USP has delivered utility connections across the South East, including a water network installation for a new hospital in Bexhill-on-Sea, where we installed 140 metres of 180mm barrier pipe within one month, achieving 100% compliance with zero audit issues.

The South East is one of the UK's most active regions for residential and commercial development, driven by proximity to London and strong demand for new housing. USP delivers gas, electricity, water, and EV connections under a single contract with one dedicated project manager.

We work directly with SGN (gas), UK Power Networks (electricity), and Southern Water and South East Water across the region, handling all applications and approvals on your behalf. You get weekly updates and a detailed programme at quote stage, so there are no surprises.

Utility Connections in the South East

Utility Connection FAQs for the South East

The main gas distribution network in the South East is SGN (Southern Gas Networks), which covers Kent, Sussex, Surrey, Hampshire, and surrounding areas. USP holds LRQA GIRS accreditation and works directly with SGN on all gas connection applications, design approvals, and network adoptions across the region.
Southern Water and South East Water are the principal water companies across the South East. USP holds WIRS and WIAPS accreditations and works with both Southern Water and South East Water on new water mains, service connections, Section 104 adoptions, and diversions throughout the region.
The South East electricity distribution network is managed by UK Power Networks (UKPN), which covers Kent, Sussex, Surrey, and East Anglia. 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 South East 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 South East region. We also hold ISO 9001, Achilles UVDB Silver Plus, Constructionline, and SSIP certifications. Our team regularly delivers connections across Kent, Sussex, Surrey, and Hampshire.
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 South East developments where you might be dealing with SGN, UK Power Networks, and Southern Water or South East Water simultaneously.
