Revolution Plumbing is a licensed gas fitter serving Canberra and the ACT. We install, service, and repair all gas appliances, detect and fix gas leaks, and issue compliance certificates for residential and commercial properties.
Our Gas Fitting Services
All gas work in the ACT must be completed by a licensed gas fitter. We hold licence #2022722 and are members of Master Plumbers ACT.
Gas Appliance Installation
We install all types of gas appliances including cooktops, ovens, hot water systems, gas heaters, fireplaces, and BBQs. Every installation includes a compliance certificate and is completed to Australian Standard AS/NZS 5601. We work with all major brands and can advise on the best appliance for your needs and budget.
Gas Leak Detection and Repair
If you smell gas or suspect a leak, call us immediately. We use electronic gas detection equipment to locate leaks in pipework, connections, and appliances. Gas leaks are dangerous and must be repaired by a licensed professional. We provide emergency gas leak response 24 hours a day.
Gas Line Installation
We install new gas lines for renovations, extensions, and new builds. Whether you are adding a gas cooktop to your kitchen, running gas to an outdoor entertaining area, or plumbing a full home from scratch, we design and install gas pipework to code with full certification.
Compliance Certificates
Every gas installation, modification, or disconnection in the ACT requires a gas compliance certificate. This confirms the work meets Australian standards and is safe. We issue compliance certificates for all gas work we complete, and can also inspect and certify existing installations for property sales or rental compliance.

1. Call or Request a Quote
Tell us what you need. Whether it is a new appliance install, a gas smell you want checked, or a compliance certificate for a property sale. We will ask the right questions to understand the scope and give you an idea of cost before we visit.
2. On-Site Assessment
We inspect the existing gas infrastructure, check pipework capacity, and assess what is needed. For leak detection, we use electronic equipment to pinpoint the source. You get an upfront written quote before any work begins.

We complete the work to Australian standards, pressure test all connections, and issue compliance certificates. Every job is cleaned up before we leave, and all workmanship is guaranteed.
Gas Fitting for Canberra Homes
Canberra's cold winters mean gas is a critical part of most households. From ducted gas heating systems that keep families warm through sub-zero nights, to gas hot water systems that provide reliable hot water year-round, properly installed and maintained gas infrastructure is essential.
Many homes across Belconnen, Woden, and Tuggeranong were built in the 1970s and 80s with gas systems that are now 40 to 50 years old. Ageing pipework, outdated appliances, and connections that no longer meet current standards can create safety risks. Regular servicing and inspection by a licensed gas fitter protects your family and ensures your systems run efficiently.
We also work on newer properties across Gungahlin and Molonglo Valley, where gas is being installed alongside modern energy-efficient appliances. Whether your home is old or new, we have the experience to handle any gas fitting job in Canberra.
Gas Fitting FAQs
Do I need a licensed gas fitter?
Yes. In the ACT, all gas work must be carried out by a licensed gas fitter. This includes installing, repairing, or disconnecting any gas appliance or gas line. It is illegal and extremely dangerous to attempt gas work yourself or to hire someone who is not licensed. Revolution Plumbing holds ACT plumbing and gas fitting licence #2022722 and is a member of Master Plumbers ACT.
What is a gas compliance certificate?
A gas compliance certificate is a legal document that confirms gas appliances and pipework have been installed or serviced to Australian Standard AS/NZS 5601. It is required after any new gas installation, modification, or disconnection in the ACT. The certificate is lodged with Access Canberra and serves as proof that the work is safe and compliant. We issue compliance certificates for all gas work we complete.
How do I know if I have a gas leak?
Common signs of a gas leak include:
- A smell of rotten eggs or sulfur near gas appliances or pipework
- A hissing or whistling sound near gas lines or connections
- Dead or discoloured vegetation near underground gas lines
- A gas bill that is higher than normal without explanation
- Pilot lights that keep going out
If you suspect a gas leak, leave the property immediately, do not use electrical switches or open flames, and call us on 0468 014 195.
How much does gas fitting cost in Canberra?
Gas fitting costs depend on the scope of the job. A simple gas appliance connection typically starts from a few hundred dollars. Running a new gas line, installing multiple appliances, or completing gas work as part of a renovation will cost more depending on complexity and materials. We always provide an upfront written quote before starting work, so you know exactly what to expect with no surprises.
