The licensed gas fitters Sydney calls when it smells gas
Gas is not a job for a general handyman. Every gas leak we attend is handled by a licensed gas fitter carrying electronic leak detection gear, a calibrated manometer, and the fittings to make your property safe on the first visit; not booked back for next week.
From a rotten-egg smell in a Newtown terrace at 2am to a failed meter test on a Mosman renovation, our family-run Sydney crew has traced, isolated and repaired gas leaks in homes, cafes and commercial kitchens since 2010. Every job starts by making the property safe, ends with a pressure test and a Certificate of Compliance, and never leaves a live gas fault behind.
- NSW licensed gas fitters (Lic 305428C)
- Work certified to AS/NZS 5601
- Family-run & fully insured since 2010

What changes when a licensed gas fitter handles the leak?
Gas work is one of the few trades where a mistake can be fatal; in NSW it is illegal for anyone but a licensed gas fitter to carry it out. Here is exactly what shifts when a licensed Sydney gas fitter handles the leak instead of a handyman or a DIY attempt.
Before
Handyman, DIY or “mate who does gas”
- The visible symptom has no confirmed source
- A repair is chosen before the cause is checked
- Access or price changes are left unexplained
- The same symptom returns without further testing
- There is no clear handover record
After
Licensed Fixed Today gas fitter
- The fault is checked with a suitable diagnostic method
- The likely cause and repair options are explained
- The scope and price are approved before paid work
- The result is tested before handover
- Relevant invoice, warranty and compliance records are supplied
The exact thread you’ll see on an emergency gas callout
No marketing fluff. Every emergency gas customer gets a thread like this; logged, fitter assigned, ETA, vehicle ID, knock at the door. When gas is involved, you always know exactly who is coming and when.
- Logged
A licensed gas fitter assigned, in writing.
Your fitter’s name, vehicle and ETA confirmed by SMS within minutes of the call; and safety instructions while they drive. Not a queue, not a callback.
- Guided
We keep you safe until we arrive.
We confirm you’re out of the building, talk you through isolating the meter if it’s safe, and stay on the line if the smell is strong. Your safety comes before the repair.
- Warned
5-minute heads-up at the door.
We text when the gas fitter is 5 minutes away, including vehicle and plate, so you know who’s knocking before you approach the property.
- Made safe
Nothing left live.
We do not leave until the leak is located, the installation is pressure-tested tight, and every appliance is safe; or the supply is isolated and clearly tagged.
We turn up when we say we will; here is the proof
Every gas job we attended today, with the booked window, the actual arrival time, and whether we hit it. We publish the misses too; and waive the call-out fee when we cause one.
What other gas trades won’t tell you.
Side-by-side with what most homeowners actually get when they call around for gas leak work; no spin, no fine print. Just what we include as standard, and what tends to quietly get skipped elsewhere when the pressure is on to “just stop the smell”.

What happens when you call us about gas in Sydney?
Whether it’s a 2am gas smell, a failed meter test before settlement, or a commercial kitchen shut down by a leak, the process is the same: make it safe, find it, prove it’s fixed. Here is exactly what to expect.
Tell us what you can smell or see
Where the smell is strongest, whether it’s near an appliance or the meter, and whether you hear hissing. We use this to triage urgency and load the right detection and repair gear before we leave.
Booking Recorded
Visit details confirmed
Licensed gas fitter arrives and makes it safe
First priority on arrival is safety: isolate the supply where needed, ventilate, and confirm the property is safe to work in before any diagnosis begins.
On-site Assessment
Fault checked in context
We locate the leak, not just the smell
Using an electronic gas detector, leak-detection fluid on joints, and a manometer to measure pressure drop across the installation, we pinpoint the exact source; a fitting, an appliance connection, a corroded line or the meter.
Scope and Price
Confirmed before repair
Repair, pressure test, then certify
We repair the fault with approved fittings to AS/NZS 5601, re-test the whole installation until it holds pressure, safely re-commission your appliances, and issue a Certificate of Compliance before we leave.
Completion Check
Result and records reviewed
Emergency call; we triage in 60 seconds
Strong gas smell, hissing, or someone feeling unwell. We confirm you’re out of the building, talk you through the meter if it’s safe, and dispatch the closest licensed gas fitter on priority.
Urgent Call Logged
Risk details recorded
We keep you safe while we’re en route
We stay on the line if needed; no switches, no phones inside, no ignition sources, doors and windows open, everyone outside. By the time we arrive the risk is already contained.
Immediate Safety
Next safe step explained
Isolate and make safe on arrival
We shut off and isolate the affected section or the whole supply, ventilate, and confirm the atmosphere is safe before opening up any fitting or appliance.
Visit Arranged
Available window confirmed
Find it, fix it, prove it’s gone
Leak located electronically, repaired to standard, and the installation pressure-tested tight. If a part must be ordered, we leave the supply safely isolated and tagged, never live.
Work Recorded
Outcome explained
Site review and access requirements
Restaurant, cafe, commercial kitchen, strata or industrial site? We coordinate with management, out-of-hours access and shutdown windows so a gas fault doesn’t close you for a full trading day.
Access Details
Entry and parking recorded
Compliance and SWMS
Gas fitting licence, $10M public liability, SWMS and JSA documents prepared and supplied before we step on site; no chasing paperwork mid-emergency.
Responsibility Check
Shared services considered
Isolate, test and scope the repair
We isolate the affected line or appliance, pressure test the installation to find every leak, and give you a clear written scope with options before the repair proceeds.
Fault Located
Evidence guides the repair
Repair around your operations
After-hours and staged repairs available to keep you trading. We re-commission every commercial appliance, pressure test, and provide the compliance certificate for your records and insurer.
Next Step Agreed
Access, scope and price clear
Safe, certified and warranted; in writing
Every gas leak repair is carried out by a licensed gas fitter, verified with a pressure test, and covered by our workmanship warranty. You get a Certificate of Compliance for the gas work and a plain-English invoice; no fine print, no exclusions buried in a PDF.
Licensed plumber vs. unlicensed worker
Plumbing work in NSW must be carried out by a licensed plumber. It is not just a formality, licensing protects your home, your insurance, and your right to recourse if something goes wrong.
What you get
- Work is insured and meets the National Plumbing Code
- Compliance Certificate issued for every job
- Home insurance and warranty stay valid
- Statutory warranty backed by NSW Fair Trading
- Clear path to dispute resolution if needed
What you risk
- Work may breach the NSW Plumbing and Drainage Act
- No Compliance Certificate: issues at resale
- Home insurance claims commonly denied
- No statutory warranty on the work performed
- Limited recourse: Fair Trading cannot assist
