Gas Fitting in Kuraby

We do not do any of it unlicensed and neither should anyone else.

Kuraby is a Brisbane City Council suburb, postcode 4112.
Kuraby sits about 6.9 km north of our Marsden base, so we are rarely far away when the call comes in.

What we find in Kuraby

Most of our gas work in this sort of housing is appliance connections and leak testing.

Kuraby in detail

Spring Creek shapes the local drainage. Low-lying blocks near it see surcharge first when the rain is heavy enough.

Getting access in Kuraby

On Kuraby's larger blocks we can usually get the van close. What slows a job here is the length of pipe between the house and the main, not getting through the gate.

Getting to Kuraby

Our Kuraby runs also take in Eight Mile Plains, Underwood, Woodridge and Karawatha.

Before you call us

If you are not at the property, tell us who is and how we reach them. We would rather sort that out on the phone than at the kerb. Tell us plainly what is happening and whether anyone is at risk. We would rather hear that it sounds worse than it is than have you play it down and us arrive under-equipped.

What happens when we arrive

The first job on arrival is stopping the loss - water off, gas isolated, power killed if it needs to be. Only once the situation is stable do we diagnose, and only once we have diagnosed do we quote. You agree the number before any repair starts.

After the job

When the work is finished you get told what we found, what we did and whether anything else is worth watching. If there is nothing, we say so - we would rather be the ones who told you the system was fine than the ones who found work that was not there.

How we quote

We quote before we start, in Kuraby as everywhere. You hear the number, you agree to it, and that is the number on the invoice. If we find something unexpected, we stop and tell you before continuing.

What affects the price

A call-out that finds nothing wrong still costs something, and we tell you what before we come. Nobody should be surprised by that. Gas work ends with a compliance certificate, and that is part of the job rather than an add-on. Work you cannot see needs documentation you can.

How we do it

We test the full installation rather than just the new section, because a leak elsewhere is still your leak.

Preventive work in Kuraby

Because Spring Creek carries the local stormwater, keeping pits and downpipes clear in Kuraby is worth doing before the wet rather than during it.

Approvals and compliance

Approvals for Kuraby go to Brisbane City Council. We submit them so the job is compliant on paper as well as in the ground.

Kuraby sits in the Runcorn ward, which is who you would be dealing with for anything involving council infrastructure in the street.

Frequently asked questions

Some appliances have a conversion kit from the manufacturer, others do not. We check the model before quoting rather than after.

The smell is the main sign, along with a hissing near a fitting, or a gas bill that has climbed without a change in use. Treat any of them seriously.

Yes. The fittings and the pressures differ and they are not interchangeable, which is exactly why it is licensed work.

A yellow or orange flame usually means incomplete combustion, which can produce carbon monoxide. It needs checking rather than monitoring.

Usually. We clear and camera first, and excavation only happens when the pipe itself has failed. You see the footage before we recommend anything.

We quote the job before we start, so the price you agree to is the price on the invoice. Ask on the phone and we will tell you what the attendance costs before we leave the depot.

We quote before work begins and we do not revise it mid-job without talking to you first. If we find something unexpected, you decide what happens next.
