At the end of the day grout looked good and the gas fired heater was set in place but not operational. The crew informed my wife that the heater was not operational because the natural gas feed was not hooked up because "they are not the gas company". I was never told by patriot that the gas hook up work was not included in the quote and that price was not for a turn key job.

So now what appeared to be a reasonable price quote is far from being reasonable because i need to hire a plumbing contractor to run a gas line to the heater and hire an electrical contractor to install a grounding system for the new gas line.
i know this issue hurts you. On the bright side your safety is assured rather than at the mercy of unprofessional personell.
