Which Gas Service Do You Need?

Gas appliance installation

A new cooktop or freestanding oven needs a certificate as well as a connection. Our appliance installation work covers the bayonet or hard connection, the leak test and the paperwork you keep.

Gas leak detection and repair

Rotten-egg smell in the house means you get out first and ring second. Our gas leak repairs cover the detector sweep, the new fitting and the pressure test that proves the pipe is sealed.

How Do You Spot a Gas Fault?

Gas faults announce themselves in a handful of ways, and none of them should be ignored:

  • A smell like rotten eggs anywhere inside or near a wall where a line runs.
  • Burners lighting lazy and yellow where they once burned crisp blue.
  • Hissing near the meter, a regulator or an appliance connection.
  • Appliances that cut out, or pilot lights that keep going out.
  • Higher gas use with nothing in the house having changed.

Treat any of those as urgent. After-hours gas calls start on the emergency plumbing page.

The Gas Job, Step by Step

  1. 01

    Ring or send the form

    Call (02) 4093 0558 or use the form to explain the fault. We ask enough to bring the right equipment the first time.

  2. 02

    A fixed price first

    A plumber inspects the job and names a fixed figure up front. Nothing gets started until you give the go-ahead.

  3. 03

    Detect, repair, test

    Gas detectors trace the fault, fittings rated for the job make the repair, and the line gets a pressure test before relighting.

  4. 04

    Covered for a year

    Every job carries our 365-day warranty on all work. If something we did isn't right, ring the same number.

What Goes Into a Gas Quote?

  • Access to the line Swapping a benchtop cooktop takes less time than threading new pipe beneath a fibro cottage on stumps.
  • Pipe material New copper, ageing galvanised or polyethylene each call for different fittings and time.
  • Parts Regulators, connectors and appliance fittings are itemised in the figure.
  • After-hours After-hours gas work runs at a different rate, named when you ring, before the booking is made.

Salt Air and Winter on the Channel

Salty wind is hard on gas hardware

Swansea sits at the channel entrance, and the wind off the water corrodes regulators, bayonet fittings and bare copper faster than the same parts last a few streets inland. Brass and copper close to the water can pit and weep sooner than the same part inland.

The housing mix sets the work

Census figures put separate houses at 68 per cent and units at 21.8 per cent, from postwar fibro and weatherboard places to later brick veneer. In an older cottage, gas pipe may have been added to as appliances changed, and each join in that pipework gets checked during a service.

A Word From a Customer

"We had an urgent gas problem that required immediate attention at our home…on a Friday afternoon. … Identified the issue, fixed and tested" Lee

When Another Trade Owns the Job

When we're not the right call: gas escaping at the meter itself, or from the supply pipe in the street, is for the distributor to fix. Report that to them from outside and they will isolate it.

Once that is done, we repair every line and fitting that serves your house. If the fault is in an appliance's wiring or power point, an electrician fixes that part.

Questions Before the Gas Work Starts

Do you install gas cooktops and BBQs in Swansea homes?

Yes. A licensed gas fitter connects the cooktop, oven, barbecue, pool heater or bayonet point, whether the house is a mid-century fibro cottage or a later brick-veneer build. You get a compliance certificate once the connection passes its test.

What does a gas fitter do that a general plumber doesn't?

Gas work sits on its own licence, on top of the plumbing licence. Anything carrying gas from the meter through to each appliance is legally gas fitting, from installs and disconnections to leak repairs and compliance certificates. Our crew holds both, so water and gas are handled by the same people.

I can smell gas in my Swansea house. What should I do right now?

Get everyone outside, leave switches and appliances alone, and call the gas emergency number once you are clear of the house. When the distributor has isolated the supply, we find the escape on your own pipework, replace the failed fitting, and hold the line under test pressure before anything is relit.

Does salt air really wear out gas fittings faster here?

It does. The town sits on low ground at the channel, and the same marine air that ages hot water tanks also attacks regulators, connectors and copper on foreshore lots. A gas service check picks up corroded fittings before they leak.
