I've asked my plumbing company for a quote, but they won't do so until the meter is installed. I am reluctant to start the project without a relatively clear understanding of total costs.

If you've done this, at your place, about how much did you pay for the interior plumbing from the meter?

Thanks in advance
In case not aware, new construction uses Corrugated Stainless Steel Tubing (CSST) for gas lines in the attic. This tubing is susceptible to damage due to nearby lighting strikes and is suspected if damaged, to be an accelerant of fires for home struck by lightning.

Suggest to discuss with the installer to avoid running gas lines in the attic and use iron pipe in lieu of CSST where possible.
