0450 963 633Gas Fitter in Bardon, Brisbane
Bardon spreads over the steep foothills below Mount Coot-tha, between Paddington, Red Hill and Ashgrove, with Ithaca Creek winding through the valley. The suburb takes its name from Bardon House, a stone residence built in the 1860s. Its homes range from Queenslanders and interwar timber houses to post-war brick and large modern rebuilds that step down the slopes. Natural gas mains reach some Bardon streets but not others, so many homes run on LPG. Cockatoo Plumbing Electrical is based in Toowong, Brisbane, a short drive away, and does licensed gas fitting across Bardon. Phone 0450 963 633.
Hillside pipe runs
A gas line on a Bardon block may climb or drop several metres between the cylinders or meter and the kitchen. Exposed pipe under high-set houses and along retaining walls needs proper support and protection, and the route should avoid garden beds that will be dug later. We size the pipe for its full length and for all the appliances it serves.
LPG on steep sites
LPG cylinders must stand on a firm, level base with clearance from openings and drains, and the delivery driver needs safe access. On a steep driveway that sometimes means a new slab near the street and a longer pipe run to the house. Cylinders are tested every 10 years, and old regulators are replaced when they show wear.
Kitchens and water heaters
Bardon renovations often bring a new gas cooktop on an island bench and a continuous flow water heater mounted outside. The water heater’s flue has to clear windows, eaves and doors by set distances, which can be tricky where a house is close to the slope behind it.
Outdoor areas
Decks with city or mountain views are a big part of Bardon living. A bayonet point lets a barbecue or patio heater connect to the house supply without changing bottles.
