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.

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

When hiring a plumber to install or repair gas pipes, consider asking them the following questions: 

• Do you have insurance and a professional license to do the job? 

• How long will the project take to complete? 

• Will I need to hire additional professionals for excavation or landscaping? 

• Do you have references from previous clients? 

• Do you belong to any relevant trade associations? 

As long as a licensed professional installs your gas lines, you don’t have to do anything extra to prepare for cold weather. If there are pipes that require a wrap, your installer should have done it for you already. If you want to be absolutely sure your gas system is good to go for winter, the best option is to schedule a gas line inspection.
