Gas leaks are nothing to muck around with. They can be dangerous, so they need to be looked at as soon as you notice something odd. Our team has proper testing gear and plenty of experience finding leaks in appliances, pipework and gas metres. We sort out the issue as soon as we can and make sure everything is safe before the gas goes back on. All work is carried out by licensed gas fitters who follow ESV requirements and current BCP standards for Melbourne homes and businesses.

There are a few tell-tale signs that something is going on. You might smell gas near a heater or stove, hear a soft hiss, or notice your gas bill creeping up even though nothing has changed. We run a few simple checks and pressure tests to figure out where the leak is hiding. Once we find the problem, we explain it in everyday language and let you know the best way to sort it out without any fuss.
We bring along the right tools to help us find leaks properly. That includes pressure testing gear, gas sniffers and manometers. We look over your stove, oven, heater, hot water unit and any exposed pipework. If the system is older or if the gas line runs underground, we can do a few extra tests to make sure nothing has worn out or broken down over time.
After we work out exactly where the gas is escaping, we get on with the repair. Sometimes the fix is pretty small and only needs a quick tweak. Other times a worn piece of pipe needs replacing or the appliance itself needs a bit of attention. Once the repair is done, we test the system again to make sure the pressure holds properly and everything is safe to use. If you need a compliance certificate for the job, we can organise that too.
If something smells like gas or you’re not sure whether everything is safe, call us straight away. We can explain what to do next and get one of our licensed gas fitters out to you as soon as we can.
