Gas Fitter in Toukley

Natural gas in Toukley

Toukley is connected to the reticulated natural gas network. We still confirm the connection at the meter before quoting, because a network in the street does not mean every property is connected to it.

The supply comes in over Toukley Bridge. Jemena’s contractor, Zinfra, describes a 100 mm steel main laid in the bridge duct in 1990 as “the only gas supply into the area”. In April 2020 it ran a temporary bypass along the walkway and slid a new plastic main inside the old one.

Where a property is not connected, the same appliances can run on LPG cylinders. We tell you which applies before the price is fixed.

Local context

Gas work in Toukley homes

Toukley Bridge crosses the channel between Tuggerah Lake and Budgewoi Lake, and the gas main into the area runs in the bridge duct. Wyong Shire Council’s 2010 Toukley Planning Strategy describes detached cottages alongside dual occupancies, villas, townhouses and some three-storey units, so a gas job can be a house with its own meter or a unit where the building’s supply decides the work. When a gas hot water unit is replaced, we check its position and clearances against the current standard before quoting.
