I've moved to a new house and gas hub is constantly sparking. Anyone knows how to fix/work-around the problem please?

sounds like the ignition switch is stuck. Either that or the lighter mechanism is knackered and will need replacing. Which probably means you'll have to replace the hob. Try looking in yellow pages etc, for someone who does cooker repairs. It may be possible to fix / replace, you never know

Push the button side ways it sounds as if the button is stuck in. If you can pull the button out give it a clean push a Q tip in that should do the trick.

Sounds dangerous. Make sure you never have a leak. Get an engineer to have a look at it.

I had same problem with mine. Ignition switch was worn out. I just disconnected electrics and now light with matches.

If its the ignition button, try twisting it, sometimes with mine it comes loose causing it to short

If you are talking about your gas stove, you better call the gas company before you burn your house down!
