Adjusters ask for: wide shot of the affected area with a reference object, close-up of the damage, opposite-side shot showing intact structure for comparison, and one photo of any prior gas conversion report or invoice.

Common questions
What if it rains or snows on the booking day?
Roof-side work reschedules to the next dry window at no charge. Interior scopes (firebox, damper, appliance) proceed regardless.
What warranty do you offer on gas conversion in Brantford?
Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.
How long does gas conversion take in Brantford?
1 day is typical for a straightforward job. Bookings in dense downtown zones add 15–20 minutes for parking and staging.
Is gas conversion covered by home insurance in Brantford?
Sudden damage (storm, animal, appliance failure) is usually covered minus deductible. Gradual wear generally isn't. A written pro assessment before the claim call materially improves outcomes.
How much does gas conversion cost in Brantford?
Most Brantford jobs land between $961 and $1,538. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $2,499. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
Do you offer same-day gas conversion in Brantford?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Brantford for most standard scopes.
Do you need a permit for gas conversion in Brantford?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Brantford. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
Do you service condos and heritage homes in Brantford?
Yes. Condo boards in Brantford typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
