Gas Disconnections and Supply Capping
Before a property is demolished, stripped out or taken out of use, the gas supply must be isolated properly and documented. We arrange temporary or permanent disconnections, cap the service at the appropriate point and provide the paperwork your demolition contractor or building control will ask for.
What the work involves
- Confirming the supply, meter and ownership position before any isolation
- Liaison with the gas transporter and supplier to arrange the disconnection
- Temporary isolation for refurbishment, or permanent capping for demolition
- Removal of the meter and redundant pipework where required
- Documentation confirming the supply has been made safe
- Reinstatement of the excavation and surrounding surfaces

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a temporary and a permanent disconnection?
A temporary disconnection isolates the supply so it can be reinstated later, typically during refurbishment. A permanent disconnection cuts and caps the service, usually at the main, and is used ahead of demolition or where gas will never be reinstated.
How long does a gas disconnection take to arrange?
The physical work is usually short, but the lead time depends on network appointment availability and the checks required before isolation. Contact us as early as possible in your programme.
Do I get paperwork confirming the supply is capped?
Yes. You receive documentation confirming the supply has been isolated and made safe, which demolition contractors and building control commonly require before works start.
