When a Gas Smell Means Right Now
A smell of gas inside is not a booking to make for tomorrow. Get everyone out of the house, leave light switches, the doorbell and appliances untouched, and phone the gas network's emergency line from the footpath. Once their crew has made the supply safe, the leak on the house side can be found and repaired, and the steps for that are set out on the gas leak page.

What Shapes the Price of Gas Work?
We provide up-front, honest quotes that will always match the final price, should you decide to go ahead.
- What is being connected A single heater point is a smaller job than an oven and cooktop on a new run.
- The test result Pipe that fails adds a renewal to the day, shown as its own item.
- Where the pipe runs Wall cavities and low subfloors in the old cottages are slower to work in than open framing.
- Moving or extending a line Shifting a cooktop to the other side of a kitchen, or running gas out to a deck, means new pipe measured and priced by the metre of run.
What Customers Say
We had an urgent gas problem that required immediate attention at our home…on a Friday afternoon. … Identified the issue, fixed and tested
Where a Gas Job Isn't Ours
Not the right call: the gas meter, and everything between it and the street main, is the network's responsibility, and a gas appliance with a failed electronic control board may need the manufacturer's service agent.
Gas Questions From Islington Homes
Do you renew old steel gas pipe in Islington cottages?
Yes. When a section fails its pressure test, it is cut out and replaced with modern pipe, then tested again before any appliance is reconnected. That pipe work appears as a separate line in the quote.
Can a gas cooktop go into a pre-1940 cottage?
Yes, once the line feeding it holds pressure. Some cottages still carry their original steel runs, so the test comes first and a failed section is renewed before the cooktop is connected.
Do you handle gas work in Islington rentals?
Yes. Landlords and agents book gas appliance swaps and leak repairs the same way as owners, and the tenant is messaged before the visit. The old pipe in a rental gets the same pressure test before anything new is connected.
Can old bayonet points be removed?
Yes. Redundant bayonet fittings from earlier gas heaters can be capped off properly, or renewed if you want to connect a modern heater there.
