A Brownstoner reader is looking to replace some gas pipe unions that are not up to code. The reader says a plumber quoted over $1,800 for a gas line test and to file a permit to replace the unions. They are wondering whether or not the plumber is required to give a certificate after the tests are complete and documentation as to whether or not the lines are compliant.

Please provide any words of advice you have below.
