How to Get Your Gas Line Contractor’s License  

The world has been going through rough times lately, and many Americans have unfortunately been laid off. Contractors have essential jobs and have still been able to keep and find work during the world pandemic. There is still a high demand for skilled workers, so a career in contracting is a good career path to follow.  

At Licenses, Etc., we are a Florida contractor licensing company and we can help you get your contractor license in Florida or another state.  

For this blog post, we wanted to focus on a gas line specialty contractor license. There are many specialties within the contracting world, so we wanted to detail the license requirements for you, so you can see where your interests and skillset fit best. 

What is a gas line contractor?  

By definition, a gas line specialty contractor “is a contractor whose scope of work is limited to installation, modification, alteration, testing, repair and maintenance of natural gas transmission systems and natural gas distribution systems with all appurtenances within rights-of-way, easements, or terminating at meter.” 

Working with natural gas is a serious profession that requires specialized training and certification. Here are the requirements for this license: 

• Four years of experience. This can be reduced by up to 3 years with college credits. 
• At least one year out of the four years of experience must have been as a foreman. 
• Experience from this employment period must demonstrate substantial compliance installing, modifying and altering: 

• Natural Gas Transmission Systems 
• Natural Gas Distribution Systems
