Leave the building. Do not flip switches, unplug anything or use your phone inside — a spark is a spark. Once you are outside and away, call your gas utility's emergency line first; they will come out at any hour and make it safe at no charge. Then call us to find and repair the fault so the gas can be turned back on.

No. In Ontario, gas work must be done by a TSSA-certified gas technician — it is not a grey area, and there is no homeowner exemption the way there is for some minor electrical work. Uncertified gas work voids your home insurance and will be flagged the moment any technician or inspector sees it.

The price follows the distance from the meter and what is in the way. A short run through an unfinished basement to a deck right above it is straightforward. Crossing a finished basement, boring under a walkway or reaching a pool house at the back of the lot is where the hours go. We quote a fixed price once we have seen the route.

New gas lines and appliance installations generally require a permit and inspection; a like-for-like appliance swap on an existing correctly sized line often does not. We tell you which one you are in before quoting, pull the permit when it is needed, and leave you the paperwork.

If the manufacturer makes a conversion kit for that exact model, yes — and only with that kit. Drilling out orifices or improvising is dangerous and illegal. Send us the model number off the rating plate and we will confirm whether a kit exists before you buy anything.

Most residential gas runs are a half to full day, including the pressure test, which has to hold before we connect anything. Inspections are usually booked within a few business days of completion, and your appliance can normally be used as soon as we have tested and tagged it.
