Gas fireplace repair

Fireplace & Gas Heating

Mount Eden, Auckland

Hi, trying to get my gas fireplace going and afraid I may blow the building up. I do rely on the fireplace for heating. Happy to trouble shoot over facetime if needed, just do need to get it going. It's a Real Fires fire place, but that company went into voluntary liquidation years ago. Pilot light is working, there just seems to be a problem with the gas connection. ZIt does look like a small plug has been pulled inside the fireplace, but I can't see where it should be plugged in again.

I'd like some chats with someone on the whole building process ~ process stages, approvals needed, materials used, pitfalls to look out for etc. Given we are all in lockdown might suit a qualified builder who like me is sat at home doing nothing. NZD50/ an hour paid upfront for simply chatting on the phone. Not looking for any trade secrets just an education on the building process.

Why is this Essential - our stormwater drainage has been broken by a contractor not working for us. This has resulted in the line breaking and getting blocked. This causes water to flood back into the building when it rains. (I have no idea of price. It's PVC with easy access. I'm not a drainlayer. ) Replace around 2 metres of drainage line. The line is clay pipe. It's stormwater. about 400mm down in Onehunga topsoil. I have dug down, found the break and cleared space around it. But each...
