Gas Piping

Yes. We hold Washington contractor licenses BALLANG062QD and BASHAAP823QR, and our technicians are licensed professionals. We are also a Mitsubishi Diamond Elite Contractor, a Trane Comfort Specialist and a Lennox Premier Dealer, and a longstanding member of the Air Conditioning Contractors of America.

Yes, and the main question is whether your existing supply and meter can carry the extra load. That has to be calculated across everything the house runs, not just the new appliance. We check it before quoting, because undersized supply shows up as appliances underperforming later.

Gas work is permitted and inspected in this region, and it should be. We handle the permitting as part of the job. It matters beyond compliance: unpermitted gas work causes real problems at sale and can affect insurance on a claim.

Yes. Ballard Heating, Cooling, Electric & Plumbing offers financing options to help you spread the cost of larger projects, such as a new heat pump, furnace, air conditioner, water heater, or electrical panel upgrade, into manageable monthly payments. Visit our Financing page to see current options, or call us at 206-784-8101 and our team will walk you through what's available for your project.

We quote upfront, before the work starts, so there is no surprise at the end. For larger jobs we put a detailed proposal together onsite and back it with our Price Lock Guarantee, which means the price we put in writing is the price you pay. Estimates are free.

Since 1993. We have been locally-led and operated that whole time, which is more than thirty years working on homes in this region. That matters more than it sounds: Puget Sound housing stock runs from 1920s bungalows to new construction, and the right answer for one is rarely the right answer for the other.

Often the same day. If you call before 1pm we can usually get a technician to you that day, and members of our 5 Star Maintenance Plan go to the front of the queue. Our vans are stocked, so most common repairs are finished on the first visit rather than waiting on a part.

Leave the house first. Do not switch anything on or off, including lights, and do not use your phone indoors. From outside, call your gas utility, and they will make it safe. Call us afterwards for the repair. Treat any gas smell as real until someone has checked it.

New gas lines for appliances, extending existing lines, repairs, and capping lines that are no longer used. Typical jobs are running a line for a range, a dryer, a fireplace, a barbecue or a generator, or upsizing a line so a tankless water heater has the supply it needs.

It is our annual maintenance membership. Members get discounted annual maintenance, priority service, no overtime charges, a discounted diagnostic fee that is free at the Platinum level, an extended repair warranty, discounted water heater service, and a reminder when your maintenance is due. Members who call before 1pm can usually be seen the same day.

A three year labor warranty on our work as standard, plus a Lifetime Workmanship Warranty. Manufacturer warranties on the equipment itself run separately and vary by brand and model. A Comfort Shield Extended Warranty is available if you want coverage beyond that, and we will explain what each one covers before you decide.
