About the owner
Over 21 years in the gas industry
With over 21 years of experience in the gas industry, I have built a broad and varied skill set across the domestic, industrial and commercial gas sectors. I began my career in 2005 in domestic boiler installation and servicing, before moving into a role as a First Call Operative (FCO) with Northern Gas Networks, where I worked until around 2014.
I then moved into the commercial gas sector, where I have continued to develop my experience and expertise. Throughout my career I have worked with three of the largest Meter Asset Managers (MAMs) in the industry, Energy Assets, SMS plc and National Gas PLC, carrying out a wide range of work on low and medium pressure industrial and commercial gas meters. This has included installations, exchanges, removals, commissioning and maintenance.
Building K&A Gas Solutions
In late 2019 I set up my own business, K&A Gas Solutions, named after the initials of my two daughters. Following the start of contracts with Triio and Gasworks/Smartworks UK, the business has got off to a positive start. As a working director, I stay hands-on with the day-to-day work while running the business, and I take great pride in shaping its future through hard work, commitment and the quality of the service we deliver.
How we work
We pride ourselves on a safe, efficient, honest and reliable service. Good communication matters as much as the work itself, so we keep both clients and end customers informed at every stage, with clear expectations about the work involved.
If you are looking for an experienced, dependable and straightforward service provider for industrial and commercial gas metering, please get in touch.
