Protecting Your Home and Insurance

Many homeowners don't realise that DIY or uncertified gas work can void their home insurance.

Protecting Your Home and Insurance In New Zealand
Any gas work beyond swapping a 9kg bottle requires a Gas Safety Certificate (GSC) or a Certificate of Compliance (CoC). This isn't just a piece of paper—it is your legal proof that the work meets NZS 5601 standards.

  • Insurance Validity: Most NZ insurers will reject claims for fire or gas damage if the work wasn't signed off by a licensed practitioner.

  • Property Sales: When you sell your home, a clear gas history is essential for a smooth building inspection.

  • Total Safety: Our certified gasfitters test every joint and connection with specialised equipment before we sign off on your safety.

What our customers say

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a certificate for gas work?

Yes. For most gasfitting work in New Zealand, a Gas Safety Certificate (GSC) or Certificate of Compliance (CoC) is legally required. This proves the work is safe and meets all NZ standards.

What should I do if I smell gas?

Turn off the gas supply at the meter or bottle immediately, open windows for ventilation, and avoid using any electrical switches or naked flames. Call us on 04 390 0135 for an urgent repair.

Can I install my own gas appliances?

No. In New Zealand, it is illegal and dangerous to perform your own gasfitting. All work must be carried out by a licensed gasfitter to ensure safety and maintain your home insurance.
