Which Gas Appliances Do We Connect?

If it burns gas and sits in or around a house, it is on our list:

Cookers and wall ovens, including a switch away from an old electric range
Wall furnaces and room heaters, flued or unflued as the room permits
Barbecue outlets on a verandah or patio, as a bayonet or a fixed hard line
Heaters for a pool or spa, matched to how much water they warm
Extra gas outlets for a kitchen or laundry renovation

Each job is quoted as one fixed figure covering the pipe work, the fitting and the certification, so nothing gets added later.

How Do You Know the Connection Is Safe?

No flame until the pressure holds

Each new line is pressurised with the appliance valved off, and the gauge reading is written onto the paperwork you keep. Flared joints are checked, the appliance is commissioned to the maker's specification, and a gas compliance certificate is completed.

Keep that certificate with the house papers

, because a buyer or an inspector may ask for it. It is issued on small jobs as well as large ones.

How the Install Is Priced

What changes the price of an install:

Distance: how many metres of new gas pipe it takes to reach the appliance, and the walls in the way
Clipped under the floor or buried: a trench through damp ground takes longer
The appliance: a pool heater calls for a bigger line and a plinth, a cooker may reuse the existing point
Outdoor points by the water get marine-grade fittings, a small extra that outlasts standard brass

We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead.

Cottages, Closes and Salt-Tinged Air

Different houses, different pipe runs

Rathmines homes date from postwar weatherboard and fibro cottages through brick veneer, then the closes cut from Crown land in 1982 and the lakefront houses of the 1990s. A raised timber cottage lets a gas line run through the subfloor; a newer slab home can mean clipping the pipe along an outside wall or trenching around it. At the last census 42.1 per cent of homes had four or more bedrooms, so long runs to a back patio are part of the job.

Then the air gets a say

Brackish breeze off the lake works on every fitting left outside, so a barbecue bayonet or heater flue near the water is quoted with parts that stand up to it. On the low blocks by the foreshore, groundwater keeps a trench wet, and the quote allows for that.

When We're Not the Right Call

Some work sits outside a gas fitter's licence, and we name it at the quote stage:

A new heater that needs its own power outlet installed calls for an electrician to add it.
A supply fault at the meter or in the street main goes to the gas network.
A gas smell inside the house right now is a safety call first: get outside, then read the gas leak page from your phone.

Appliance Questions From the Western Shore

Can a BBQ point be added to an existing deck in Rathmines?

Yes, as long as a gas line can reach the deck safely. The pipe route is priced first, then a bayonet or fixed outlet goes in with an isolation valve close by. Near the lake it gets corrosion-resistant fittings, and the outlet is pressure-tested, then certified, before the first barbecue.

Do you install gas pool heaters on the low blocks near the water?

Yes. A pool heater needs a solid base, a gas pipe big enough for the burner and room to vent, and foreshore ground holds water, so the spot is checked before the heater is ordered. One quote covers the gas line, the base and commissioning.

Can you connect an appliance I bought from a retailer?

Yes. A cooker, oven or heater you bought from a store gets connected, tested and certified like any other. If it arrives damaged or short of parts, the fitter points that out before any gas work starts, so you can take it up with the store.

Will the salt air shorten the life of an outdoor gas fitting here?

It can. Salty lake air pits bare brass and steel, which is why outdoor points near the water get corrosion-resistant parts. A bayonet cap or isolation valve out in the weather still deserves a look now and then, and the fitter shows you what to check at handover.
