Frequently Asked Questions

How much does gas hot water installation cost in Melbourne?

Installation costs vary depending on complexity, plus the unit price. Simple replacements cost less than new installations requiring gas line extensions or ventilation modifications. We provide upfront quotes covering everything, so you know total costs before work starts.

How long does gas hot water installation take?

Standard installations run 4-8 hours based on what's involved. Straightforward unit swaps finish quicker than jobs needing new gas lines or major plumbing work. We'll give you honest timeframes once we've looked at your setup.

Can I install a gas hot water system myself?

No. Victorian law demands licensed gas fitters handle all gas installations. DIY attempts are both illegal and dangerous–gas leaks, carbon monoxide, even explosions can result. Your insurance becomes worthless with unlicensed work. Manufacturer warranties? Gone too.

What size gas hot water system do I need for my Melbourne home?

Family size drives your hot water needs more than anything else. Daily shower habits matter too. Location affects installation options significantly. Most four-person homes work well with 135-170 litre storage systems, though 16-26 litre continuous flow units suit some situations better. We'll check your specific setup and recommend the perfect capacity for reliable hot water supply.

Do you provide warranties on gas hot water installation?

Absolutely. Every installation gets full warranty coverage on parts and our workmanship. Equipment manufacturers back their products separately, while we guarantee the installation work itself meets standards. Full compliance certificates prove everything meets Australian standards.

I reached out to Craigs Gas and Plumbing for oven repairs, and I am happy I did. They arrived promptly and were all business. They got right to the problem, had it cleaned and fixed in no time and now my oven works like a charm! I thought the replacement part might be a problem, but they got it on the spot and worked efficiently. The price was fair, the service was fantastic, and I don't know what else to say. I will be recommending them to my friends!

I had a great experience with the their gas heater service. The serviceman and assistant were both very polite and helpful. So, I had 4 heaters I wanted to be serviced for the first time in many years (guilty), and they did a great job. The booking was easy, and they were very accommodating about finding a time that fit my work schedule. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

We wanted to replace the space heater for our rental property at Sydenham, VIC 3037. Craig was very helpful, gave the next day booking after coordinating with the tenants. Price was competitive. Would definitely use their services again!
