Your going to have to trench one way or the other, what they prefer to do in SK is to move the meter to the garage and then feed the house but you can't reuse the line thats already in the ground anyway. This won't cost any more and get's your meter off the house which is nice, cleans things up.

As for heat I haven't gotten to the point of adding gas yet and I'm using a little 220v 5000w heater I picked up at peavey mart, I keep it on the lowest setting so things don't freeze and crank it when i go to work. It's just enough to make things bearable although I wear boots to keep insulated from the floor. It's not cheap (200 a month probably?) but it wont break your bank if it's only for a season. 24x36 well insulated garage.
