Gas Fitting

The obvious sign is the smell, that rotten egg odour added to gas so leaks get noticed. Other signs are a hissing sound near appliances or the meter, gas bottles emptying faster than usual, brown patches in grass near a buried line, or pilot lights that keep going out.

If you suspect a leak: get everyone outside, do not switch anything electrical on or off, turn the gas off at the bottle or meter if safe, and call. Anthony pressure tests the system to confirm whether there is a leak, finds it, and repairs it to code with a compliance certificate for the work.

Yes. Cooktops, ovens, gas heaters, and gas hot water systems, for both natural gas and LPG. The job covers running or extending the gas line where needed, fitting the regulator, connecting and commissioning the appliance, and pressure testing the whole system.

Trusted brands are supplied through local outlets, or you can supply the appliance yourself and Anthony will fit it. Either way the connection is tested, compliant and certified, which matters for your insurance and is legally required for gas work in NSW.

Yes. Anthony is a licensed gas fitter as well as a plumber, covering both natural gas and LPG. That includes new appliance installations, cooktops, heaters and hot water, gas line runs, leak detection and repairs, pressure testing and compliance certificates.

Having one licence holder for both trades means jobs that involve water and gas, like a kitchen renovation or a hot water changeover, are done in one visit by one person instead of juggling two trades.

Yes. Emergency work is a core part of the business, and urgent jobs get priority across the Mid North Coast. Burst pipes, gas leaks, blocked sewers and failed hot water are the common ones.

When you call, describe what is happening and Anthony will tell you what to shut off straight away. Water off at the meter or gas off at the bottle can save you thousands in damage before he arrives. Being licensed for both plumbing and gas means one call covers either kind of emergency.

Yes. Anthony holds NSW contractor licence 283413C covering both plumbing and gas fitting, and carries full public liability insurance.

That combination matters. Plenty of handymen will quote on jobs that legally require a licensed plumber, and if something goes wrong the insurance consequences land on the homeowner. Every job Anthony Martin Plumbing does is compliant, insured and, where the work requires it, backed by a compliance certificate you keep for your records and your insurer.

Anthony Martin Plumbing is based in Lake Cathie and works across the whole Mid North Coast, including Bonny Hills, Laurieton, North Haven, Dunbogan, Camden Head, West Haven, Kendall, Kew and Lakewood, plus the southern side of Port Macquarie.

Being local matters for more than convenience. Response times are shorter, travel costs stay out of your bill, and Anthony knows the housing stock in the area, from older fibro cottages on galvanised pipe through to new builds in the estates. If you are just outside these areas, call anyway. If the job suits, Anthony will travel for it.
