Pricing guide

Costs vary depending on whether the job is a straightforward like‑for‑like replacement, a new installation or a high‑complexity system that needs multi‑trade coordination. Simple swaps typically require standard parts and less labour, while relocations or specialist systems often need extra supply runs, fittings and on‑site coordination. Access, compliance requirements and after‑hours attendance can also influence the final quote.

  • Installation type and complexity

    Like‑for‑like replacements are usually simpler than new installs or relocations that require additional routing or mounting.

  • Unit and material requirements

    Standard replacement units generally need typical fittings, whereas specialist or larger systems require specialised components and more materials.

  • Supply runs and service upgrades

    Jobs needing new electrical or gas supply runs, or significant switchboard or gas‑line work, typically increase labour and may be quoted separately.

  • Access, roof and scaffolding needs

    Roof penetrations, high‑level mounting or restricted access usually add time and may require scaffolding or lifting gear.

  • Compliance, permits and certification

    New gas installations or relocations often involve compliance checks and permits which affect scope and may incur additional fees.
