I'm drawing up the regs drawings for an extension, it is being built above an existing gas pipe leading from the road to the meter inside the house. I know that legally British Gas should install a new pipe/meter that will not be built over and remain accessible and that shall be my official advice to the client.
However my question is that if the builder was a bit dodgy as was the owner and they weren't too bothered about building over it, if Building Control were to ever get wind of it could they (BC) insist it be relocated or would that not fall under their jurisdiction?
