Gas Line Rerouting in Lakeside

This project involved rerouting a 1-inch natural gas line at a residential property in Lakeside to accommodate the installation of new roof trusses. The existing gas line was passing through an area that would interfere with the structural framing work, so a safe and efficient reroute was necessary.

Our licensed technicians evaluated the existing line layout and used a combination of current gas piping and new 1” MegaPress compression fittings to create a secure, code-compliant rerouting. These fittings provide strong, heat-free connections that are ideal for tight spaces and retrofit projects.

We reconnected the gas service to the home, added proper support for long-term stability, and turned the gas supply back on. The entire system was pressure-tested to ensure there were no leaks. Once verified, we safely relit the water heater and checked that all gas appliances were functioning correctly before completing the project.

This job highlights our ability to handle complex gas line modifications accurately, ensuring safety and adherence to local building codes — all while reducing disruption to the homeowner’s schedule and ongoing construction.
