USP delivers multi-utility connections across the North West, one of the UK's most dynamic regions for development and regeneration. From major residential schemes in Greater Manchester to commercial projects along the M62 corridor, our nationally accredited team handles gas, electricity, water, and EV connections under a single contract.

The North West is home to some of the UK's largest regeneration programmes, with significant housing and commercial development activity in Manchester, Liverpool, Warrington, and Preston. USP's multi-utility model means you deal with one project manager and one contract, regardless of how many utilities your project needs.

USP works directly with Cadent (gas), Electricity North West, and United Utilities across the region, handling all applications, approvals, and network adoptions on your behalf. Our Coventry headquarters gives us excellent access to the North West via the M6, and our nationally recognised accreditations (GIRS, NERS, WIRS) are valid across the entire region.

Utility Connections in the North West

Utility Connection FAQs for the North West

The main gas distribution network in the North West is Cadent, which covers Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, Cheshire, and surrounding areas. USP holds LRQA GIRS accreditation and works directly with Cadent on all gas connection applications, design approvals, and network adoptions across the region.
United Utilities is the principal water and sewerage company across the North West. USP holds WIRS and WIAPS accreditations and works with United Utilities on new water mains, service connections, Section 104 adoptions, and diversions throughout the region.
The North West electricity distribution network is managed by Electricity North West. USP holds LRQA NERS accreditation and handles all point of connection applications, LV and HV design, cable installation, and energisation through the local DNO.
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 the North West 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 North West region. We also hold ISO 9001, Achilles UVDB Silver Plus, Constructionline, and SSIP certifications. Our team regularly delivers connections across Greater Manchester, Merseyside, Lancashire, and Cheshire.
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 North West developments where you might be dealing with Cadent, Electricity North West, and United Utilities simultaneously.
