Licensed Gas Range Installers NYC
We’ve been handling gas appliance installations in Manhattan since 1983. We’re not just another plumbing company—we’re the father-and-son team that Lower East Side residents call when they need it done right the first time.
Bobby and Rob understand the unique challenges of Manhattan kitchens. From pre-war buildings with quirky layouts to modern condos with strict building codes, we’ve seen it all.
Our clients know us for coming in under estimate, leaving work areas spotless, and actually caring about their safety. That’s how you build a reputation that lasts over 40 years.
Gas Cooking Range Installation Process
First, we assess your kitchen’s existing gas line and electrical setup. NYC requires gas ranges to have outlets no smaller than 3/4 inches, and we make sure everything meets current code before we start.
Next, we handle the permit paperwork. Gas appliance installation requires proper DOB permits in NYC, and we take care of that process so you don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy.
Then comes the actual installation. We carefully position your range, make the gas connection using proper fittings, test for leaks, and verify everything operates safely. We also check that your range is properly grounded and that all safety features are functioning correctly.

Gas Range Hookup Lower East Side
Your gas range installation includes complete connection to your existing gas line, leak testing with professional equipment, and verification that all safety systems work properly. We also handle the electrical connection if your range has electronic ignition or other electrical components.
For Lower East Side apartments and homes, we understand the building restrictions you’re dealing with. Many older buildings have specific requirements for gas appliances, and we make sure your installation meets both city code and your building’s rules.
We also provide guidance on proper range operation and maintenance. Gas ranges last longer and cook better when they’re properly maintained, and we’ll show you what to watch for to keep your investment in top condition.
Do I need a permit for gas range installation in NYC?
Yes, NYC requires permits for all gas appliance installations and alterations. This isn’t optional—it’s city law, and for good reason.
The Department of Buildings has significantly increased enforcement since gas explosions in Manhattan neighborhoods like the Lower East Side. Getting caught with unpermitted gas work can result in fines, forced removal of your appliance, and serious safety risks.
We handle all permit applications as part of our service. We know exactly what documentation the DOB requires, and we make sure everything is filed correctly before we start work.
How long does gas stove installation take?
Most gas range installations take 2-4 hours, depending on your kitchen setup and whether any gas line modifications are needed.
If you already have a properly sized gas line in the right location, installation is straightforward. We connect the range, test for leaks, verify proper operation, and you’re cooking the same day.
However, if we need to run new gas lines or upgrade existing ones, that adds time. We’ll assess your situation during our initial consultation and give you an accurate timeline before we start work.
Can any plumber install a gas range in NYC?
No. NYC building code specifically requires that all gas appliance installations be performed by licensed master plumbers or equivalent professionals.
This isn’t just a technicality—it’s about safety. Gas appliances require specific knowledge of pressure requirements, proper fittings, leak detection, and safety protocols. Unlicensed work puts you and your neighbors at risk.
We hold all required NYC licenses and have been installing gas appliances in Manhattan for over 40 years. We know the codes, we know the safety procedures, and we know how to get the job done right.
What if my gas line isn't the right size for my new range?
We’ll assess your existing gas line during our consultation and let you know if modifications are needed. Many older Manhattan apartments have undersized gas lines that can’t properly supply modern ranges.
If your gas line needs upgrading, we handle that too. We’ll run new lines to meet your range’s requirements and ensure proper gas pressure throughout your system.
The good news is that most gas line upgrades in apartments are straightforward. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your kitchen, and we always clean up thoroughly when we’re finished.
How do I know if my gas range is installed safely?
Professional installation includes comprehensive leak testing and safety verification. We test every connection with both soap solution and electronic gas detectors to ensure there are no leaks anywhere in the system.
We also verify that your range’s safety features are working properly—things like automatic shut-off valves, proper grounding, and adequate ventilation. These aren’t optional safety measures; they’re required by code and essential for safe operation.
After installation, we’ll show you how to do basic safety checks yourself, like looking for proper flame color and listening for unusual sounds. But remember, annual professional inspections are required by NYC law for gas appliances in many buildings.
What brands of gas ranges do you install?
We install all major brands of gas ranges, from basic models to high-end professional-style units. Whether you’ve bought a standard range from a big box store or invested in a Wolf or Viking range, we have the experience to install it properly.
High-end ranges often have specific installation requirements, and we’re familiar with the manufacturer specifications for all major brands. We also understand the insurance and warranty implications of proper installation.
The key is making sure your installation meets both the manufacturer’s requirements and NYC building codes. We handle both aspects so your range performs properly and your warranties remain valid.
