Gas Fitting Services in Melbourne

Gas work isn’t something you want done by just anyone. I’m a licensed gasfitter and I take it seriously — whether it’s a new appliance installation, a gas line extension, or a leak investigation. I work across Melbourne’s inner south-east and can usually get to you the same day.

What I Do

I handle all residential gas fitting work — new gas appliance connections (cooktops, ovens, heaters, BBQs), gas meter upgrades, pipe extensions, pressure testing, compliance certificates, and gas leak detection. If you can smell gas, that’s a call-me-now situation. Don’t wait.

Gas Appliance Installations

Connecting a new gas cooktop or oven? It needs to be done by a licensed gasfitter — full stop. I’ll disconnect the old unit, connect the new one, test for leaks, and issue a compliance certificate on the spot. Same goes for gas heaters, hot water systems, and outdoor BBQ points.

Gas Leak Detection

If you can smell gas in your home, leave the house, don’t touch any switches, and call your gas company to shut off the supply at the meter. Then call me. I’ll locate the leak, carry out the repair, pressure-test the line, and make sure everything is safe before gas is restored.

Gas Pressure Testing

Selling a property? Renovating? You may need a gas test certificate. I carry out full pressure tests on domestic gas systems and issue the paperwork you need.

Why Licensed Matters

Unlicensed gas work voids your home insurance and is a serious safety risk. When I do the job, you get a compliance certificate — proof the work was done by a licensed gasfitter, to code. That protects you and your family.

Areas I Cover

I service Brighton, Bentleigh, Bentleigh East, Carnegie, Caulfield, Glen Huntly, Hampton, Moorabbin, Sandringham, Cheltenham, and surrounding suburbs in Melbourne’s inner south-east.

Licensed Gas Fitting Across Melbourne's Inner South East

Victoria has strict rules around gas work, and for good reason — unlicensed gas fitting is illegal, voids your home insurance, and is a genuine safety risk. Every job I do comes with a compliance certificate issued on the spot. That's not optional — it's the law, and it's what protects you and your family.

I work regularly across Brighton, Hampton, Sandringham, Bentleigh, Cheltenham, Moorabbin, and surrounding Bayside and Glen Eira suburbs. If you need a licensed gasfitter in Melbourne's inner south-east, I can usually be there the same day or next morning.

Gas Appliance Connections — What's Involved

A lot of homeowners don't realise you can't connect a gas appliance yourself, even if it looks straightforward. Every new gas connection — cooktop, oven, heater, BBQ point — requires a licensed gasfitter to disconnect the old unit, connect the new one, test for leaks, and issue a certificate. I'll handle all of that, usually within a couple of hours.

Outdoor BBQ gas points are popular in Brighton and Hampton — I install those regularly. Running a line from the meter to an outdoor entertaining area is a straightforward job if the pipe run is clear, and it's something I can quote on-site.

Gas Fitting — Frequently Asked Questions

I can smell gas — what do I do?Leave the house immediately. Don't touch any switches. Call your gas distributor (Multinet or AusNet) to shut off the supply at the meter. Once the gas is off and the house has aired out, call me to locate and repair the leak before gas is restored.
