Gas Line Repair & Installation Calgary
New gas line runs for BBQs, garage heaters, patio heaters, fireplaces, and stoves — plus leak repairs and pressure testing. Only licensed gasfitters touch your gas system. Ever.
Gas Work in Alberta Is Licensed-Only — and for Good Reason
Alberta requires that all gas line work — including repairs, extensions, and new installations — be performed by a licensed gasfitter registered with TSSA or the equivalent provincial body. This isn't bureaucracy: gas work done incorrectly causes fires, explosions, and CO poisoning. The certification exists because the consequences of errors are catastrophic and often invisible until it's too late.
At AIC, every gas line job is done by certified gasfitters, pressure-tested before commissioning, and documented for your records and insurance. If a contractor quotes you on gas line work and doesn't mention certification, that's a red flag you should walk away from.
- All work performed by licensed, registered gasfitters
- Pressure-tested before any gas supply is restored
- Written documentation for permits and insurance
- Coordination with ATCO Gas when required
Signs Your Gas BBQ Grill Needs Repair or Replacement
Has your gas grill seen better days? If you notice any of the following signs, it may be time for a new one. Even the most well-protected grill can have its parts wear out. Find out if the grill is still under warranty — oftentimes, fixing and replacing the part will be more cost-effective than replacing the entire grill.
Uneven Flames or Heat
If the flames are yellow or uneven, you may simply need to clean the burner tubes. Once repaired, the flame should burn blue once again.
Cracked Firebox
If the firebox has serious rust or is cracked, it's time to replace your grill.
Cracked Hose or Connector
If your gas hose is cracked, you'll need to replace it. Gas leaks should be taken seriously and handled by a trained and reputable professional.
Malfunctioning Igniter
If your gas grill is not igniting properly, you'll likely need to replace the grill igniter.
Gas Line Work We Do
New Gas Line Runs
Adding a BBQ hookup, garage heater, patio heater, or new stove? We run new lines from your existing gas supply, size them correctly for the appliance BTU load, and commission with a pressure test.
Gas Line Repair
Leaking fittings, corroded sections, damaged flex connectors, or post-renovation breaks. We locate the fault, repair or replace the affected segment, and pressure-test before restoring supply.
Appliance Connection
Connecting a new gas fireplace, range, dryer, BBQ, or heater to an existing gas rough-in. Final connections must be done by a licensed gasfitter — not DIY or by the appliance delivery team.
Not Sure If It's a Repair or a New Line?
Tell us what you're hooking up — BBQ, garage heater, fireplace, or stove — and we'll size the job and quote it before any work starts.
What Are Common Causes of Gas Line Leaks?
Over 6 million people in Canada use natural gas to heat their homes, which means gas line leaks are a common problem — and they can be especially frightening to older people who live alone. Here are the common causes of gas line leaks.
Faulty Piping
If your home's piping was installed improperly, it can age prematurely, or the joints can come loose, which causes leaks.
Failing Seals
Appliances that hook into the gas lines utilize seals to maintain a tight connection. Over time, these seals weaken and fail, causing a leak.
Corroded Pipes
If you have an older home, chances are the metal pipes are corroded. The longer these pipes are in place, the sooner they'll leak.
If you have problems with leaky gas pipes, call a gas line repair service right away to avoid a dangerous situation.
Repair or Replace Gas Lines?
If your gas lines are old and leaking, you're probably wondering whether you're better off repairing the damaged lines or replacing them. In cases where the pipes are over 50 years old, experts recommend replacing the lines. You may get off cheaper with a repair, but this is only a temporary fix because you'll eventually have to replace the old lines down the road. New gas lines are more resistant to leaks and will last for a good 20 years or more.
Gas Leak? That's an Emergency Call.
If you smell gas right now — leave the building without switching anything on or off, and call from outside. We're available 24/7.

Gas Line Questions
Can I extend a gas line myself in Alberta?
No. Alberta regulations require all gas line work to be performed by a licensed gasfitter. This applies to repairs, extensions, and new connections — including simple work like moving a gas dryer connection. DIY gas work is illegal and voids your home insurance.
How long does a new gas line installation take?
A straightforward new run — for a BBQ hookup or garage heater from an accessible existing supply — typically takes 2–4 hours including pressure testing. More complex jobs (underground runs, trench work, multi-appliance setups) take longer. We provide a written estimate before any work starts.
Do I need a permit for gas line work?
Permits are required for most gas line installations in Calgary. We handle permit coordination as part of our standard process — you don't need to navigate the permit office separately. All work is documented and inspected as required.
What's the difference between a gas line repair and an emergency call?
An emergency call is for an active smell of gas, a known leak, or a situation where the gas supply is on and a line is compromised. For scheduled repairs where the source isn't an active leak — a loose fitting found during maintenance, a flex connector you want to replace proactively — call us during business hours. If you smell gas, call immediately and leave.
