Right now
A gas smell is an act-now call
If you can smell gas, the safest steps come before the phone: leave the property and call from outside, do not flick switches or light flames, and ring (02) 9072 0592 once everyone is clear.
Ageing gas fittings in the period cottages
The older housing stock is where most of the leak calls begin.
Decades of joints

What a gas leak callout covers
Making a suspected leak safe is a set sequence of isolate, locate, prove and repair, carried out only by a licensed gas plumber, so here is what happens once we reach your door:
Isolate the supply
Arriving to a reported smell, your plumber first shuts the gas off at the meter to stop any more escaping, then ventilates the affected rooms so the space is safe to work in before a single fitting is opened.
Pressure test the line
Because a nose finds a leak but never its source, we put the isolated line under a pressure test that shows precisely where gas is escaping, which turns guesswork into a marked spot and a defined, contained repair.
Repair the fault
Once the failing joint, valve or length of line is pinpointed, your plumber replaces or reseals it to standard, then retests the whole run under pressure to confirm the leak is genuinely gone rather than merely quieter.
Relight and check
After the line holds pressure, we relight the cooktop, heater or gas hot water system, check each appliance burns cleanly and safely, and hand you the compliance paperwork the work generates.
Gas around the older kitchens and heaters
Beyond the fittings themselves, how a home uses gas shapes where leaks turn up around the suburb.
Cooktops and bayonets
Heaters left dormant
Festive cooking peaks
Warning signs worth acting on
A rotten-egg smell
The odour added to natural gas smells like rotten eggs or sulphur, and catching it near a cooktop, heater or meter is the clearest sign a fitting is leaking and needs a licensed check without delay.
A hissing fitting
A faint hiss at a connection, a bayonet or the meter itself points to gas escaping under pressure, so leaving the appliance off and calling a licensed plumber is far wiser than trying to nip up the joint yourself.
A pilot that won't hold
A pilot light that keeps dropping out on a heater or hot water unit can signal a supply fault or a failing valve, and it is worth a proper look before the appliance is leaned on through winter.
Why a gas leak cannot wait
A gas leak carries risks that a dripping tap never will, which is exactly why it sits at the top of the emergency list:
A safety risk builds unseen
A licence is not optional
Peace of mind is quick to reach
How it works
How the callout runs, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0592 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Make safe and repair
Working from the isolated meter, your plumber seals or renews the failed fitting, proves the whole run tight under a fresh pressure test, and only relights each appliance once it holds safely end to end.
- 04
Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Hurstville
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Hurstville works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
With gas, the licence behind the work and the test that proves it safe are the whole point.
Where we work
Gas plumbing across the wider area
A suspected leak brings a licensed gas plumber out to Penshurst, Mortdale, Allawah, Kogarah and Beverly Hills just as readily as within the centre, testing the line the same careful way in a cottage kitchen or a unit heater.

Good questions, straight answers
Gas safety questions Hurstville locals ask
I can smell gas indoors right now, what should I do first?
Leave the property and call from outside, do not flick switches or light flames, open a door on your way past if you safely can, and keep everyone well clear until we arrive.
Where does the gas actually leak in an older home here?
In the period cottages the weak point is usually an ageing joint, a cooktop bayonet or a heater connection that has worked loose over years of heating and cooling.
How do you find and confirm a leak once you arrive?
Our gas-licensed plumber shuts the supply at the meter first, then runs a pressure test to prove exactly where the line is losing gas before opening a wall or a fitting.
Is a faint gas smell really worth an after-hours callout?
Yes, a small leak can build unseen in a closed cottage or a kitchen, so a licensed plumber checking it tonight is always the safer call than waiting until morning.
Can you work on the gas that feeds my hot water and cooktop?
Yes, we test and repair the lines and fittings that feed cooktops, wall heaters and a gas hot water unit, then relight and confirm every appliance runs cleanly before we leave.
What does making a gas leak safe end up costing?
The call out is $0 and the price is set in writing before we lift a tool, with nothing added for the late hour, so the time you ring never changes what you finally pay.
