Cooktop Connections
We disconnect the old unit, cap the line safely, run and test the new connection, and commission the cooktop, leaving you with documents that prove the installation is fully sound.

Gas Work Around Alderley
Gas work is licensed work in Queensland, full stop, and the gasfitting class on our licence covers everything from a single heater point through to a whole-of-house re-pipe. That licence is your protection as the person living with the result.
If you can smell gas right now, that is a different call: leave the property and read our gas leak emergency page from your phone outside.
Cottages, Warehouses and Fast Fit-Outs
Industry-era houses
This suburb grew up around a biscuit factory, a concrete pipe works and the Newmarket brickworks, and cottages from those years often had gas points added one at a time across the decades that followed.
Fast townhouse fit-outs
The station-side rows along Wakefield Street went in quickly, and gas cooktop connections there were sometimes done to a budget, which surfaces years later as a weeping joint behind a cabinet.
Mixed stock
At the last census, 57.3 per cent of the suburb's 2,696 dwellings were separate houses, so a gas call here can land on any era of pipe, fitting or appliance.
Gas Fitting Services
Alderley Plumber covers every side of gas work here, from one heater point to a complete new line, with the compliance paperwork issued as each job is completed.
Heater Bayonet Points
Wall furnaces and space heaters get fresh bayonet points fitted where the line allows, so a portable heater moves between rooms without a plumber returning each winter.
Gas Pipe Repairs
Leaking joints, corroded copper and damaged lines get traced, repaired or re-run, then pressure tested, because any line that has been disturbed needs proving before it goes back into service.
Appliance Changeovers
Old heaters, cooktops and ovens come off the line and new ones go on, with the regulator and connection checked and adjusted so the appliance burns cleanly from day one.
New Gas Lines
Extensions for barbecues, heaters and kitchen renovations are sized, run and tested, whether the line crosses under a timber Queenslander or feeds a cooktop in a station-side townhouse.
Compliance Certificates
Every gas job finishes with the documentation Queensland requires, issued for the work performed, so you hold written proof the installation meets the standard whenever it is needed.

Common Gas Problems
These are the calls that bring us out for gas work most often, and each one has a cause worth finding properly.
Yellow Flame Cooktops
A lazy yellow flame instead of crisp blue means the burner or the supply is running rich, and a licensed check sorts the cause before it becomes a hazard.
Hissing Behind a Wall
A faint hiss near a pipe run usually points to a weeping joint, and we isolate, test and repair the line so the wall can be closed up with confidence.
Pilot That Won't Hold
A pilot that lights but keeps dropping out often traces to a worn thermocouple or an injector clogged with dust, and both are usually straightforward fixes carried out under our licence.
Old Bayonet Points
Bayonet fittings from decades back can seize, weep or fail the test, and swapping them for sound modern points keeps a winter heater safe to reconnect every single year.
Why Proper Gas Work Matters
Gas is the one trade where the stakes justify the paperwork: every connection we make gets tested, and every job closes with the certificate that says a licensed gas fitter signed it off.
Safety you can prove
A gas job done off the books has no certificate behind it, and that matters when you sell, renovate or make an insurance claim. Our paperwork travels with the house.
The right fix, not the fast one
A cooktop that burns yellow has a reason, and capping a symptom leaves the cause in the wall. We test the run, find the reason and fix it.
Appliances that last
A correctly commissioned heater or oven runs cleaner and longer than one bolted on in a hurry, which is the difference between gas fitting and gas attaching.

Gas Fitting Questions From Alderley
Call (07) 3067 4274Does a new gas cooktop in Alderley need a compliance certificate?
Yes, Queensland requires compliance documentation for gas appliance installations, and we lodge it once the work is finished so your records show a licensed gas fitter did the job.
Who pays for gas pipe repairs at my Alderley property?
You do, because the line from the meter or cylinder into the house is the owner's side, and we quote that repair in writing before anyone picks up a tool.
Do older timber cottages in Alderley need extra gas checks?
They can, because outlets fitted piecemeal over the decades tend to hide joins inside wall cavities, so we pressure test the whole run, not just the fitting you rang about.
Can you convert an electric kitchen to gas cooking in Alderley?
Yes, we size and run a fresh line from the meter, test it end to end and certify it, and your existing electric circuit stays available for anything you want to keep.
Does Urban Utilities look after gas pipes in Alderley?
No, Urban Utilities manages the water mains and public sewer, while the gas line past your meter belongs to you, and our work on it sits under QBCC No: 15024607.
