CSST Repair and Bonding in St. Louis, MO

Corrugated stainless steel tubing is common in newer homes, especially in attics. CSST can be damaged by nails, rodents or lightning, and older yellow jacket CSST needs proper bonding. We repair damaged sections with manufacturer-approved fittings and verify bonding to the electrical system. This lowers the risk of a lightning-related leak during severe storms. Sudden downpours often overwhelm older sewer systems, which can push water back up through basement floor drains.

Trenching is backfilled and the yard is cleaned up when we finish.

We specialize in replacing compromised sections of gas piping, using durable materials like polyethylene (PE) for underground lines or black iron pipe for exposed sections, all installed to current code. Our repairs prevent future leaks and ensure the long-term reliability of your gas supply in St. Louis.
