Hi Barry
All of the lines for the gas, water and electricity were already in place but we are still waiting for the gas supply company to fit the meter.Apparently the plumber has to be present at the same time as the gas company so that they can provide a safety certificate.We applied in April to have the gas connected and paid 540euros for the meter, which is a standard charge as the mains gas supply was only supplied to Ofena 10 years ago and they are now trying to recoup the cost of laying the pipework.There is a lot of paperwork involved and we had to go to the council offices to meet with the agent from the gas company who only visits once a week.
Hope this helps
Judy.
