In detail

Gas work is the part of plumbing with the least room for interpretation. The line is sized for the appliance load, the run is supported and protected, and the whole installation is pressure tested for leaks before an appliance is lit.

Changeovers are where problems hide. An existing line that carried an old low-input appliance will not necessarily carry a new high-input one, and connecting it anyway is how you end up with an appliance that underperforms or a system that is unsafe.

Commissioning means the appliance is checked running, not just connected.

From a completed job

How a job runs

Four steps, start to finish

  1. Tell us what is happening

    A message with the suburb, the problem and a photo. Most jobs can be narrowed down to one or two likely causes before anyone gets in a van.

  2. Looked at on site

    Quotes get worked out against your actual setup, not a price list. What is behind the wall changes the job, so the job gets priced after someone has seen it.

  3. Price agreed before work starts

    The price is agreed up front. If something genuinely unexpected turns up once things are open, work stops and you get a message before it continues.

  4. Installed, tested, commissioned

    Pipework tested before it is covered, appliances checked running rather than just connected, and the site left clean. Captions on completed jobs regularly note testing and commissioning.

Questions

Before you book

Send the suburb, a description of the job and a photo if you can. Most jobs get narrowed down before anyone attends, then the price is confirmed on site and agreed before work starts.

Yes. Their public positioning covers residential and commercial plumbing, drainage, gas fitting and maintenance. Ask with the suburb and what is happening.

The quoted price is agreed before work starts and covers the labour and materials for that scope. If something genuinely unexpected turns up once things are open, work stops and you get a message before it continues.
