drains since I had an emergency with my sewer backup from the toilet. He had his guys come in the next 2 hours of the call, and cleared up my lines. Very happy with the service and comfortable with the pricing.

Gas line leaks aren’t always obvious, but there are several signs to watch for. A strong sulfur or rotten egg smell is one of the most common indicators. You might also hear a faint hissing noise coming from a gas pipe or notice patches of dead grass where underground lines are leaking. If you suspect a leak, leave the property immediately and call us for emergency service.
