Gas is the one trade where 'she'll be right' is illegal — every connection, appliance and repair legally requires a licensed gasfitter, and honestly, physics agrees with the law on this one. Installations, repairs and leak work across Greater Geelong, certificates included.

New appliances connected, tested and certified — including conversions between natural gas and LPG jets.
Space heaters and ducted units installed and serviced — a pre-winter service also guards against carbon monoxide, which has no smell and no sense of humour.
Pressure testing and electronic detection to find leaks; repairs that hold pressure before the gas goes back on. Smell gas now? These steps first.
Extra heater points, BBQ connections and new pipe runs, sized and installed to standard.
Gas storage and continuous-flow systems installed and repaired — see our hot water service.
Bottle installations and changeovers for Bellarine and Golden Plains properties beyond the mains.
