  • Business premises owner's full name and telephone number
  • Whether there’s any private land (example: garden or driveway) between the business premises and the nearest footpath or road
  • Where the gas meter will be positioned at the business premises*
  • Distance in metres from the gas meter to the business premises boundary

What you'll need to to know about our quote

  • Assume the meter is in a seperate standlone housing designed speicifically for purpose
  • ​Internal meters are assumed to be within 2m meters of entry
  • Asssuming you have the right of ownership of the route of the supply pipes we will need to take from the boundary to your property

What documents are required for a  commercial gas connection?

Other than the information detailed above, you won’t be required to provide any documentation before your connection work is carried out. We’ll provide you with a quote and once it’s been accepted and paid for, our delivery team begin to plan the work and the job will be completed in approximately 6-8 weeks. We always offer the earliest date available.

Local authority restrictions can sometimes apply in certain areas or we may require road traffic management permissions, which can sometimes impact delivery timescales. If this is the case, we will let you know and keep you informed as this progresses.
