Gas Fitting Kensington | Licensed Gas Fitters

The certificate is the part that lasts

Every gas job produces two things. One is an appliance that works. The other is a Certificate of Compliance, issued by the licensed gasfitter, certifying the work was done to standard.

The first is what people care about on the day. The second is what matters in five years, and on these streets that distinction does real work.

Properties here change hands, and the person who commissioned a job is frequently not the person still dealing with the house later. Nobody's memory of who fitted what survives that. A certificate does.

So we issue one on every gas job, without being asked and without it being an extra. Keep it with the property papers, because an insurer will ask and so will a conveyancer at sale.

Gas work on a Kensington property

The certificate outlives the job

A Certificate of Compliance is legally required and is issued by the licensed gasfitter who did the work.

It is the only durable record that an appliance was fitted properly, and it is what an insurer or a conveyancer will ask for.

Unlicensed work leaves no record at all

Gas fitting is licensed work in NSW and there is no small-job exemption.

Work done without a licence cannot be certified, will void a home insurance claim, and leaves nothing behind to show it was safe.

Inherited work is worth checking

Where there is existing gas work and no paperwork, that is a question worth resolving rather than living with.

A leak test and an honest account of the installation's state costs very little against what it settles.

We test what we connect to

Certifying a new appliance on a line losing pressure somewhere else achieves nothing.

So the installation gets pressure tested, and anything else wrong is priced rather than vaguely mentioned.

Keep it with the property papers

The certificate is small, easily lost, and worth a great deal at exactly the moment nobody can find it.

File it with the deeds and the other compliance documents rather than in a kitchen drawer.

Legally required, issued every time, and the part that lasts.

How a gas call-out runs.

Step 01

We ask what is already there

And whether there is paperwork for it. Inherited work with no certificate is worth knowing about before we add to it.

Step 02

Pressure testing a gas installation in Kensington

The installation tested

A pressure test on what we are connecting to, so nothing gets certified over an existing fault.

Step 03

Installing a gas appliance at a Kensington home

Fitted to standard

Installed and commissioned properly, sized for the appliance rather than for whatever was easiest.

Step 04

Handing over a gas compliance certificate in Kensington

Certificate handed over

Issued on the spot, and worth filing with the property papers rather than a kitchen drawer.

Gas fitting questions.

What Kensington locals ask us before booking a plumber.

Ask us yours Licensed plumbing van covering Kensington and the surrounding suburbs

I can smell gas. What do I do?

Get everyone outside first. Do not touch any switch, including lights, and do not use a phone indoors. If the meter is safely on your way out, turn it off. Then ring from outside. This is the one situation where leaving and doing nothing else is exactly right.

What is a Certificate of Compliance?

It is the document a licensed gasfitter issues certifying that gas work was done to the standard. It is legally required, and it is the only durable record that the work was done properly. We issue one on every gas job without being asked.

Why does the certificate matter so much on these streets?

Because it is the part that outlives whoever ordered the work. On a mixed-tenure estate the person commissioning a job is frequently not the person who will still be dealing with the property in five years, and memories of who did what do not survive. The certificate does. Insurers ask for it, conveyancers ask for it at sale, and it is what tells a future owner the appliance was fitted by somebody licensed.

Can I install a gas cooktop myself?

No. Gas is licensed work in NSW with no exemption for a small job or a capable owner. Unlicensed work cannot be certified, which means it will void a home insurance claim and leave nothing on record that it was ever done safely.

There is existing gas work and nobody knows who did it. What now?

Have it checked. If there is no certificate and no record, that is worth resolving rather than wondering about, particularly before a sale. We can test the installation and tell you plainly what state it is in.

Do you test the whole installation?

Yes. Certifying a new appliance on a line that is losing elsewhere achieves nothing, so we pressure test what we are connecting to. If something else is wrong you hear about it before we leave, with a price attached.

What does gas work cost in Kensington?

A leak test on the installation is $150 to $300. A cooktop connected and certified is $250 to $500. A new gas point run and certified is $450 to $1,200 depending on the run. A heater bayonet is $300 to $600. The compliance certificate is included in all of it.
