Why Use a Licensed Gas Fitter?

Cut no corners when it comes to gas. From a legal point of view, all work with gas must be completed by an approved, qualified person. In Australia, a licensed gas fitter must complete all gas work to ensure your home remains safe and you are correctly covered on the insurance policy.

Specifically, a gas leak, fire, carbon monoxide poisoning, or explosion. This is hazardous and can cause you to lose your home insurance and incur steep penalties. That’s why choosing a qualified gas plumber is the best choice.

If you need gas fittings in Melbourne, we do all licensed work involving expert and safe gas fittings.

Gas Fitting Process

At Prime Plumb, we try to keep the gas fitting process straightforward and easy to comprehend for our customer base. Whether minor repairs or a complete gas system installation, your squad will not leave you high and dry with all the steps in front of you.

Connecting an existing home

Most people are not aware that even an existing house can be connected to gas. And although it is a bit more work than hooking up a new home to gas, it is something our expert gas fitters can definitely assist you with. From connecting your gas fire place, to putting in a barbeque point, anything is possible. Setting up LPG (bottled gas) to your home instead of being connected to the gas grid is also possible. If you want to know more about what your options are, we are just a simple phone call away.

Here is the standard gas fitting process that our clients have to go through:

Safety inspection

We conduct a thorough gas safety inspection of your system and discuss your requirements.

Fixed quote

An upfront quote will outline the work to be done and all associated costs so that you can prepare for what's coming.

Installation or Maintenance

We handle it for you with safe, quality products from our licensed gas fitters.

Testing

Finally, once all the labour is complete, we conduct detailed safety and pressure testing to confirm properly functioning equipment. This step will not be skipped; we will double-check all those wires, plugs, and connectors to ensure you are safe.

Certified Work

When the job is complete, you will be issued a certified certificate to prove the work has been carried out correctly and within regulations. That way, you know nothing to worry about, and some insurance or roperty records might make this worthwhile.

Communication

From the beginning to the end, it is communication. You are constantly kept in the loop, we are here to answer your questions and offer you items in plain English so that you know what is happening at all times. Prime Plumb guarantees the safe and effective delivery of the gas installation to ensure it complies with local mandates. We care about your safety first.
