<- Back to Gas Installation Service
I got a call from a guy in Northwood Village last spring. He had just bought a gas range. Beautiful stove. Sat in his kitchen for two weeks because nobody would touch the hookup. His plumber said no. His handyman said no. He didn't know who to call.
That call is more common than you'd think here in West Palm Beach.
If you need a gas line installed — for a stove, a generator, a pool heater, or an outdoor kitchen — you need a licensed gas contractor. Not a plumber. Not a general contractor. A gas line installation specialist who pulls the permit, does the work, and gets it inspected by Palm Beach County before anyone lights a burner.
That's exactly what we do at Blue Flame Professional Service.
Our customers rate us 5 stars across Google and Facebook. We've earned that reputation one job at a time — showing up on time, charging what we quote, and fixing it right the first time.

Most people don't think about their gas lines until something stops working. Or until they want something new and realize there's no gas stub where they need one.
Here are the most common reasons West Palm Beach homeowners call us:
Older homes in neighborhoods like El Cid and Flamingo Park run into this a lot. The bones of those houses are great. But the gas setup is old. Sometimes there's no dedicated drop at all for a new appliance. We see it every week.
If any of this sounds like your situation, the fix starts with one call. We come out, look at your current gas supply and pressure, and tell you exactly what needs to happen before anything gets connected.
No guessing. No surprises.
We hear this a lot: "How does this whole thing work?" Fair question. When you hire the right contractor, it's pretty straightforward. Here's what happens from the moment you call us to the moment your appliance is up and running.
A homeowner in Northwood Village called us not too long ago. He had just switched from electric to gas cooking. New range. Nice one. But there was no gas stub anywhere near the kitchen. The previous owner had never run a line there.
He had already called two other companies. One never called back. The other told him it would be a three-week wait.
He called Blue Flame. We came out, looked at his setup, and had a plan the same day.
We pulled the permit from Palm Beach County. We ran a new dedicated line from the meter straight to the range location. Clean route. No shortcuts.
The Palm Beach County inspector came out and passed the job on the first visit.
He had a working gas stove before the weekend. No second trip. No surprises. No waiting three weeks.
That's how it goes when the job is done right.
We do work like this all over West Palm Beach — from SoSo to Prospect Park to Flamingo Park. Every week there's a homeowner who just needed someone to show up and do the job correctly the first time.
That's what we're here for.
There are a lot of contractors in Palm Beach County. So why do people keep calling Blue Flame?
Here's what we hear most after a job is done.
We're a licensed gas contractor — not a plumber doing gas on the side. Gas line installation is all we do. It's not a service we added to pad out a menu. When you call us, you get a tech who works on gas systems every single day.
We pull every permit. We schedule every inspection. You don't have to call Palm Beach County. You don't have to follow up. We handle it from start to finish and we don't consider the job done until it passes inspection.
We know West Palm Beach. We know the neighborhoods. We know how older homes in areas like El Cid, Northwood, and Prospect Park are laid out. We know what Palm Beach County inspectors look for. That local knowledge saves time and avoids headaches.
We work on natural gas and propane. One call covers both. Whether your home runs on natural gas or you have a propane setup, we handle it.
Most residential installs qualify for same-week scheduling. We know you don't want to wait. We don't make you.
We are licensed, insured, and accountable. Every tech is background checked and drug free. You know who is coming into your home before they get there. That matters to us as much as it matters to you.
This is one of the most common mix-ups we see in West Palm Beach.
Someone buys a gas range. They call their plumber. The plumber says they don't do gas work. Or worse — they say yes, start the job, and then the inspection fails because gas work in Florida requires a separate license that most plumbers don't hold.
Here's the simple version:
Plumbers hold plumbing licenses. Gas work requires a gas contractor license.
Those are two different things. Florida law is clear on this. A licensed gas contractor is the right call for any new gas line, any appliance hookup, and any repair to an existing gas system.
When you call Blue Flame, one licensed tech handles everything:
One contractor. One permit. One inspection. One visit.
We see this a lot in homes near West Palm Beach's Historic Warehouse District where older buildings are getting updated kitchens with modern gas appliances. The bones are there. The gas line just needs to be run correctly by the right person.
Don't start over because someone used the wrong contractor the first time. Call a licensed gas installation tech from the start.
Adding an outdoor kitchen? Installing a whole-home generator? Putting in a pool heater? Then you're probably going to need a buried gas line. And in West Palm Beach, that comes with rules.
Florida has specific requirements for how deep a gas line must be buried. That depth depends on the type of pipe being used and where it runs on your property. Here in South Florida, the sandy soil near the Intracoastal adds another layer to consider when planning the trench route. This isn't something to guess at.
Propane tanks have their own set of rules too. A 100 lb propane tank must sit at least 10 feet away from any building opening or ignition source. That means doors, windows, vents, and electrical panels all factor into where the tank can legally go. Get it wrong and it won't pass inspection. You can learn more about natural gas safety standards directly from the EPA.
If you live in a community in areas like Palm Beach Lakes or other HOA-managed neighborhoods, your HOA may have setback rules that go beyond what the state requires. We check all of that before any trench gets dug or any tank gets placed.
Here's what we verify before every outdoor gas job:
• Florida burial depth requirements based on pipe type and location
• Propane tank setback distances from all building openings and ignition sources
• Palm Beach County permit requirements for buried lines
• HOA-specific rules for your community
No shortcuts. No assumptions. We do it right the first time so it passes inspection and stays safe for years.
If you've been putting this off, here's the truth. The longer a gas appliance sits unconnected, the longer you're without something you already paid for.
We make this easy. One call to Blue Flame and we handle everything — the permit, the installation, the inspection, and the final pressure check. You don't chase paperwork. You don't coordinate with the county. You just get a working gas line done right.
