Why Choose Homewerx?

Gas Leaks Can Be Fatal

Natural gas is explosive in concentrations as low as 5%. Even small leaks in enclosed spaces like closets, attics, or under-slab chases create life-threatening conditions. Gas work is never DIY.

Only Licensed Plumbers Can Do Gas Work in California

California law requires a C-36 plumbing license for gas line work. Unlicensed gas work is illegal, voids insurance, and creates catastrophic liability if something goes wrong.

Corroded Gas Lines Are Common in Older Homes

San Diego homes built before 1980 often have black iron gas lines that corrode from the outside due to soil contact and moisture. Internal corrosion restricts flow and weakens pipe walls.

New Appliances May Need Larger Gas Lines

Upgrading to a tankless water heater, commercial-style range, or pool heater often requires a larger gas supply line. Undersized gas lines cause appliances to underperform and can create dangerous combustion conditions.

Our Process

01

Leak Detection

We use electronic gas detectors and soap solution testing to locate leaks precisely. Even small leaks at fittings, valves, and appliance connections are identified and documented.

02

Pressure Testing

The entire gas system is isolated and pressure tested to verify integrity. Pressure drop over the test period indicates leaks that may not be detectable by smell alone.

03

Repair & Replacement

We repair or replace damaged sections, corroded fittings, and failed connections using approved materials and methods. All joints are tested individually after repair.

04

New Line Installation

We design and install new gas lines for appliance additions or upgrades, properly sized for the BTU demand and routed per code with required clearances and protection.

05

SDG&E Coordination

We coordinate meter upgrades and service changes with SDG&E when your gas demand exceeds the existing meter capacity. This is common when adding tankless water heaters.

06

Inspection & Certification

All gas work is pressure tested and inspected per California code requirements. We pull permits when required and ensure your installation passes inspection.
