Gas work is licensed, permitted work — for good reason

Gas line work in Florida must be done by a licensed plumber or gas fitter, pulled on a permit, and pressure-tested and inspected before the gas is turned back on. That’s not red tape — an undersized or leaking line risks carbon monoxide poisoning, fire, and explosion. 904 Plumbers connects you with a licensed, insured Jacksonville pro who handles the permit, the install, and the test.

Natural gas in Jacksonville is delivered by TECO Peoples Gas; many outlying and rural homes run propane instead. Either way, the line inside your property is the homeowner’s responsibility, and any new run, extension, or repair is licensed work. DIY gas piping is both unsafe and, uninspected, a problem the moment you sell the house.

What we install and repair

A licensed gas plumber handles everything downstream of the meter: new appliance hookups, brand-new line runs, extensions and relocations, and leak repair. The most common Jacksonville jobs are connecting a gas range, water heater, or dryer, running a line to a pool heater or standby generator, and upsizing a line to feed a new tankless water heater.

  • Appliance hookups: gas range, cooktop, water heater, dryer, fireplace — connected, tested, and inspected.
  • New line runs & extensions: feeding a new appliance or a room addition from the existing gas system.
  • Generator & pool-heater lines: higher-demand runs sized for standby generators and pool/spa heaters.
  • Tankless conversions: a tankless water heater often needs a larger gas line and a sediment trap to run right.
  • Leak diagnosis & repair: locating and fixing a leak at a joint, valve, or corroded section, then re-testing the system.

Smell gas? Act now.

If you smell rotten eggs or sulfur, hear hissing near a gas line or appliance, or feel dizzy or nauseated, treat it as a gas leak: get everyone out of the house immediately, don’t flip any switches or light anything, and call TECO Peoples Gas and 911 from outside. Once the utility makes it safe, a licensed plumber finds and repairs the leak and re-tests the system.

  • Rotten-egg / sulfur smell: the odorant (mercaptan) added to natural gas so leaks are noticeable.
  • Hissing near a line or meter: gas escaping under pressure — leave and call from outside.
  • Dead grass or plants over the buried line: a possible underground leak.
  • Higher gas bill or a pilot that won’t stay lit: a slow leak or failing component worth inspecting.

Straight answers

Gas line questions, answered.

How much does it cost to run a gas line in Jacksonville?

A new gas line run in Jacksonville typically costs $350–$2,000+, driven by distance and how much gas the appliance demands, while a simple appliance hookup is $150–$450. Generator and pool-heater lines run higher, $500–$2,500. The permit and required pressure test are included in the upfront quote.

Can I install a gas line myself in Florida?

No. Gas line work in Florida must be done by a licensed plumber or gas fitter, permitted, and pressure-tested and inspected before the gas is turned on. Beyond the safety risk of CO poisoning and fire, uninspected gas work becomes a problem when you sell the home. It’s licensed work for a reason.

What should I do if I smell gas in my house?

Get everyone out of the house immediately, don’t touch any light switches or flames, and call TECO Peoples Gas and 911 from outside — not from inside. Once the utility makes the home safe, a licensed plumber locates and repairs the leak and re-tests the system before gas is restored.

Do I need a bigger gas line for a tankless water heater?

Often yes. Tankless water heaters demand far more gas than a tank unit, so they frequently need a larger-diameter line and a sediment trap to run correctly. A licensed plumber checks whether your existing line can carry the load before installing the tankless unit — undersized gas is a common reason new tankless heaters underperform.

Who supplies natural gas in Jacksonville?

Natural gas in Jacksonville is delivered by TECO Peoples Gas; many rural and outlying homes run propane instead. The utility owns the line up to the meter; everything downstream on your property is the homeowner’s, and any new run, extension, or repair is licensed, permitted work.
