Gas Line Repair & Installation in Colton: What We See

Colton homes are served by Southern California Gas Company. In the older neighborhoods downtown and in South Colton, gas piping is often original and has been modified over the years, so we check connectors, valves, and any lines added for later appliances. Newer homes in Cooley Ranch and the Reche Canyon area are more likely to call us for new lines to barbecues, fire pits, or pool heaters.

Whatever the job, we confirm the source, size new lines for the full gas load, pressure test, and coordinate with SoCalGas when they need to restore or relight service. We will not connect an appliance to a line that has not passed.

Plumbing in Colton Homes

Colton sits just southeast of our Rialto shop, so we reach most of the city in a short drive. In Colton, downtown and South Colton have older homes, some from before World War II, while Cooley Ranch and the Reche Canyon area are mostly later tract and hillside homes. Neighborhoods we regularly work in include downtown and the Mt. Vernon Avenue corridor, South Colton, the west side toward the Rialto line, Cooley Ranch, and the homes along Reche Canyon Road. Water service comes from the City of Colton’s own utility, which draws largely from local wells. Under and around these homes we typically find clay laterals and galvanized supply in the older blocks, and ABS drains with copper supply in the later tracts, and that history shapes how we approach every gas line repair job in town.


If you smell gas right now: leave the house, do not switch lights or appliances on or off, do not use a phone indoors, and once you are outside call Southern California Gas Company at 1-800-427-2200 or 911. After the utility has made it safe, call us for repairs.

Gas Line Work We Handle

  • Leak repair on gas piping and fittings, and replacement of leaking flex connectors
  • New gas lines for ranges, dryers, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and pool or spa heaters
  • Water heater gas connections, including sediment traps and shutoffs, as part of water heater service and installs
  • Re-piping old gas lines and replacing corroded underground lines
  • Pressure testing after repairs or when the utility needs a test before restoring service
  • Seismic and excess-flow shutoff valves on request

How a Gas Job Works

  1. Safety first. If the utility has shut off your service or tagged an appliance, we start there.
  2. Find the problem. We test fittings and lines, check connectors and valves, and confirm the source instead of guessing.
  3. Size it right. For new lines and added appliances, the pipe has to carry enough gas for everything on the system. We check the load so a new range or heater does not starve the others.
  4. Permit and test. Gas piping work is permitted and inspected where the city requires it, and the system is pressure tested before it goes back in service. Where SoCalGas needs to restore or relight service, we coordinate with them.

We give you a written price before work starts. We do not take shortcuts on gas, and we will not connect an appliance to a line that tests bad.


Common Causes of Gas Line Problems

Older flexible connectors behind ranges and dryers, fittings disturbed when appliances are moved, corrosion on steel pipe that runs underground or along exterior walls, and lines that were added on by someone without the right materials or sizing. Underground lines to detached garages, pool equipment, and barbecues are worth checking on older properties.
