USP delivers multi-utility connections across London and the Home Counties, one of the UK's most demanding environments for utility infrastructure. High-density development, congested sites, and coordination with borough planning authorities and Transport for London all require experienced, accredited teams who understand the local landscape.

London and the Home Counties see some of the highest volumes of residential and commercial development in the UK. From high-rise schemes in central London to suburban housing estates in Hertfordshire and Berkshire, USP provides gas, electricity, water, and EV connections under a single contract with one dedicated project manager, cutting through the complexity of multi-stakeholder utility coordination.

USP works directly with SGN and Cadent (gas, depending on whether the site is south or north of the Thames), UK Power Networks (electricity), and Thames Water across the region, handling all applications, approvals, and network adoptions on your behalf. You get weekly updates and a detailed programme at quote stage.

Utility Connections in London and the Home Counties

Utility Connection FAQs for London and the Home Counties

London is split between two gas distribution networks. SGN covers south of the Thames, while Cadent covers north of the Thames. The Home Counties are also served by both networks depending on location. USP holds LRQA GIRS accreditation and works directly with both SGN and Cadent on all gas connection applications, design approvals, and network adoptions across the region.
Thames Water is the principal water and sewerage company across London and the Home Counties. USP holds WIRS and WIAPS accreditations and works with Thames Water on new water mains, service connections, Section 104 adoptions, and diversions throughout the region.
The electricity distribution network across London and the Home Counties is managed by UK Power Networks. USP holds LRQA NERS accreditation and handles all point of connection applications, LV and HV design, cable installation, and energisation through UK Power Networks.
Timelines vary by utility and project scale. A standard residential gas or water connection typically takes 6 to 10 weeks from design to live supply. Larger multi-plot schemes or HV electricity connections may need 12 to 20 weeks. USP handles all network operator liaison in London and the Home Counties so you get a single programme with weekly updates rather than chasing multiple suppliers.
Yes. USP holds LRQA GIRS, NERS, and WIRS accreditations which are nationally recognised and valid across the entire region. We also hold ISO 9001, Achilles UVDB Silver Plus, Constructionline, and SSIP certifications. Our team regularly delivers connections across Greater London, Hertfordshire, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, and Surrey.
Absolutely. USP is a multi-utility connection provider. We deliver gas, electricity, water, EV charging infrastructure, district heating, and disconnections under one contract with one project manager. This is especially valuable on London and Home Counties developments where you might be dealing with SGN or Cadent (depending on location), UK Power Networks, and Thames Water simultaneously.
