Cost to run a gas line to a stove?

House has natural gas, but the stove is electric. Roughly, what is the cost to run a gas line for a gas stove?

How far? Above ground? Figure $1000+

How old is your house? Keep in mind a permit will have to be pulled and the entire house will have to pass a pressure test that is MUCH more pressure than what the gas company sends. The tests are much stricter than they used to be.

Need more info.
Pier and beam or slab on grade?
Gas already on property?
If so how far does it need to run?
Where is Point A and where is Point B?

I'm interested in this. Are we talking black pipe or yellow flexible tubing for the gas line?

Browsing houses for inlaws. Looking at one that is slab and one that is pier and beam
Yes gas already on property
Lets say 50'
Point A is outside, point B is the kitchen for a gas range

Pier and beam would be pretty easy and shouldn’t be too costly. Run has under house and pop up under range.
Slab on grade means cutting drywall and running up wall, into ceiling/attic and back down into wall near range.

This/\ And the cost will vary greatly between the two due to the work involved.

No way I'm getting a permit to run a single gas line to a stove in my kitchen or outdoor cooking area. Sounds like you're either a plumber or city building inspector.

I had it done in two houses and never had an inspection.
To the OP, I don't remember the cost but it wasn't all that much.

I am neither, but I know in EBR you are required to do so. Any licensed plumber will be required to pull permits for this job.
And what does it being a single line have to do with anything? It doesn’t matter if you are adding 1 or 100 lines, the code requirements are the same.

And just who's going to make sure you ran that line with a permit or used a license plumber to do so? It's no big deal to run a single gas line and something most average DIY types can do in an afternoon with the proper tools.
No inspector is randomly going to show up at your house to come inside your home to see if you did this little bit of work with a permit or used a licensed plumber for the job.

I had this exact scenario quoted last year. Quote was $1700 for using TracPipe under pier and beam house.

And if you used black steel pipe likes been used for about 100 years, it probably would cost well under $200 to do it yourself depending on the length of the run and amount of fittings needed.
3/4 inch black steel pipe in 10 ft. lengths run just over $40 at Grainger and 1/2 inch x 10 ft. is a bit higher at $42 and change.
This is for schedule 40 pipe rated at 150 psi at 150 degrees F.

Skip the gas and get an induction stovetop. 1000% better than gas. Anyone who says it's not, hasn't used one. Only downside is you can't use Magnalites.

Holy shitballs. $3200?
You say upstairs. Do you mean in the attic above a second story and the plumbing has to be run down two floors to the ground level?
I ran my own line last year when I renovated my kitchen. I teed off of a fitting on my gas line in my attic. Tied in with CSST and dropped it down a wall to my stovetop. It was easier, admittedly since the walls were open, but it wouldn’t have been much more difficult with the drywall in place. Just would have had to cut access hole to work.

i was very shocked at the price... i decided to wait until winter when its not so hot in the attic... thinking that might drive the price down maybe

Go to new construction neighborhood where they are installing HVAC and tell the guy you need gas pipe run to the kitchen for oven.
