"My wife and I recently purchased a new cook top and wall oven. However, the gas line for the cook top hindered the oven from sliding all the way back, thus it was not flush with the cabinetry. After submitting the issue on Angie's list, we were contacted by Sabir w/ Xtreme Plumbing Services. He came out to our home the SAME day and his office provided a quote the next day. The next business day he and Chris were back to perform the work. They re-routed the gas line to allow the oven to slide into its space. They were professional and knowledgeable. They even took time to clean up what little mess they made."

"Everything went great. They took care of everything and came out the same day I called. It was a real problem because the gas company had red tagged the house and turned the gas off. As soon as he put the new valves on they were able to turn the gas back on. I thought they were fair priced, came out promptly, and took care of everything that needed to get done."

Gas Logs questions, answered by experts

Yes, most states require a plumber to be licensed, and for good reason. Hiring an unlicensed plumber could lead to poor quality work, costly future expenses, and potential code violations. Check our state licensing tool to review the local plumber guidelines.

As you browse our pro listings, take note of the “Angi Approved” badge. Angi Approved businesses meet our standards for certification, which include:

The owner, principal, or relevant manager passed a criminal background check
Required to have applicable state and local licenses
Maintain an average star rating of 3.0 or better on our network, if they have at least one review
Paying to advertise their services
Meeting any other eligibility criteria required by Angi

Keep in mind licensing is different from certifications. A license is a legal requirement to operate a business, while certifications are voluntary.

Examples include gas stoves, ovens, and water heaters. Confirm with your provider for specific items.

Local codes often mandate specific fittings, permits, and vent considerations for permitted function and safety, which are enforced by professionals.

Gas grill installation costs around $540 on average, not including the price of the actual grill, and most homeowners pay between $120 and $1,400. This total will go toward laying down a new gas line, connecting it to your existing gas system, pressure testing the line, and connecting it to your grill. Your total project price will depend on the length of the gas line, whether or not the line needs to be installed underground, and the cost of the permits in your area.

You can maneuver your gas grill into place, but you cannot connect the grill to your gas source yourself. All municipalities mandate that a certified plumber carry out this work, so you’ll have to reach out to a plumber or a gas grill installation company in your area. Given how dangerous a gas leak can be, gas lines and connections are highly regulated, so you’ll need a professional’s help and a permit to install a gas grill.
