Hiring a Gasfitter in Canberra

Before hiring any gasfitter in Canberra, use this checklist to protect yourself and ensure you're working with a properly licensed and insured professional.

  1. Verify they hold a gas fitting licence, not just a plumbing licence — Gas fitting requires a separate licence or endorsement in every Australian state. A plumber without a gas fitting endorsement is not legally permitted to work on gas lines or appliances. Ask to see the gas-specific licence and verify it on the state register before any work begins.
  2. Ask whether they will issue a gas compliance certificate — After completing gas work, a licensed gasfitter must issue a gas compliance certificate (or gas safety certificate) and lodge it with the relevant authority. This certificate confirms the installation has been pressure-tested and is safe. Without it, your gas supplier may refuse to connect supply.
  3. Check if they are experienced with your specific gas type — Australia uses two main types of reticulated gas: natural gas (methane) and LPG (propane/butane). Appliances and regulators differ between the two, and incorrect conversion can be lethal. Confirm the gasfitter has specific experience with your gas type, especially in regional areas where LPG is common.
  4. Ask about ventilation requirements for your installation — Gas appliances require adequate ventilation to prevent carbon monoxide build-up. An experienced gasfitter will assess your space for combustion air supply and flue requirements before quoting — not discover ventilation issues after the appliance is installed.
  5. Confirm they carry a gas leak detector and pressure testing equipment — Professional gasfitters should carry electronic gas leak detectors and manometers for pressure testing pipework. If they rely solely on soapy water for leak detection, they may miss small leaks that an electronic detector would catch. Pressure testing newly installed pipework is mandatory under Australian Standards.
Pro Tip

Get at least three quotes and compare not just price, but response time, warranty on workmanship, and whether the quote includes parts.

Red Flags to Watch For
  • No gas compliance certificate issued after completing work — A licensed gasfitter must issue and lodge a gas compliance certificate (or gas safety certificate) for all regulated gas work. Without this document, the work is not legally compliant, your gas supplier may disconnect supply, and you have no proof the installation was pressure-tested and safe.
  • Skips the pressure test on new or modified gas pipework — Australian Standards require all new or modified gas pipework to be pressure-tested before commissioning. A gasfitter who connects appliances without first conducting a documented pressure test is cutting a critical safety step that exists to detect leaks before gas flows through the system.
  • Uses non-approved fittings or flexible connectors beyond their rated life — Gas fittings and flexible connectors must be approved to Australian Standards (AS 5601). Flexible gas connectors have a limited service life — typically 10 years — printed on the label. A gasfitter who installs unapproved fittings or reuses expired flexible connectors is creating a potential gas leak hazard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a gas fitting licence different from a plumbing licence?

Yes. Although many plumbers also hold a gas fitting endorsement, the two are separate licence categories in every state. A plumbing licence covers water supply and drainage. A gas fitting licence covers gas reticulation and appliance connections. Always check that the tradesperson holds the specific gas fitting credential, not just a plumbing licence.

How often should gas appliances be serviced?

Energy Safe Victoria and other state regulators recommend servicing gas heaters every 2 years and other gas appliances at least every 2–5 years. Appliances older than 10 years should be inspected annually. Regular servicing helps detect carbon monoxide leaks, deteriorating seals, and burner issues before they become dangerous.

What are the signs of a gas leak in my home?

Common signs include a rotten-egg smell (added to natural gas as a safety measure), a hissing sound near gas lines or appliances, dead vegetation near a buried gas pipe, and higher-than-expected gas bills. If you smell gas, do not operate electrical switches, open flames, or mobile phones — evacuate immediately and call your gas emergency number (typically 13 19 09 for natural gas).

Can I convert my gas appliances from natural gas to LPG or vice versa?

Some appliances can be converted using a manufacturer-approved conversion kit, but this must only be done by a licensed gasfitter. The conversion involves changing injector jets, adjusting regulators, and re-testing the appliance. Not all appliances are convertible, and an incorrect conversion can cause carbon monoxide poisoning or explosion.

Do I need a gasfitter to connect a gas barbecue?

If you are connecting a barbecue to a fixed bayonet fitting or natural gas point, yes — this is regulated gas work. However, connecting a portable barbecue to a standalone LPG cylinder using a standard hose and regulator does not require a licensed gasfitter. If in doubt, contact your state gas safety regulator.

How do I verify a gasfitter's licence in ACT?

You can verify any gasfitter's licence using TradieVerify's free search tool or directly through the Access Canberra register. Enter the gasfitter's name or licence number to confirm their licence status, class, and any disciplinary history.
