What's usually behind it in Forest Hill
Forest Hill homes from the 60s and 70s often have long gas runs to ducted heaters and hot water. Pressure drops are common on these older lines.
Gas work has to be done by a licensed gas fitter and certified. We repair leaks, run new gas lines, connect cooktops, ovens, heaters and BBQs, and issue the compliance paperwork when we're done. For Forest Hill customers, that usually means same-day service.
Most Forest Hill homes are post-war and 1970s brick veneer on decent-sized blocks, which means long sewer runs and plenty of tree roots.
