Natural gas comes to Gorham

摘要

Mainely Plumbing and Heating has been in business for 28 years, first in Portland, Maine, but in Gorham for the last five. "We've split up into two divisions," co-owner Jim Robinson explained. "We have a service division that services gas boilers, oil boilers, air con ditioning systems, mini-splits and so forth, and then we have an install division that does new houses, new instal- lations, heating, cooling, gas, oil, solar, geothermal, you name it." Mainely currently has 14 employees. In 2008 the PineCrest Inn, a building that's been extant in Gorham since 1825, came under new management. Matt Mattingly set up a bar/restaurant in the nine-room, 5,500-sq.ft. inn, and although business was good, the utility bills were killing him.
