Photos adjusters actually want
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.

Sudden events (storm, animal, appliance failure) usually settle at $943–$1,509 minus deductible. Gradual wear (freeze-thaw over years) is almost always denied — document the triggering event carefully.
Common questions
Do you offer same-day gas conversion in Oakville?
Usually — call before 9am and we'll confirm a same-day arrival window inside Oakville for most standard scopes.
Do you need a permit for gas conversion in Oakville?
Cleaning and inspection are permit-exempt in Oakville. Structural masonry, liner replacement, or a new appliance install typically need one — we pull it as part of the job when required.
What warranty do you offer on gas conversion in Oakville?
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.
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.
Is gas conversion covered by home insurance in Oakville?
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 Oakville?
Most Oakville jobs land between $943 and $1,509. Complex access or heritage masonry can reach $2,453. We quote fixed price after a free on-site scope.
When's the best time of year for gas conversion in Oakville?
Late September through mid-November with Oakville averaging 119cm of snow starting December. Spring (April–May) is the second window and often 10–15% cheaper.
