Smell Gas Right Now? Do This First
Get the whole household and any animals outside and well away from the door. Switches stay as they are, nothing gets lit, and phone calls wait until you are standing outside.
From outside, call the gas network's emergency line and report it. They make the property safe. Once they have, ring (02) 4915 2998 and we take over: finding the leak, repairing the line and certifying the fix.
How Do You Know It Is Gas?
Watch for these warning signs:
- The added odorant, a rotten-egg smell, strongest at the meter, a heater, a cooktop or a bayonet point
- A hissing or whistling sound along a line or at a connection
- Burner flames that have turned lazy and yellow instead of crisp blue
- A heater or hot water unit that shuts down for no clear reason
- Dizziness or a dull headache inside that lifts once you are out in the yard
Even one sign justifies a check. A gas detector gives a firm answer; guessing does not.
How We Find and Fix It
The job runs like this:
- 01
Ring or send the form
Call (02) 4915 2998 or use the form to explain the fault. We ask enough to bring the right equipment the first time.
- 02
A fixed price first
A plumber inspects the job and names a fixed figure up front. Nothing gets started until you give the go-ahead.
- 03
Trace, repair, test
The detector pinpoints the leak, the faulty section or fitting gets repaired, then a pressure test proves the pipework holds before the burners are fired up again.
- 04
Covered for a year
Every job carries our 365-day warranty on all work. If something we did isn't right, ring the same number.
What Shapes the Repair Price?
We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead.
- Where the leak is, as a bayonet on an open wall is simple to reach while a fitting buried in a cavity or under paving is not
- Whether one fitting fails the test or a whole length of pipe does, since those are very different repairs
- The appliance side of the work, if the leak has damaged a heater or cooktop connection that needs rebuilding
- Tracing it overnight, which puts the job on the after-hours rate agreed at the start

When We're Not the Right Call
Gas escaping at the meter, or from the service pipe running to it from the street, sits with the distributor, and their faults service handles it. Everything downstream of the meter is ours: the house pipework, the fittings and the appliance connections. Fitting a brand new cooktop or heater is covered under connecting gas appliances.
Questions People Ask Before Booking
What should I do first if I can smell gas inside my Aberglasslyn home?
Leave the house with everyone in it and leave the power alone. Report the smell to the gas distributor's emergency service from the footpath, then call us. When the distributor has made the site safe, we trace the escaping gas, replace the failed fitting and prove the pipework tight before supply is turned back on.
Do you come out to gas leaks in Aberglasslyn after hours?
Yes. A suspected leak is never parked until business hours, and we are Available 24/7. An after-hours job is quoted with that rate included, and the price you approve before booking is the one you pay at the end.
Can a gas leak hide behind a wall in a project-built home here?
It can. The houses here were built in one wave through the 1990s and 2000s, so the fittings behind the walls are all of a similar age. A leak at a buried joint or a connection inside a wall can build up without a strong smell at first, which is why we use a detector rather than guessing.
Is a leak at the meter my job or the gas network's?
The meter and the service pipe feeding it belong to the distributor, so a leak there is reported to their faults service. Everything from the meter onwards, through the walls to each appliance connection, is ours to find and repair.
