Cooker Connections
New freestanding and built-in cookers are connected to the existing line, pressure-tested, and every burner is lit and checked for a clean blue flame before we hand your kitchen back.
Grange Plumber covers cookers, heaters, bayonet points, line repairs and new appliance connections under QBCC No: 15024607, with a fixed quote before work starts and card or EFTPOS payment on site. If you can smell gas, leave the property first and read our gas leak emergency page from outside.
If we're late, $100 comes off your bill

The full picture. Back on the Grange home page you will find the whole range: emergency plumbing, general plumbing, drainage and hot water. This page stays on gas.

From a new bayonet for a heater to a full line for a kitchen renovation, our plumbers run, extend and repair gas through interwar family homes every week of the year.

A large share of the housing here is protected by Council's traditional building character overlay, which keeps original walls and linings in place, so a gas line often has to be planned around surfaces that cannot be opened casually.
Houses from the estate that opened here in 1903, once the tram reached Days Road in 1928, are big on gas cooking and heating, which keeps our fitters busy with connections and swaps.
Around the Grange Post Office end of Thomas Street, the neighbourhood strip and the houses behind it give us a steady little run of appliance connections and line checks.
Gas work falls into a few clear jobs, and these are the ones we are called out for most often, from the Days Road shops to the top of the ridge:

New freestanding and built-in cookers are connected to the existing line, pressure-tested, and every burner is lit and checked for a clean blue flame before we hand your kitchen back.

Bayonet points and fixed heater lines are run to lounges and bedrooms, sized to the appliance, and tested so the heater sits safely where you actually want it.

Failing joints, perished hoses and corroded sections are traced along the line, replaced with compliant fittings, and the whole run is pressure-tested before gas is safely restored to the house.

Old heaters and cookers are disconnected, capped off, removed and replaced with new, and the new unit is commissioned, adjusted and tested so it burns cleanly from its first use.

BBQ points, patio heaters and outdoor kitchen lines are run with weather-rated fittings, tested at full flow, and left ready for the first weekend you want to use them.

Existing installations are inspected, leak-tested and brought safely back into line, which matters most in older houses where a previous owner may have done their own unrecorded work decades ago.
$0 call-out fees, available 24/7, and same-day where we can.

A faint whiff at the stovetop usually traces to a perished hose or a loose fitting behind the appliance, and either one is a quick, contained repair once the source is found.
A heater cutting out mid-burn often has a faulty connection or a line restriction somewhere upstream, and testing from the appliance back finds the cause without any guesswork at all.
Burners burning yellow instead of blue are usually running on a restricted or wrongly sized line, and correcting the supply makes the appliance safe and efficient again.
Perished or kinked hoses behind older cookers and heaters fail quietly over many years, and swapping them out on a routine visit costs far less than the mess that follows.

Gas is the one trade where a careless job can genuinely hurt people, so here is why licensed, properly tested work matters so much in a suburb of old family houses:
Every connection, repair and cap-off we do is carried out under QBCC No: 15024607, covering plumbing and drainage and gasfitting, so the paperwork always matches the job.
In a suburb full of weatherboard and brick homes from the interwar decades, a line that past owners extended and re-extended deserves a full pressure test, not a quick sniff and a shrug.
A kitchen reno that opens a protected wall regularly uncovers a gas run nobody knew was there, and having a licensed fitter on the spot means it gets capped, rerouted or certified properly.

Ring (07) 3524 7117 and tell us what's happening in Grange. A few quick questions up front means the right parts come on the first visit.

You get flat-rate pricing with no hidden fees before any work starts. Approve it and we get going.

We isolate the section, pressure-test the existing line, carry out the repair or new run in compliant fittings, then test everything again and light each connected appliance in the house.

Pay by card or EFTPOS on site when the job's done, or ask us about Fix now, pay later.

Whatever the appliance, your job runs through those same four steps, from the first call to the last flame check.
There are no call-out fees for Grange jobs, and no added charge for nights, weekends or public holidays.

Every repair sits under our Fix-It-or-It's-Free guarantee (T&Cs apply). If we're late, $100 comes off your bill.
Each job is done by a licensed plumber under QBCC No: 15024607, and a lifetime labour warranty covers the labour.
Licensed and insured, locally owned and operated, with flat-rate pricing.
Our gas fitters also work the neighbouring suburbs every week, from Stafford and Gordon Park through Lutwyche, Windsor and Wilston, so a job just over a boundary line is still on the regular run. Each of those neighbours has its own page: Stafford, Gordon Park, Lutwyche, Windsor and Wilston.
They can, because interwar homes often carry gas runs inside walls that were never designed for them, and old threaded joints are usually where a smell first appears.
Yes, because Council's character overlay protects original wall linings in these kitchens, so we plan the pipe route to work around walls that need to stay intact rather than opening them up.
No, because the public water and sewer network sits with Urban Utilities, and maintaining and keeping compliant each gas line and fitting past the meter is the owner's job.
The run length, the wall linings we work around and the appliance type drive the quote, and the full figure is in front of you before anyone picks up a tool.
It usually can, because a fresh line is run to the new position, pressure-tested end to end, and the old section is capped off so nothing downstream stays live in the house.
Call (07) 3524 7117, tell us the appliance and the address, and we lock in a time that suits, with same-day where we can and a fixed quote before any work starts.
