What's a fair price for a licensed person?

Are there special requirements for a plumber doing the work if he is working with gas instead of water? How do you verify a plumber's qualifications for working with a gas line and validate the insurance policy, i.e. prior to doing the work? Even if the insurance company acknowledges a policy in place, are there clauses that might exclude them from paying out?


Most towns require a permit and inspection for gas work. It is often
ignored on small jobs as it adds a lot to the cost to apply, then get
the permit and inspection.

It is easy to check for a license. Most will show you if asked or tell
you where to verify and some states you can go on line and type in a
name. Some states require a gass fitter license.
