Gas leaks are a serious safety hazard. A single spark can cause an explosion, a small leak can release deadly carbon monoxide, and delays can endanger lives. If you smell gas or suspect a leak, act immediately.
At Deadshort Services, our licensed Adelaide gas fitters provide fast, 24/7 emergency gas leak repairs using advanced detection technology to pinpoint and fix problems quickly, safely, and in full compliance with Australian Standards – AS/NZS 5601. With over 35 years of experience, we deliver reliable solutions you can trust—day or night.
Gas leaks don’t wait, and neither should you. Risks include:
Explosion or fire from even the smallest ignition source
Carbon monoxide poisoning—colourless, odourless, and potentially fatal
Environmental damage and costly gas wastage
The safest step is simple: leave the property, avoid using switches or flames, and follow SA Government gas safety guidelines.
Common warning signs include:
Strong smell of rotten eggs or sulphur
Hissing or whistling noises from pipes, appliances, or gas meters
Headaches, dizziness, or nausea that improves outside
Dead or discoloured plants near gas lines
Pilot lights going out or changing flame colour
Unexpected spike in your gas bill
Evacuate immediately – get everyone to fresh air.
Do not use electrical switches, mobile phones, or naked flames.
Turn off the gas supply at the meter only if it’s safe to do so.
Call Deadshort Services 24/7 – we’ll be on our way immediately.
