Gas leaks can lead to serious health risks such as dizziness, severe headaches, nausea and in worst-case scenarios, carbon monoxide poisoning. Investing in regular gas leak detection services, our team can identify any possible issues with your gas appliances and lines early and avoid expensive repairs later down the track.
Prevents Property Damage

What To Do If You Suspect A Gas Leak?
Knowing what to do in the event of a gas leak is a critical step in helping prevent property damage and save lives.
Evacuate Your Home or Business: When you smell that telltale rotten egg smell of natural gas, immediately evacuate everyone (including pets) from the premises. Regroup outside - somewhere a good distance away. By exiting the building immediately, you limit harmful exposure to gas, minimising the risk of serious health problems like carbon monoxide poisoning.
Do NOT Use Electronics or Ignite Flames: Under no circumstances should you use light switches, mobile phones or any electrical appliances in the event of a gas leak.
Leave the Doors and Windows Open:
