More gas problems

[bobquasit]

Teri called City Hall, and they can get an inspector to check out our work on Friday - BUT.

It turns out that the people who did the work - Plumbing Solutions - were supposed to pull a permit from the city before doing the work. Without a permit, the work cannot be inspected and the gas cannot be reconnected.

The permit can be pulled retroactively, but Plumbing Solutions will have to do that; we can't do it ourselves, of course.

Teri called Plumbing Solutions, and they're going to check our file and get back to us.

Well, I was tempted to do another post saying "I'm writing this from the police station, because I'm being booked for violating the city ordinance on having unauthorized gas line work done" - but the truth is, the company has apparently gone back and got the necessary permit, and the inspector is going to come out on Friday morning. I don't know how long it will take for him/her to contact National Grid and for us to get our gas back, though.

In the meantime we're going to be grilling, using the crock pot, and eating out more.
