Why Choose Our Gas Meter Installation Survey Service?
Our gas meter installation survey service ensures your gas systems are installed safely and efficiently, while adhering to UK regulations.
Thorough Site Inspection
We carry out detailed site surveys to assess the best location for your gas meter, ensuring accessibility and safety. For example, we recently helped a manufacturing facility choose a new spot for their gas meter. Our survey identified potential hazards in the original location, allowing us to suggest a safer and more practical site, reducing downtime and improving safety.
Immediate Response
When things go wrong, you need fast help. We recently worked with a client who was concerned about their current meter setup not being compliant with new safety regulations. We conducted a survey and identified key improvements needed. We quickly corrected the issues, ensuring their system was back on track and fully compliant.
Minimal Disruption During Installations
Our goal is to ensure a smooth process from start to finish. We work around your business schedule to minimise any disruptions. For example, during a recent project for a logistics company, we performed the gas meter survey and installation during their off-peak hours. This allowed the company to maintain normal operations without interruption.
Long-Term Support
We don’t just leave after installation. We offer ongoing support to ensure your meter remains compliant and performs efficiently. For instance, a retail client recently had a system installed by us. We provided follow-up checks to confirm everything continued to meet the latest safety standards, giving them confidence in their setup.
