Licensed Gas Plumbing Services in Sydney
What is gas plumbing?
Gas plumbing in Sydney involves installing and connecting the gas pipes so that your appliances can run on gas. As gas line fitters, we also install gas appliances and handle gas leaks. Our expert gas line plumbers will fit gas plumbing lines and gas meters, connect the gas service line to your property, and detect possible gas leaks.
Since gas and water pipes often run side by side, our team also handles backflow prevention, blocked drains and water and leak detection so you can book gas and water jobs together.

I Can Smell Gas In My Home But I Cannot Find Where It Is Coming From. What Should I Do Right Now?
Treat any gas smell as urgent, even if it seems faint.
- Don’t use light switches, power points or your phone inside the house, as a spark can ignite leaking gas.
- Put out any naked flames and open doors and windows to let the gas clear.
- If you can reach the meter safely, turn the gas off at the valve.
- Get everyone out of the house, including pets.
- Once you’re outside, call Jemena’s faults and emergencies line on 131 909. If anyone feels dizzy or unwell, call 000.
When the area is safe, book us for gas leak detection. We’ll find the source with pressure testing, repair the fitting or line and test the system before turning your gas back on.
My Gas Hot Water System Stopped Working Overnight. Is This A Gas Issue Or A Plumbing Issue?
It depends on what you see. Check the pilot light window first. If the pilot has gone out and won’t stay lit, the thermocouple, gas valve or gas supply is usually at fault, and that’s a job for a licensed gas fitter.
If the pilot is lit but the water is cold, the burner or thermostat may have failed. Water pooling around the base points to a leaking tank or a faulty relief valve, which is a plumbing issue.
Check that other gas appliances like your cooktop still work. If they don’t, the problem may sit with the supply or meter. We handle gas and plumbing repairs, so one visit covers the diagnosis and the fix.
Do I Need A Licensed Gas Fitter To Connect A New Appliance Or Can I Do It Myself?
You need a licensed gas fitter. In NSW, connecting, disconnecting or moving any gas appliance is regulated work and only a licensed gas fitter can do it. A poor connection can leak gas or produce carbon monoxide, which you can’t see or smell. DIY gas work may also void your home insurance and the appliance warranty.
