Fireplaces, Fire Pits, and Propane for Lakefront Living

Gas work at La Casa is shaped by two things: propane and the outdoors. Almost every property on the west shore runs on propane rather than natural gas, which means different regulator sizing, line calculations, and tank capacity considerations that matter on every install. And west-shore living revolves around the lake and the view: fire pits on the waterfront, BBQ hookups on the deck, patio heaters for cool September evenings, and freestanding gas stoves in the living room replacing the old wood burner everyone's tired of feeding.

Stevenson Mechanical's BC-certified gas fitters handle every gas job a La Casa property needs. Fireplace installs and wood-to-gas conversions, fire pit and BBQ lines, furnace and appliance connections, new line installs for guest cabins and additions, and leak detection. All propane-certified, all permitted, all inspected — because gas work on the west shore carries the same code requirements as any urban home, and your insurer expects the paper trail.

  • Gas fireplace installs & conversions
  • Freestanding gas stove installation
  • Propane line installs & tank-fed work
  • BBQ, fire pit & patio heater hookups
  • Furnace & appliance gas connections
  • Leak detection & line repairs
What We Handle

Gas Services for La Casa Properties

  1. Gas Fireplaces & Stoves

    Inserts, zero-clearance fireplaces, and freestanding gas stoves for La Casa cottages and lakefront living rooms — with proper venting, propane sizing, and framing clearances.

  2. Wood-to-Gas Conversions

    Convert heritage wood stoves and fireplaces to efficient gas. No more chopping wood and hauling it to the west shore — same warmth, none of the labour.

  3. Lakefront Fire Pits & BBQs

    Dedicated propane lines to waterfront fire pits, BBQs, outdoor kitchens, and patio heaters. Permanent hookup means no more lugging portable tanks.

  4. Propane System Work

    Tank-fed propane line installs, regulator sizing, and appliance connections built for La Casa's specific propane infrastructure and BC code.

  5. Guest Cabin & Addition Lines

    Running propane to a guest cabin, carriage house, or new addition. We plan, permit, and run lines sized right the first time.

  6. Leak Detection & Repair

    Smell propane? Leave immediately and call. We locate leaks with proper equipment and repair the line — usually same day.

How It Works

Gas Work, Done the Right Way

  1. Call or Book Online

    Tell us what you need — fireplace, fire pit line, propane hookup, or repair. La Casa calls get the same scheduling priority as any community.

  2. On-Site Assessment

    A certified gas fitter inspects the job and confirms everything needed — permits, venting, propane tank capacity, line sizing. Real conditions, not phone estimates.

  3. Clear Quote

    Written quote covering labour, materials, unit cost, and permits. No pressure to decide on the spot, no hidden charges once work starts.

  4. Permitted Installation

    We pull permits and complete work to BC code — propane and natural gas both. The permit protects your home and your insurance.

  5. Inspection & Sign-Off

    Inspection passed, operation walkthrough, paperwork for records and insurer, manufacturer warranty registered.

Why Stevenson

Why La Casa Trusts Us with Fireplaces & Gas

Propane Specialists

La Casa runs on propane. We're fully certified with real experience — regulator sizing, tank capacity assessment, and propane-specific venting that matters on every install.

Fireplace Design Help

We help pick the right unit for the room — size, style, venting, framing clearances — before you commit to equipment that doesn't quite fit.

Lakefront Outdoor Gas

Fire pits, BBQs, outdoor kitchens — we run propane lines to lakefront features regularly. Clean, permanent hookups that work with the property's layout.

Fully Permitted Work

Permits pulled, inspections booked, paper trail complete. West-shore code compliance matters the same as urban — and your insurer expects it.

Common Questions

Gas Fireplace & Gas Fitting FAQ — La Casa, BC

Yes. Gas fireplace installs in BC require a permit and final inspection — propane or natural gas. We handle the permit and inspection as part of every job.

Yes. We convert existing wood stoves and fireplaces to gas inserts on propane, including line, venting, and commissioning. Most conversions finish in a single day.

Absolutely. Dedicated propane lines to fire pits, BBQs, outdoor kitchens, and patio heaters are routine work across La Casa and the Fintry corridor.

The rotten-egg smell is the primary indicator. Leave immediately, avoid switches or flames, and call us or your propane supplier from outside the building.

Depends on tank size and current draw. We assess total propane demand during the quote and recommend a tank upgrade if needed — before install day, not during.

Insert retrofit or freestanding stove: typically one day. New zero-clearance fireplace with framing and trim: two to three days depending on finishing scope.

Shadd and his team are absolutely wonderful and did a great job. I needed a basement sink plumbed and new washer dryer hookups and they were able to get it done in short order, kept everything tidy and were super easy to deal with. They knew my budget and worked with me to stay within it and gave me everything I needed. They are very professional, skilled and their prices are more than reasonable. I would highly recommend them to everyone!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY US! 4 weeks ago, our hot water and air conditioning quit working on the same day! I called and spoke with the AMAZING Denise, she had Alex out at our shop within the day and he had everything diagnosed and parts ordered, not long after the first appointment, he had our hot water back in working order and then our A/C was repaired after that! Anytime we have had any issues, they have been very prompt to show up on the same day and Alex fixed it all! Such amazing and friendly services! You all have a forever client with Integra Tire and our team moving forward! Thank You!

Plumbing problems are never fun, but we appreciated how Stevenson Mechanical handled the replacement of our sump pump --from booking the appointment to the on-time arrival of our plumber and his friendly, competent service (which included persevering through some unexpected issues). Thank you for your expertise and excellent service!

Yet again outstanding service, owner came to assist very quickly. Answered all my questions. Thanks guys.

This company is great! We needed to have our air conditioning unit disconnected and moved temporarily as we were getting our backyard patio redone. They were able to accommodate our last minute request, they completed the work quickly and got our unit reconnected just in time to beat the heat ! I would highly recommend them!
