I have responsibility for another property snd was advised in July that a new gas main would replace the old one - complete lack of detail timing wise from utility company but it didn’t happen until October.
Meter needed repositioning - arranged to attend to discuss plans to potentially move it outside. Arrved at time I’d advised them to discuss placement.
They ignored the arranged time of meeting and drilled through a concrete path hours earlier.
Meter eventually moved to a place I’d not have opted for outside. Once new mains connected (days later than originally advised so had to attend on a day I was working or be cut off) gas engineers found a minor leak in internal pipework pressures and could not isolate individual appliances fed by porobably old lead piping.
Old pipework disconnected rendering older internal appliances useless but at least gas boiler fed by newer copper pipework was deemed ok.
Any gas experts know if the new rules apply to any gas installations as my searches primarily resulted in new rules for rental properties which came into force in March which would have been ignored up until 30th September. Typical timing wise!
