Gasfitting Services in Kohimarama

Kohimarama has character 1930s-60s homes in a coastal setting, many using gas for hot water and cooking. Whether you're on Tamaki Drive, along Kohimarama Road, or near Kohimarama Beach — if it involves gas, we handle it.

Many Kohimarama homes have gas for hot water, cooking, and gas fires — popular in the character villas and bungalows along the coast. We do the full job: disconnect the old unit, install the new one, run any new gas pipe, and issue the gas safety certificate.

By law, only a certified gas fitter can work on gas. We're both a registered plumber AND certified gas fitter — so we handle the water and the gas in one visit. Every gas job we do comes with the correct gas safety certificate — either a GSC or COC.

When You Need a Gas Fitter

Smell of gas — that rotten egg smell means a gas leak. Get outside and call immediately.

Yellow or orange flame — gas burners should burn blue. Yellow means incomplete combustion.

Hissing near gas pipes — could be a leak at a joint or connection. Don't ignore it.

Gas hot water not working — pilot light out, ignition failure, or gas supply issue.

Black soot on appliances — sign of poor combustion, needs servicing urgently.

No gas safety cert — if your gas appliance was installed without certification, it needs inspecting.
