PROPANE, NOT NATURAL GAS
Marco Island Runs on Propane, Not Natural Gas — Here's What That Means
There's no natural gas main running to Marco Island homes. Every gas appliance on the island — water heaters, generators, pool heaters, outdoor kitchens — runs on propane or LP gas, delivered and stored in a tank by a provider like AmeriGas or a local propane company. Our job is separate from theirs: we install, size, and repair the actual gas lines and fittings running from that tank to your appliances.
GENERATORS
Gas Line Work for Whole-Home Generators
After Hurricane Irma made a direct hit on Marco Island in 2017, generator demand on the island climbed — and a generator is only as reliable as the gas line feeding it. Sizing that line correctly for the generator's BTU load, and running it to code, is exactly the kind of work that matters most when you actually need the generator to work, during a storm.
POOL HEATERS & OUTDOOR KITCHENS
Pool Heaters, Outdoor Kitchens & Gas Water Heaters
Pools, outdoor kitchens, and gas water heaters are common on Marco Island's waterfront and second-home properties, and each one needs its own correctly sized gas line run from the propane tank. We handle new installs for renovations and additions, not just repairs on existing lines.
SALT-AIR CORROSION
Salt Air & Gas Fitting Corrosion
Outdoor gas regulators, fittings, and exposed line sections sit inside the same aggressive coastal-corrosion band that wears out hose bibs and backflow devices faster on Marco Island than inland. A regulator or fitting that would last years elsewhere is worth a periodic look here.
GAS LEAK SAFETY
Gas Line Safety — Signs of a Leak & What To Do
A rotten-egg smell, a hissing sound near a line or appliance, or dead vegetation over a buried gas line are signs to take seriously. Leave the area, don't operate anything electrical or flip a switch, and call your propane provider's emergency line first — then call us for the actual line repair once it's safe.

FAQs
Gas Line Repair & Installation Questions From Marco Island Homeowners
-
Does Marco Island have natural gas service?
No — there's no natural gas main on the island. All gas appliances run on propane or LP gas from a tank.
-
If I smell gas, should I call you or my propane company first?
Leave the area immediately and call your propane provider's emergency line first for safety, then call us once it's safe to schedule the actual line repair.
-
Can you size and run a gas line for a new whole-home generator?
Yes — correctly sizing the line for the generator's BTU load is exactly the kind of work we do, especially ahead of hurricane season.
-
Do you install gas lines for pool heaters and outdoor kitchens?
Yes, including new installs for renovations and additions, not just repairs on existing lines.
-
Do you work on both above-ground and buried gas lines?
Yes, we handle both, and we coordinate any required permitting with the city.
-
How often should outdoor gas fittings be checked on Marco Island?
More often than you'd need inland — salt air accelerates wear on regulators and exposed fittings, so a periodic check is worth it.
-
Do you deliver or sell propane?
No — propane delivery is handled by providers like AmeriGas or a local propane company. We handle the lines and fittings from the tank to your appliances.
-
Is a permit required for new gas line work on Marco Island?
