Not every plumber is certified for gas work in SC. Our gas plumbers hold active state certifications for natural gas and propane installations, carry CSST-qualified training for flexible corrugated stainless steel tubing systems, and document every job with a written pressure test result before we close out.

These aren't marketing points โ they're the minimum requirements for safe gas line work. Every Masters Plumbing Service gas job in Riverview, SC meets all four, on every call, without exception.
No unlicensed person touches gas line work at Masters Plumbing Service. The stakes are too high for on-the-job learning.
After any gas line repair, installation, or reconnection, we pass a calibrated combustible gas detector โ sensitive to natural gas and propane at concentrations far below the lower explosive limit โ over every fitting, joint, and appliance connection we worked on. A clean detector pass at every point is required before the job is closed out.
A manometer measures gas line pressure precisely over a timed hold period. After any repair or new installation, we isolate the segment, pressurize to test pressure, connect the manometer, and hold for the required duration. Zero pressure drop confirms a leak-free installation. We document the test result โ pressure, hold time, and pass/fail โ and provide you with a copy.
A permit isn't just a bureaucratic step โ it's an independent safety check. The inspector confirms our work meets the applicable code. That second set of eyes protects you, and we welcome it.
Our gas plumbers handle the full range of residential and light commercial gas line work in Riverview, SC โ from a suspect appliance connector to a full new gas run for a generator or outdoor kitchen.
Once the utility has confirmed the street supply is shut and the structure has ventilated, we locate the leak, make the repair, detector-test every connection, perform the manometer pressure test, and coordinate with the utility for gas restoration.
Flexible corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST) connections require proper bonding in most SC jurisdictions to prevent damage from nearby lightning events โ a code requirement many contractors overlook. Our gas techs are CSST-bonding trained.
We calculate BTU load for the intended appliances, size the new line in black iron or CSST per the installation context, install at the required depth for buried runs, and perform pressure testing on the new segment before any appliances are connected.
We pressure-test the full distribution system or individual branches per client request, provide a written test result, and report any pressure drop with our best assessment of where the loss is occurring.
If you have CSST in your home and it was installed before 2010, the bonding may not meet current code requirements. We can assess existing CSST installations, add required bonding conductors, and document the system for insurance or resale purposes.
{Propane systems used in areas of Riverview, SC without natural gas service have specific considerations compared to natural gas: different line pressures at the regulator (propane distribution pressure varies by system design), different BTU content per cubic foot, and propane's behavior of settling low (it's heavier than air, so propane accumulates at floor level rather than rising to ceilings).|We service propane supply lines from the tank to the structure, appliance connections, regulator function checks, and leak detection using detectors calibrated for propane's lower explosive limit.}
Gas line work follows a defined protocol โ no steps skipped, no "close enough." Here's exactly how a Masters Plumbing Service gas call runs from your first contact to a documented, pressure-tested result.
Active gas smell: stay out of the building, call your utility to shut street supply, then call us. Non-emergency gas work (new runs, appliance connections, pressure testing): call to schedule โ we confirm certification documentation and permit requirements for your specific job scope before arrival.
On arrival, we conduct a detector survey of the full accessible gas system โ not just the suspected area. This establishes a baseline and catches any pre-existing issues beyond the immediate call scope.
You receive a flat-rate quote covering the repair or installation, permit costs, and inspection coordination before any work begins. We pull the permit, execute the work, and do not restore gas to the affected segment until the manometer test passes.
After every gas job โ repair, new run, or appliance connection โ we conduct a timed manometer pressure hold test on the affected segment and detector-test every connection point. You receive the written test result as part of your job documentation.

Needed a new gas line run to an outdoor kitchen setup. Masters Plumbing Service sized the line correctly for the combined BTU load of the burners and the side burner, ran 3/4-inch black iron through the crawl space and up through the exterior wall, installed a shutoff at the outlet, pressure tested the new segment, and handled the permit and inspection scheduling. Inspection passed first time.
I bought an older home in Riverview that had a gas dryer stub but I'm switching to a gas range. Masters Plumbing Service traced the existing gas distribution, confirmed the supply capacity was adequate, extended the run to the kitchen with correctly sized pipe, capped the dryer stub, and provided a full manometer test on the entire modified system. Very thorough work โ documentation exactly as described upfront.
Commercial kitchen remodel required moving two gas lines and adding a new connection for a salamander broiler. Masters Plumbing Service sized the header and branch lines for the total connected BTU load, pulled the required commercial permit, executed the work, and provided a full system pressure test documentation for the health department inspection file. Clean work, inspected and passed first visit.

Our gas plumbers hold active SC certifications for natural gas and propane, and we carry combustible gas detectors and digital manometers on every gas-call vehicle.

Gas line work done right means certified technicians, combustible gas detection at every connection, and a manometer pressure test before gas is restored. Masters Plumbing Service delivers all three on every gas call in Riverview, SC โ emergency or scheduled.
