Gas connections, pipework, leak detection and compliance checks done safely by a fully licensed gas fitter. Based in Kwinana, covering Perth's southern suburbs. Licence GF015145.
Servicing Perth's southern suburbs
Safe, compliant gas fitting from a licensed local
Gas fitting is one of the few trades where cutting corners has genuinely serious consequences. Every gas job we do is carried out under Licence GF015145, fully insured, and finished to Australian Standards.
Frecks Plumbing & Gas is a local business based in Kwinana, covering Perth's southern suburbs. Both licences are held in-house, so plumbing and gas can be handled in the one visit without bringing in a second tradie.
Whether you need a cooktop connected, a new bayonet point installed or a gas leak tracked down and fixed, you get one local, licensed contractor who knows the job inside out.
What we do
- Gas connections to existing and new supply lines
- Meter and regulator work (natural gas and LPG)
- Gas pipework runs through new and existing homes
- Cooktop, oven and gas heater connections
- Gas bayonet points installed and relocated
- Gas leak detection, isolation and repair
Signs you need a gas fitter
- A smell of rotten eggs or sulphur near an appliance or fitting
- A hissing or whistling sound from a gas pipe, valve or connection
- A yellow or orange burner flame instead of a clean blue one
- A pilot light that won't stay lit or keeps going out
- Soot or black marks around a burner or appliance
- A gas bill noticeably higher than usual with no change in usage
How we handle your gas fitting job in Perth
Give us a call
Describe what you need, a new connection, a leak concern or an appliance installation. We talk through the job with you and give you a clear idea of what is involved before anything is booked.
We assess the job
We check the existing gas supply, pressure and pipework layout before quoting, so the price you get covers the actual job rather than a vague ballpark.
We carry out the work safely
All gas work is done under Licence GF015145 and to Australian Standards. Connections are pressure-tested before any appliance is commissioned or any gas is turned on.
Certificate of compliance issued
When required, we issue a compliance certificate for the work so you have documented evidence the gas installation is safe and legal.
What Perth homeowners should know about gas fitting
Only a licensed gas fitter can do gas work legally
In Western Australia, any work on a gas installation must be carried out by a licensed gas fitter. Unlicensed gas work can void your home insurance and is illegal regardless of how minor the job looks.
Carbon monoxide is the hidden risk of DIY gas work
A poorly fitted connection or a misaligned burner can produce carbon monoxide, which has no smell and no colour. It is the reason gas work carries a mandatory licence requirement.
Common gas jobs around the home
Cooktop and oven connections, gas bayonet points, LPG and natural gas pipework, gas hot water system connections and outdoor barbecue points are the jobs we handle most often.
Certificates of compliance explained
A certificate of compliance is the documented record that a licensed gas fitter carried out the work and it meets Australian Standards. Some councils and insurers require it, and it is worth keeping for future buyers.
What to do if you smell gas
Turn the gas off at the meter, open windows and leave the building. Do not use switches or appliances. Once you are clear, call a licensed gas fitter to locate and repair the fault before restoring supply.
LPG and natural gas are not the same job
LPG runs at a different pressure to natural gas and requires different regulators, fittings and appliance settings. A licensed gas fitter and plumber covers both, so you get the right setup first time.
A gas fitter who is also your plumber
Most gas jobs overlap with plumbing. A new gas hot water system needs both a gas connection and water pipework. A kitchen renovation needs the cooktop connected and possibly the sink relocated at the same time.
We hold both a plumbing licence (PL9232) and a gas licence (GF015145), so one call covers the whole job. You do not need to coordinate two separate tradies or pay two call-out fees.
Gas leak detection is part of the service too. If you suspect a leak or your bills have spiked without reason, we test the system, locate the fault and repair it properly rather than just turning the gas back on and hoping.
- Licensed for both gas (GF015145) and plumbing (PL9232)
- Gas leak detection and repair, not just isolation
- Compliance certificates issued where required
- Natural gas and LPG covered
