How we can help

Plumbing Bros provides gas appliance installation, gas hot water work, leak investigation, pipework repairs, maintenance and gas certification across Wellington City, Porirua, Lower Hutt, Upper Hutt and the Kāpiti Coast.
Our qualified gasfitters work with homeowners, landlords, property managers, builders and commercial clients. We assess the existing gas system, explain the work required and complete the agreed work with safety and long-term reliability in mind.
Our gasfitting services
Plumbing Bros provides gas appliance installations, natural gas and LPG appliance servicing, gas hot water work, leak investigation, pipework repairs and alterations, gas maintenance and certification for completed work.
Gas appliance installation and servicing
Correct installation is essential when connecting a gas hob, cooker, heater, barbecue or another gas appliance. The appliance must be suitable for the property’s gas supply, intended location and existing pipework.
Plumbing Bros can inspect the proposed installation, complete the necessary gas connections and test the finished work. The team also services suitable natural gas and LPG appliances to help identify faults and maintain safe operation.
If you are purchasing your own appliance, speak to Plumbing Bros before ordering it. This allows the team to check its gas type, installation requirements and compatibility with the existing system.
Gas hot water systems
Plumbing Bros provides repairs, maintenance and upgrades for gas hot water systems. If your system is delivering inconsistent temperatures, making unusual noises, frequently shutting down or no longer meeting the property’s needs, the team can investigate the problem and recommend an appropriate next step.
Depending on the condition of the system, the solution may involve servicing, repairing associated gas or water connections, replacing ageing components or upgrading the existing hot water setup.
Gas leak detection and pipework repairs
A suspected gas leak should always be treated seriously and assessed by a qualified gasfitter. Plumbing Bros can investigate suspected leaks, test the gas system and complete suitable repairs to affected appliances, connections or pipework.
Gas pipework may also require attention when it is ageing, damaged, poorly positioned or no longer suitable for a renovation or appliance upgrade. The team can install new pipework, alter existing gas lines and replace old or suspect sections where required.
Gasfitting for renovations and new builds
Gas appliances and pipework should be considered early when planning a renovation or new home. Appliance positions, ventilation requirements, access and the proposed gas supply can all affect the installation.
Plumbing Bros works alongside homeowners, builders and relevant trades to plan and complete gasfitting for renovations and new builds. Early involvement allows practical requirements to be identified before appliances are purchased or construction reaches its final stages.
Commercial gas maintenance
Plumbing Bros provides gas maintenance and repairs for businesses and commercial properties across the wider Wellington region.
The team understands that commercial work needs to be completed safely, efficiently and with clear communication. As a Site Safe New Zealand member, Plumbing Bros maintains a strong focus on safe working practices across commercial properties and active sites.
