Why Choose a Multi Utility Company?
When it comes to coordinating your Multi Utility Connections, you’ll want to choose a company that can do everything, all under one roof. Otherwise, you’ll experience the headache of having to metaphorically herd kittens, making sure the installation is completed on schedule and within your budget.
This means finding a business that can handle all of your Utility Connections, whether that’s for Gas, Water, Electricity, Sewerage, Metering Services, or Ducting. Let’s delve into the benefits of hiring a Multi Utility Company:
1. Effortless Communication
Once you have found a Multi Utility Company, you can effortlessly communicate with one individual, instead of requesting quotes from multiple different providers.
You only have one phone number to call if you have any questions or concerns. This way, you’ll also minimise your paperwork and admin responsibilities and leave your Multi Utility Connection needs in the capable hands of your utility service provider. Plus, you don’t have to worry about miscommunication from one company to another, which can lead to crossed wires and confusion.
2. Streamlined Project Management
From the initial stages of planning and design to securing regulatory Section 50 road licences, street work permits, and traffic management, everything to do with your Multi Utility Connections will be taken care of for you, guaranteeing minimal hassle and stress.
All of your Utility Services will be laid to the correct specification for the specified distribution network operator, with the required clearances to NJUG standards. Therefore, you won’t have various utility teams tripping over themselves and waiting for one installation to be completed, and your Utility Connections will be done right the first time, avoiding safety failures or the need to re-dig and fix issues. You don’t have to worry about coordinating multiple contractors – all of the coordination will be done for you!
3. Increased Efficiency & Time Savings
With one dedicated project manager overseeing an entire team of engineers, your Multi Utility Connections can be installed in a single, shared trench. This, in turn, means your project will be completed not only on time but also quicker than if you had multiple teams installing different Utility Services, minimising disruptions to road networks.
Once your Water and Gas Connections have been pressure-tested and your Electricity Connections have been checked for continuity, your installation will be live in minimal time, without the need to wait for multiple inspectors, which could cause delays to your expected schedule.
4. Cost Efficiency for Your Business
By minimising your installation time, you significantly lower your ongoing costs. With a range of in-house engineers, you can opt for a cheaper alternative to hiring multiple other companies. Using the same trench for all your utilities also reduces your excavation costs, providing a cost-effective, all-in-one solution.
You also don’t have to worry about costly redesigns if your entire Utility Installation has been planned by one company from the get-go. What’s more, at the end of the day, you’ll only receive one bill for all of the work being completed, avoiding any unexpected fees.
5. Enhanced Safety & Accountability
When you use one multi utility company for all your connections, your project planning stays organised, reducing the risk of excavations required once the installation is complete, whilst improving your site safety with professionals who have experience with working with all types of utilities, allowing the work to be completed to meet rigorous industry standards.
If you come across any issues, a comprehensive team can problem-solve and work together to resolve them, thanks to their extensive industry knowledge. Plus, if they make a mistake, they can hold their hands up and accept responsibility, fixing it as necessary without blaming other contractors.
