Right now
Everyone out, then the phone
Get the whole household outside first. Only once you're standing well clear of the house should you ring (02) 9072 0511, describe what you're smelling, and let a licensed plumber take it from there.
An outdoor fitting that's easy to forget about
Plenty of the older cottages near Bakers Road and Walker Place still run an outdoor gas point installed for a barbecue or hot plate, wired into the original supply from decades ago
Salt carried off the water works into that kind of fitting slowly and without any obvious sign
How it works
What actually happens once a gasfitter's on site
- 01
Confirm the household is genuinely clear
Nobody goes back inside to check anything until that's settled, whatever the reason.
- 02
Locate the source properly
Detection equipment traces the fitting and every joint along it rather than relying on where the smell seems strongest.
- 03
Make it safe immediately
Once the fault's confirmed, the leak gets isolated on the spot so the property is no longer a risk.
- 04
Repair and document it
The actual fix follows at the fixed price already agreed, and you're left with a plain written note of what was wrong.
Reaching a leak on the other side of the water
A genuine leak on Scotland Island or along the western foreshore doesn't get put behind a queue of mainland jobs
How a job gets staged changes depending on the address, how quickly it gets picked up never does
What this crew traces most often
Two situations account for nearly every leak call around the village. An ageing joint inside the house lets go slowly, corroding at the thread until gas escapes for weeks before anyone notices.
The other is an outdoor or renovation-adjacent fitting getting knocked loose by nearby work, whether that's a deck rebuild, a boatshed repair or general garden digging near a buried line.
Why a faint smell is never worth ignoring
Ignition risk doesn't need much
A switch, a naked flame or even static electricity can set off gas sitting in the air, so treating any smell as real is never overcautious.
Breathing it isn't harmless
Kids, older residents and anyone with breathing issues are affected fastest by air that's carrying even a small amount of escaped gas.
Waiting doesn't shrink the eventual bill
Gas that's quietly leaking still shows up on the meter reading, and a fault found early is nearly always the smaller repair.
How it works
How the fix happens, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0511 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.
- 02
Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Fixed to current standard
An outdoor bayonet point gets treated with the same rigour as an indoor joint, brought up to current standard rather than patched, whether the property sits on the mainland side or across the water.
- 04
Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Church Point
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Church Point works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
A single outdoor bayonet fault gets the identical crew, price and paperwork as a full indoor gas line replacement.
Where we work
Areas we service
Bayview, Clareville, Bilgola Plateau, Newport and Mona Vale all get the same certified gasfitters, and Scotland Island plus the western foreshore get them by water, at the same fixed price.

Good questions, straight answers
Gas leak questions Church Point locals ask
Only one outdoor gas point serves the barbecue near the water. Could that honestly be the source of the smell?
It's a real possibility, an outdoor bayonet or hot plate fitting cops far more weather than anything mounted inside, and on an older cottage close to Pittwater it's often the first thing worth checking.
Everyone left through the back door in a hurry. Is that a problem for anyone who touched the fly screen on the way out?
Not at all, brushing past things is harmless, the actual risk sits in deliberately flicking a switch, lighting anything or plugging something in before the whole household has cleared the property.
How does a gasfitter actually find where the leak is instead of just guessing at it?
Calibrated detection gear gets walked along the whole run and every joint until the source shows up on the instrument, never left to whoever's nose thinks the smell is worst.
If a gasfitter comes out and genuinely can't find a leak, does that visit cost anything at all?
No, confirming there's no fault present is still covered under the $0 Call Out Fee, and a written price for repair work only ever follows an actual finding.
The property in question is across the water, not on the mainland side of the village. Does a leak there wait longer for a gasfitter?
No, an island or foreshore address gets treated on how urgent the leak is, not on travel time, and a gasfitter is on the next crossing regardless of the hour.
We've had a deck or boatshed rebuild finished recently. Could that explain a smell that's only just started?
Yes, building work close to a buried or outdoor gas run is a common trigger, vibration from drilling or foot traffic is often enough to shift a fitting that was previously fine.
