New pipework runs, alterations for a refurbishment or extension, and pipework sized correctly for the appliances and plant you actually have — ComGas designs, installs and alters commercial gas pipework for offices, schools, retail premises and other commercial buildings across Surrey and surrounding counties.
Pipework is the part of a gas installation that is easiest to get wrong later.
Commercial gas pipework has to be sized correctly for the appliances and plant it serves, routed sensibly through a building, and installed so that it can be maintained, tested and, eventually, altered again without unnecessary disruption. Getting this right at the outset avoids problems further down the line — undersized pipework that limits future appliance capacity, or a run that is difficult to access for future testing and maintenance.
This page covers gas-specific pipework work only. If you also need general commercial water or heating pipework — for plumbing, hot water or heating distribution rather than gas — that sits within our wider commercial plumbing and heating services; see our Plumbing & Heating page for that scope. ComGas carries out gas pipework design, installation and alteration as a standalone piece of work, or as part of a wider boiler, plant room or refurbishment project.
Every new or altered gas pipework installation is tightness tested, and purged where required, before it is put back into service — see our dedicated Gas Tightness Testing and Gas Purging pages for how those stages work.

Commercial gas pipework services
New installations, alterations and pipework sized for your equipment.
Whether it is a single new appliance connection or a full plant room feed, we assess the existing installation and design pipework to suit.
New Pipework Installation
Design and installation of new commercial gas pipework runs, sized to the appliances and plant they will serve.
New pipework runs for boilers, catering equipment and plant
Sizing based on actual and anticipated demand
Routing planned around access and future maintenance
We start by assessing the existing pipework and installation, the appliances and plant it needs to serve now, and any reasonably anticipated future demand. From there we design a route and pipe sizing that fits the building, before agreeing the scope and any access or working-hours constraints with you.
Installation is carried out by Gas Safe registered engineers, with the work sequenced around your operations where the building is occupied. Once installed, the pipework is tightness tested and, where required, purged, before any appliance connected to it is commissioned or put back into service.
Assessment of existing pipework and installation
Pipe sizing based on actual and anticipated demand
Routing planned for practical future access
Installation by Gas Safe registered engineers
Tightness testing and purging on completion
Work sequenced around occupied or operational buildings
Every commercial building presents different constraints — occupied space, restricted access routes, other services sharing the same ceiling void or riser, and operating hours that limit when disruptive work can happen. We consider all of this before finalising a design, so the route we propose is one that can realistically be installed, maintained and, if needed, altered again in future.
Access and working-hours constraints identified early
Existing services and risers considered in the routing
Isolation valves positioned for practical future maintenance
Co-ordination with other trades on a wider project
Documentation of the completed installation provided
Every pipework project is scoped to the specific building and installation. Sizing, routing and sequencing are agreed with you before work begins rather than assumed from a standard template.

Incredible service — problems fixed perfectly once again.
Lee, Paul and the team at COMGAS are fantastic. They arrived on time and got straight to work, quickly identifying the root cause of the plumbing and heating issues I was experiencing.
The problems were diagnosed swiftly, I was kept fully informed throughout, and both issues were fixed with impressive speed and precision.
Having worked in the industry for nearly 20 years, I know how rare it is to find reliable, trustworthy, and genuinely skilled professionals — let alone a team this good.
I joked about it at the time, but it’s true: I had the best shower I’ve ever had in this house after they finished the job — and I’ve lived here for 10 years!
I honestly couldn’t ask for more and can’t recommend COMGAS highly enough.

Lee came out to the school I work in to look at a problem with our heating, he diagnosed the issue and was able to fix it on the spot in a neat and tidy manor. Would highly recommend

I recently used Comgas for a gas and heating service, and I couldn't be more impressed! From start to finish, their team was professional, friendly, and highly knowledgeable. They quickly identified the issue with my heating system and explained everything in detail, offering both short- and long-term solutions.
The technician was punctual and took extra care to ensure everything was running smoothly. I really appreciated their attention to detail and how they made sure to clean up after the work was completed. My home is now warm and cozy, all thanks to their expert service. I highly recommend Comgas for anyone looking for reliable, efficient, and trustworthy gas and heating professionals!

Commercial gas pipework FAQs
Questions about commercial gas pipework
Common questions about designing, installing and altering commercial gas pipework.
How do you decide what size pipework a building needs?
Pipe sizing is based on the actual gas demand of the appliances and plant being served, along with any reasonably anticipated future demand, taking account of pipe run length and any pressure loss along the route. We assess this before finalising a design rather than using a standard size regardless of the installation.
Can you alter existing pipework as part of a refurbishment?
Yes. We regularly extend, re-route or amend existing commercial gas pipework as part of refurbishment, fit-out or change-of-use projects. We assess the existing installation first, so the alteration is designed around what is actually there rather than assumed.
Is pipework tested after installation?
Yes. Every new or altered pipework installation is tightness tested, and purged where required, before any connected appliance is commissioned or put back into service. See our dedicated Commercial Gas Tightness Testing and Gas Purging pages for more detail on each stage.
Do you carry out pipework work in occupied buildings?
Yes, this is common. We discuss access, working hours and any specific operational constraints before agreeing a programme, and sequence work to minimise disruption where the building remains in use during the project.
Can pipework work be combined with a boiler or plant installation?
Yes. Pipework is frequently part of a wider project such as a new boiler, plant room upgrade or catering equipment installation. We can scope the pipework alongside the main installation so the two are properly co-ordinated.
What is included in the pipework scope you provide?
A pipework quotation sets out the proposed route, sizing and any isolation valves or access points included, along with the tightness testing and purging carried out on completion. Anything outside that agreed scope is separately discussed before it is added to the work.
Planning new pipework, an alteration, or a plant room feed?
Tell us about the building, the appliances or plant involved and any access or timescale constraints. We can advise on the right approach and arrange a survey where appropriate.
