Safe, Reliable Gas Repairs in Strathfield—When It Matters Most

When it comes to gas, there’s no room for uncertainty. A strange smell near your kitchen, a gas appliance that won’t ignite, or a pilot light that keeps going out can all be signs of a deeper issue—and one that needs to be handled by a licensed professional. That’s where Stay Connected Plumbingcomes in. We offer fast, safety-first gas repairs in Strathfield, backed by years of hands-on experience and full compliance with NSW regulations.

Whether you’ve got a suspected gas leak, a faulty hot water system, or a gas cooktop that’s underperforming, we’re nearby and ready to help. Our local team responds quickly, diagnoses the issue thoroughly, and carries out repairs to the highest standard—so you can get back to comfort and safety without delay.

Why Gas Repairs Should Never Be Delayed

Unlike a leaking tap or a blocked drain, gas faults can pose serious health and safety risks. Gas is highly flammable, and when it leaks or fails to burn properly, it can create hazardous conditions including:

• Fire or explosion risk
  
  
• Carbon monoxide build-up
  
  
• Nausea, headaches, or dizziness from gas exposure
  
  
• Appliance inefficiency and increased bills
  
  

Even small issues—like a burner not lighting evenly or a faint sulphuric smell near an appliance—can be warning signs of something more serious. That’s why it’s important to take gas-related concerns seriously and call in a professional as soon as possible.

At Stay Connected Plumbing, we’re fully licensed gas fitters, not just general plumbers. That means we have the training, tools, and certifications to detect leaks, test pressure, and carry out safe, compliant gas repairs—ensuring your system is functioning properly and your property is safe.

Common Gas Issues We Repair in Strathfield

Gas-related issues can range from minor inconveniences to serious safety concerns—and our team at Stay Connected Plumbinghas seen and fixed them all. We’re regularly called out to residential homes, apartment complexes, and commercial premises across Strathfield to diagnose and resolve a wide variety of gas faults. No matter the size or complexity of the job, we treat every callout with the same level of urgency, precision, and care.

One of the most frequent reasons we’re contacted is the presence of a persistent gas smell, either inside the home or near outdoor gas meters and fittings. Often described as a sulphur or “rotten egg” odour, this smell is a strong indication of a leak. In these cases, we act fast to locate the source using advanced leak detection tools and isolate the supply to prevent further risk.

We also frequently address issues with pilot lights that won’t stay lit, particularly in older hot water systems or gas heaters. This can be caused by a faulty thermocouple, blocked burner, or interrupted gas flow. In these cases, we carry out careful testing to pinpoint the fault and restore safe, steady operation.

Another common concern is appliances that fail to ignite or heat unevenly—from cooktops and ovens to outdoor BBQs and gas heaters. Low flames, uneven heat distribution, or complete failure to start often point to a problem with the appliance connection, internal regulator, or a gas flow issue. Our team is trained to assess and repair both domestic and commercial gas appliances with minimal disruption.

Low gas pressureis another issue we see in Strathfield, especially in properties with outdated pipework or multiple appliances drawing from a single supply. This often presents as weak flames on cooktops or a slow-heating water system. After conducting pressure tests, we’ll identify whether the issue lies with a faulty regulator, partial obstruction in the line, or insufficient system capacity—and provide tailored solutions.

Hot water problems can also be gas-related. If your gas hot water system isn’t heating properly, it may be due to ignition failure, gas flow restrictions, or a malfunctioning control valve. We’ll determine whether your system can be repaired with a new component or whether a full service—or system upgrade—is needed.

Sometimes, signs of a gas leak are more audible than visible. Hissing soundsnear pipe joints, regulators, or appliances often indicate a slow leak under pressure. If left unresolved, these leaks can worsen over time. Our team will pinpoint the location, isolate the issue, and repair or replace the affected section to restore safety and performance.

We’re also regularly called to replace old, corroded gas lines, especially in older homes or buildings that have undergone extensions or renovations. Gas pipes, like any other infrastructure, wear down with time and exposure. If your gas system hasn’t been inspected in years, or if you’ve noticed signs of degradation, we’ll perform a full assessment and re-pipe the system using modern, compliant materials.

Lastly, we frequently service faulty gas bayonet fittings—commonly used for connecting portable gas heaters or outdoor BBQs. Loose, leaking, or improperly installed bayonets are not only frustrating but dangerous. We ensure these fittings are correctly secured, pressure tested, and operating to full safety standards.

In every scenario, we begin by listening to your concerns and conducting a comprehensive inspectionof your gas system. We explain our findings clearly and offer honest advice—whether it’s a targeted repairto get things running again or a broader upgradeto improve efficiency, safety, and compliance.

With gas, there’s no room for shortcuts—and that’s why Strathfield locals trust us to get the job done properly.

What to Do If You Smell Gas

If you notice a strong gas smell inside your home or business, your first priority is safety. Here’s what to do while waiting for a professional:

1. Turn off the gas supply at the meter, if it’s safe to do so.
   
   
2. Open windows and doorsto ventilate the area.
   
   
3. Avoid using electrical switches, appliances, or open flames.
   
   
4. Evacuate the premisesif the smell is strong or you feel unwell.
