Area residents want natural gas. For builders, this means an increased demand for your property. For customers, it means cost savings, efficiency, convenience and comfort.
If you have a residential project with less than two homes and you're interested in natural gas, our sales team is ready to discuss your project’s energy needs and move you through each phase of the process to get your property sold.
In addition to saving money with lower utility bills, Washington Gas also has rebates available for customers in the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.
Washington Gas offers a range of services to help facilitate the process of including natural gas in residential projects. A listing of those services can be found below.
Heat your construction site with natural gas. It saves money, time, resources and, best of all, it's easy.

Washington Gas provides permanent underground gas service and a meter at a specified location on your job site. You or your subcontractor utilize flexible hoses, gas laterals or risers (either temporary or those to be used for the permanent gas loads) inside the building. The hoses connect to your portable heaters for temporary heat wherever and whenever you need it. Because gas is always available—instantly ready any time of day or night—monitoring your fuel supply isn’t required.
To assure that Washington Gas meets your construction heating needs, contact us well in advance to apply for your permanent gas service line, allowing sufficient time to install the service. If you are renovating an old building that has an existing riser in place, you may be able to use the existing riser during construction, so we recommend contacting us before having the riser removed. We’re ready to help you plan ahead so you get the full benefits of natural gas heating during construction.
If you have one meter that you would like to get set, call 844-WASHGAS (927-4427). Please be sure to have your account number available to help our customer service representatives facilitate your request.
If you have a larger project with multiple meters that need to get set, email the Meter Set Process Form to the Contractor Services Desk at contractorservices@washgas.com.
Please be advised it may take up to seven days to set the meter. Prior to meter set, please make sure the following items are completed; incomplete items could cause a delay and/or the appointment to be rescheduled.
