J&J is a Canberra plumbing and gas business. Real Canberra plumbers, not a national franchise call centre.
We hold an ACT licence (201782) and a NSW licence (347484C), so one team looks after gas work in Canberra and just over the border in Queanbeyan. We're members of Master Plumbers ACT and were Canberra Region Local Business Awards finalists in 2024 and 2025.
Our approach is simple. Do it once. Do it properly. We show up when we say we will, we respect your home and you know the cost before we start.
What does a gas fitter do?
A gas fitter installs, repairs, tests and certifies gas appliances and gas lines. In the ACT, gas work must be done by a licensed gasfitter. J&J Plumbing Services is licensed in the ACT (201782) and NSW (347484C), and you'll know the cost before we start.
Our gas fitting services
Gas appliance installation
Cooktops, ovens, heaters, gas fireplaces and outdoor connections. We install to the manufacturer's instructions and Australian standards, then pressure-test and certify the work where required. See our appliance installation page.
Gas hot water
We install and repair gas hot water systems, and we'll give you honest advice on gas, electric and heat pump options for your home. Read more about gas hot water systems in Canberra .
Gas leaks and repairs
We find the leak or fault, make it safe and explain what needs to happen next. More on gas leak repairs .
Gas safety checks and compliance certificates
A gas service or safety check looks at your appliances and connections and confirms they're working safely. When new gas work is finished, it's tested and a compliance certificate is lodged where one is required.
Appliance upgrades and replacements
When a gas appliance reaches the end of its life, we'll talk you through the options for your home and give you a clear price for the replacement.
Do you need a gas fitter or a plumber?
Gas work needs a licensed gasfitter, and not every plumber holds a gas licence. Water and drainage work needs a licensed plumber.
J&J is a licensed plumbing and gas business, so the same team can look after both. If you need a plumber, gas fitter or both for one job, such as a new gas hot water system and its water connections, one booking covers it. That's the benefit of a gas fitting plumber: one visit instead of two trades.
If you smell gas
A gas smell is worth acting on calmly. These steps keep everyone safe:
1. Open doors and windows for fresh air and leave the area.
2. Don't use matches, lighters or other flames.
3. Don't turn electrical switches on or off.
4. Turn off the gas at the meter if it's safe.
5. Report the leak to Evoenergy on 13 19 09.
6. Call 000 if anyone is in danger.
Once it's safe, a licensed gas fitter can find and fix the leak. Call us on 0482 426 979 or read more about gas leak repairs .

Gas fitting questions
Do I need a licensed gas fitter for gas work in Canberra?
Yes. In the ACT, gas work must be done by a licensed gasfitter under the Construction Occupations (Licensing) Act 2004. J&J holds ACT licence 201782 and NSW licence 347484C.
Will I get a compliance certificate?
Where the work requires one, yes. The gas fitter tests the appliance when the job is finished and lodges a compliance certificate with Access Canberra.
How much does gas fitting cost in Canberra?
It depends on the job, and you'll know the cost before we start. For typical prices, see our gas fitting cost guide.
How long does a gas job take?
A small repair or safety check is often done in one visit. A new install can take longer, depending on the appliance and your setup. We'll tell you what to expect when we give you the price.

A licensed gas fitter checks your gas appliances and connections, tests for leaks and confirms each appliance is working safely. If an appliance isn't safe to use, it's tagged and we explain why before any further work.
