Expert Lowcountry Gas Services

What natural gas issue can we help you solve today?

Please note: If you or someone else performed a gas line repair or installation, Swell Guy Plumbing will not obtain a gas permit for you. We only obtain gas permits for work that we perform.

Natural gas is a great fuel for heating things. We use natural gas to heat our homes, heat or water, and to cook with. This plumber prefers a gas stove for cooking, a tankless gas water heater for showering, and a gas furnace stay warm on a cold night.

But, gas lines have the ability to be deadly so we highly encourage you to use properly licensed plumbers for any gas work that you need performed. Swell Guy Plumbing Co also recommends obtaining a gas permit for any new gas line installation. And if you have gas fixtures in your house, please make sure that you have carbon monoxide detectors installed. Carbon monoxide can be more hazardous to your health than a gas leak because you can’t smell carbon monoxide.

The state of South Carolina requires that anyone working with natural gas be properly licensed. I get it, you think you can save a few dollars by using a cheaper “handyman” to fix your gas lines, but are the hazards to your health really worth the few dollars you might initially save?

Swell Guy Plumbing takes your health very seriously. We don’t cut corners when we’re working with natural gas. Natural gas work is our highest liability service and we prefer our customers stay alive for many years to come, because you pay our salary. Being properly licensed means that we know how to safely install gas lines and fixtures so that you don’t have to worry about the hazards that can happen when gas lines are not installed correctly.

This plumber’s advice is to always think about you and your family’s health, so DON’T DIY or pay the handyman to fix anything that carries or uses natural gas.

Please also note that Swell Guy Plumbing will not obtain a gas permit for work that has been completed by anyone else. Many people think they can fix a gas leak or install a gas fixture, then have a plumber obtain a gas safety test permit – this is not true. A gas safety test does not cover repairs or installations that have been perfomed by a homeowner or unlicensed gas contractor trying to bypass having a licensed gas plumber do the work. Swell Guy Plumbing will only obtain a gas permit for work that we’ve performed.

You can check a company’s license status by visiting the SCLLR website and performing a licensee search.

At Swell Guy Plumbing, we take your privacy seriously. We're people too and we hate getting bombarded with unwanted emails, texts and phone calls. So we won't do that to you!
