Gas Fitter Abermain
Abermain Plumbing Co is the licensed gas fitter for Abermain homes, connecting new cooktops and heaters and tracing leaks in old gas pipe. A fitter looks at the job and gives you a set price first, and a call to (02) 4063 3475 gets it booked.
Because Abermain Plumbing Co also does the water side, a gas heater with a leaking cold inlet or a blocked relief drain is sorted in the same visit.

Abermain Gas Fitting Services
Gas work splits into putting new things on the line and fixing what is wrong with it.
Gas Appliance Installation: new cooktops for kitchen renovations, heaters for cold living rooms, barbecue outlets and pool heaters, with the pipe to each one matched to its burner. Details are under installing gas appliances.
Gas Leak Detection and Repair: a faint smell by the meter or a stove, found with a detector and a pressure test, then fixed once you approve the price. Details are under tracing a gas leak.
Smaller gas jobs handled here:
- Extending the supply pipe into an extension or a new kitchen
- Capping a line when an old heater or stove is taken out
- Disconnecting and reconnecting appliances around a renovation
- Adding a bayonet point for a portable heater or outdoor cooker
When Does an Old Gas Line Need Attention?
Homes in the village date from the pit years to the 1980s, and some were put on gas after they were built. Signs the line needs a fitter:
- Burners that burn lazy and yellow-tipped, where they should be a crisp blue
- A faint smell by a heater or stove that you notice mostly with the windows shut
- Pipe that passes through a wall or floor with no sleeve around it, left from a past conversion
- A heater or hot water unit that drops out, which can mean low supply pressure and not a faulty appliance
Each of those needs a licensed fitter and proper test gear. Do not wait for a handy day.
Is a Gas Smell Always an Emergency?
Yes, until proven otherwise. Open doors on your way out, keep people and pets outside, and do not operate switches, the stove or a phone inside the house. The distributor's emergency number comes first; once they have made the site safe, we repair the leak on the pipework you own.

The gas work is done to standard
The fitter runs or repairs the pipe, tests every joint under pressure, lights each appliance and checks the flame before leaving.
- 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.
How the Gas Quote Gets Built
We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead.
What sits behind that figure on a gas job:
- How far the new pipe travels from the meter, since a pool heater down the yard needs far more than a stove swap
- Repairs the existing line needs first, where an old conversion fails its pressure test
- Getting to the pipe, as a low subfloor under a weatherboard cottage slows the work
- A night or weekend visit, which is charged at the after-hours rate

When We're Not the Right Call
Anything wrong with the meter or the main running under the road belongs to the gas distributor, not a private fitter. Likewise, an ignition unit that fails because its power point is dead needs an electrician.

Gas Fitting Questions From the Village
Do you install gas appliances in older Abermain cottages?
Yes. Before a new cooktop, oven or heater is connected in an older cottage, the fitter tests the existing line so the appliance is not joined to a hidden fault. The price covers both the check and the connection.
What should I do about a gas smell in the house?
Leave the house with the family and pets, do not flick lights or use a phone indoors, and ring the distributor's gas emergency number. After they declare the site safe, call (02) 4063 3475 to locate and repair the leak in your own pipework.
Can you check a gas line that was converted decades ago?
Yes. Homes here were connected to gas at different times, so old joints and pipe passing through walls without a sleeve can sit behind a stove. The fitter pressure-tests the line, lists anything that fails, and prices those repairs before a new appliance goes on.
Does gas hot water count as gas fitting?
Yes. Connecting a gas storage heater or a continuous-flow unit is licensed gas work. Choosing and sizing the heater is covered on the hot water hub, while a weak or leaking supply line to it is a gas fitting job.
