"I was scheduled with United Plumbing between 5 and 8pm Dec. 23, 2024 to have a toilet installed. I tried to reach out to the number Angi sent me through Lowe’s 3 times to verify several days before the appointment, and those calls were all ignored. I got a text message from the owner “Nate” at 4:45 on the day of service asking if I was available. I called him less than 10 minutes later to tell him I was on my way to the job location, and he responded by telling me, “we don’t work after 5, so I parked my truck.” I was very confused by this since he tried to reach out to me under 10 minutes earlier. After several minutes of requesting that he fulfill his pre-scheduled appointment, and him refusing, I accepted his offer to come at 9 the next morning. I said “I’ll see you at 9, and hung up the phone.” Nate cancelled and refused to come, “because I hung up my phone.” What else was there to say?! The owner is very unprofessional, and should not be running a business!"

Gas Logs questions, answered by experts

While some building codes allow galvanized pipe for natural gas, it shouldn’t be used for propane. Propane can cause the pipe to wear down, leading to dangerous leaks. Instead of galvanized piping for propane, you should consider coated copper, black iron, or corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST). For underground propane line installation, you can use polyethylene (PE).

Temporarily capping a gas line—for renovations or during travel—doesn’t require a permit. If you plan to remove a gas line and cap it completely, you’ll need to apply and pay for one through your town or city. Depending on your region and its local codes, you may pay between $25 and $100. To avoid a gas leak or other hazards, some cities take the job of permanently adjusting or capping a gas line out of the hands of homeowners. Instead, they require hiring a professional gas plumber.  

Almost all new buildings in California need an earthquake shut-off valve. The requirements for an earthquake gas shut-off valve (and who can install it) depend on where you live. For example, according to the Los Angeles Municipal Code, you’re required to hire a licensed contractor to install one whenever you build, sell, or renovate a home. Check with your local building department for your city’s laws on installing, permitting, and inspecting earthquake shut-off valves.

Gas fireplaces use either natural gas or propane—both of which will increase your energy expenses. On average, running a gas fireplace costs $400 to $640 per year; however, these costs can vary significantly depending on the fuel price in your area and the frequency of fireplace use. If you’re looking for a more energy-efficient option, consider switching to an electric fireplace.

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?
