  2. Groundie's wanted for scrub clearance work next week, Small easy stuff, Just been let down by two lads. must have 30,31 and CSCS cards or Lantra card and own saw and tools will hire saw if needed. Nottingham area with work in orther areas coming up. Pm me for more details.
  3. you might also take the time to read HSg 47 as this sets out the basic before you brake the surface guide lines for service avoidance to be followed.
  4. Ok gas pipe! Here is what to do! Take photo showing the depth of the pipe! I take it was a house feed 19mm and not bigger, show the Finish Ground Level and top of pipe, take a photo of the Pipe to show type and tell tails as talked about below. Report to the gas board turn the gas off to the property (this is very important) if you have Denso tape wrap it around the pipe to stem the flow then report the findings to your insurance! because if the feed is less then 450mm from finish ground level then the fault is on the gas board!!! Your insurance will fight this! BS code of practice states that all services in soft ground must be at least 450mm deep, 750mm in foot paths and roads. adding to this house feed under 30mm Dia do not need warning tape over them!! But you should have a copy of stats drawings and have a Calibrated CAT and Genny on site and a copy of your training Cert you might of been able to miss the service, I have known services to micro board! These feeds can be board under trees and hit in the past and this is also the fault of GAS Supplier! there are tell tails signs on the plastic pipe if this was the installation type used. All information should then be handed back to your insurance Who - will fight your case for you. Just like to add that interfering with gas supplies (damaging them and not reporting them) is an Offence and can lead to imprisonment or large fines. Hence Turn the Gas Supply Off at the house. The last thing you want is the HSE breathing down your back.
