Utility Bill Assistance

Whether you are a tenant or homeowner, our Utility Assistance services include payment of some or all of your current PG&E or Propane service bill. Depending on your circumstance; whether you need help paying your bill or keeping your utilities from being shut off, we may be able to help. We work with most propane providers across the tri-county area and make payments directly to the propane vendor on your behalf. Although we make an immediate pledge to the utility provider, please note that payments may take 6-12 weeks.
