I am having an air source heat pump installed in September. Once my old gas boiler is gone, I will have no use for the gas supply. Unfortunately, the gas meter sits on top of a metre high steel pipe in the corner of a brick lean-to that is going to be demolished. My energy supplier, OVO, will remove the meter and cap off the top of the steel pipe, but to get the steel pipe removed, I need Cadent. I was planning to break up the concrete pad under the old lean-to and dig the trench necessary to expose the place where the gas pipe to the lean-to joins the main, which runs across several back gardens. Even with me doing all this work, Cadent are still quoting £1700 to disconnect the pipe. Completely outrageous and daylight robbery. Good luck with getting everyone to switch to renewable energy! Electricity North West are only charging £750 to re-route my electric and they are de-looping my neighbour at the same time at no charge to me. Why is it three times as much to disconnect the gas?
