What We Install

Gas Lines for Every Appliance

We run and extend gas lines for:

Ranges and Cooktops

Switching to gas or moving the range.

Standby Generators

Sized for the generator's full load.

Grills, Fire Pits and Heaters

Permanent lines instead of propane tanks.

Fireplaces

New units and conversions. See gas fireplace service.

Dryers

A dedicated line in the laundry room.

Tankless Water Heaters

Often need a bigger line. See tankless water heaters.

How We Install

Our Gas Line Installation Process

Gas lines have to be right the first time:

1. Size the Line

We add up the gas load and the distance from the meter.

2. Permit and JULIE

We pull the permit and call JULIE (Illinois 811) before digging.

3. Install to Code

Pipe, fittings and shutoffs where code requires them.

4. Pressure-Test

Every connection checked before the appliance runs.

Local Knowledge

Gas Line Installation in Joliet Homes

Joliet's homes span more than a century, so the existing gas piping varies a lot.

Tying Into Old Piping

In older homes, we check the existing piping and fittings for corrosion before connecting anything new.

Capacity for Big Appliances

A generator or tankless heater can need more gas than an older system was sized for.

Newer Homes, Outdoor Projects

In west side subdivisions, patio grills and fire pits are the most common new lines. We route them around patios and landscaping.

The J. Blanton Difference

"Communication, information and installation went great. Price was very competitive. Shane explained everything extremely well and Alex installed hot water tank beautifully. Shortly after Alex left a gas leak from an old valve on the piping to the tank occurred and needed to be replaced, Alex came back same night and fixed it. This is a 5-Star company."

"We had a new gas pipe installed that ws located to sevice our dryer in the basement on July 14th. The Technician was friendly and did a great job with the installation. He cleaned up after himself, and the pricing was competative."

Every run is different: how far it goes from the meter, whether it's inside or buried, the pipe size and the permit. We walk the route with you and give you one flat rate before anything starts.
