Commercial Gas Meter Assessment – Tunstall Library Conversion (Stoke-on-Trent)

We’ve recently attended site to carry out an inspection and assessment of acommercial gas meter installation at the old Tunstall Library in Stoke-on-Trent.The building is currently undergoing redevelopment and will soon be converted intonew residential apartments, which means the existing gas supply arrangement needs to be reviewed and alteredas part of the works.

At Gasmaster, we regularly support property developers, landlords, and contractors with
commercial gas work, including meter alterations, disconnections, upgrades and certification.

Site Visit: Commercial Gas Meter Inspection

The purpose of this initial visit was to:

  • Check the condition of the existing commercial gas meter and associated pipework
  • Identify the safest method for disconnection and removal
  • Confirm what works are required to meet current regulations and site requirements
  • Plan the next stage of works in line with the building conversion programme

Commercial gas meter installations require careful planning, safe isolation procedures and the correct documentation —
especially in buildings being repurposed for residential use.

Next Steps: Disconnecting and Removing the Existing Meter

Following the inspection, the next phase of work will involve
disconnecting and removing the existing commercial gas meter,
ensuring the process is completed safely and in compliance with the correct standards.

This is an important part of the overall conversion works, helping to make sure the site is prepared correctly for its new use
and that the gas installation is suitable moving forward.

All work will be carried out professionally with safety as the top priority, including correct isolation procedures and checks
before and after disconnection.
