If you’re doing some building work you may decide that you need to move your gas meter with your gas pipe. This is the type of job you probably wouldn’t know where to start with, but that’s fine. You shouldn’t be attempting to move your meter yourself as moving this is actually illegal and very dangerous. So, you’re probably wondering if your gas meter can be moved at all.
Don’t worry, here at Cadent we’re happy to help with moving your gas meters and pipes if they need moving to a new position.
Here’s all the information you need to know before getting started with an application for a quote.
The simple answer to this question is yes. Your gas meters and pipes can be moved together and Cadent can do that for you . As part of our service, we pride ourselves on aiming to exceed your expectations and provide a first-class service.
The logistics of moving your gas meters and pipes are probably not something you’ve ever had to consider before. You can rest assured Cadent will take you through every part of the process and ensure any questions you have are answered.
If you have a gas meter inside the home and are hoping to carry out some building work, such as remodelling or extension, moving your gas meter and pipes outside may be easier for you.

As with any sort of work, it really depends on the specific scale of the job at your property. The length of the job will depend on where the meter is currently located and where you wish to move it to on the property. If the meter is moving from a difficult to access indoor location to somewhere outside the home, it can take a little longer.
