We work everywhere from the old railway village out to the newest estates, and the Bald Hills page lists the full range of what we do. Here's how gas fitting works in Queensland.
From the Meter or Cylinder to the Appliance
Gas work means installing or removing a gas system, altering or repairing one, and servicing, testing or certifying it, plus all the pipework and connections that feed it. It makes no difference whether the fuel is natural gas or LPG in cylinders or a tank. Both fall under the same rules.
That scope runs from the meter or cylinder right through to the appliance:
- Running new gas lines and connections
- Installing or swapping cooktops, heaters and other gas appliances
- Servicing and testing existing systems
- Certifying finished installations
Servicing counts as gas work too. Queensland guidance says cookers, barbecues and hot water systems need periodic checks and servicing from a licensed gasfitter, with installation and use per the manufacturer's instructions. So a gasfitter's week is as much about testing and tuning as new installs.
Who Receives the Gas Certificate
When a gas installation or alteration is finished, the person who did the work hands the owner a gas system compliance certificate immediately on completion, certifying the job is compliant. It's the paper trail that says the work was done by the right person to the right standard.
A few details worth knowing:
- The certificate belongs to the owner of the property where the work was done.
- If a distribution network feeds the property, its operator receives a copy inside 5 days.
- File the certificate with your property records. It's proof of compliance if you sell or renovate later.
The certificate attaches to a finished installation or alteration, not to every job. A repair or service call doesn't automatically end with one, and we'll tell you straight when your job needs the paperwork.
Plumbers, Gas Fitters and Their Licences
Only a licensed gasfitter can legally do gas work in Queensland. That's the whole of it: no licence, no gas job, whoever else the person claims to be. Ask to see the gas work licence up front, exactly as the Queensland Government advises.
The licence picture has a second layer for plumbing:
- Plumbing and drainage work needs one licence to do the work and a second, contractor licence to run it as a business; the QBCC grants both.
- A plumber who also carries a gas work licence can do both trades. Many do, and we're among them.
- The QBCC's online registers show whether a plumber is licensed and whether a Form 4 has been lodged for your property, handy to check once a notifiable job wraps up.
So when you ring us about a cooktop and a leaking tap in the same afternoon, the same visit covers both. One call, one quote, one licensed tradie.
The Gas Jobs We Take On
Each gas job has its own page, from a cooktop swap on a Bald Hills Road renovation to a bayonet point for a deck off Telegraph Road:

New cooktop, new line, fitted and commissioned to the maker's spec:
Gas Bayonet Installation
John Stewart Memorial Park runs an electric barbecue, but the gas BBQ on your own deck needs its own point:

What Decides the Price of Gas Work
Four things set the price of gas work: the job itself, access to the pipework, the count of gas points, and any supply check. A fixed quote locks the figure before any work starts, so there are no surprises on the day.
Each driver does its own work on the final number:
The job
a new line costs more than connecting an existing point.
Access
pipework under a floor or behind a wall takes longer to reach.
Gas points
each one adds pipe, joints and testing.
Supply check
before a new system or an extra appliance, the licence holder checks the supply has headroom for the added load. That covers how much LPG the cylinders hold and vaporise, the meter's capacity, and whether the pipe sizing is up to it.
We quote flat, we quote before we start, and the figure you sign is the figure you pay.

Gas Fitting Questions We Hear
Call (07) 3523 6417What does a gas fitter do at a home?
A gasfitter installs, repairs, services and tests gas systems, pipework and connections, then certifies a finished installation. Cooktops, heaters, bayonet points and the lines feeding them all sit in that scope.
Are plumbers and gas fitters the same thing?
No, the two trades sit under separate licences. Queensland lets only a licensed gasfitter do gas work, so ask which licence your tradie holds before anyone touches a gas line. Plenty of plumbers carry both, and we do.
Can a plumber legally fit gas appliances in Queensland?
Yes, if that plumber also holds a gas work licence. Gas work belongs to a licensed gasfitter alone, whatever else the person is qualified to do. Ask for the licence up front, before the job starts.
How do I check a gas fitter's licence in Bald Hills?
Ask to see it up front, before anyone starts on the job. The QBCC's online registers then show whether a plumber holds a current licence and whether a Form 4 has been lodged for your property.
How much does a gas fitter cost in Bald Hills?
The price follows the job itself, how easily we reach the pipes, the count of gas points, and any supply check. A fixed quote comes first, set before we begin, so you know the figure up front.
Should I call a gas fitter or the gas supplier for a leak?
Go outside and ring from there if you can smell gas. The supplier's emergency number sits on your gas bill. Once the supply is safe, a licensed gasfitter does the repair, and our gas leak repairs page has the detail.
