Testimonials
“As M&E consulting engineers, we utilised the independent advice provided by Squire Energy to resolve a complex issue on a major gas supply to Greater London House, in Camden. Where the bigger utility providers were unable to resolve issue, Chris and Mark from Squire’s team provided prompt and concise technical advice with a network capacity check, design and gas meter replacement, which resolved all the issues and enabled us to successfully satisfy our client.”

“As any Architect like me knows getting the buildings built is one thing; getting them connected up to the mains is quite another. Lack of capacity, delays in completion, changes in cost and the split responsibilities of shippers and networks now makes the whole issue a nightmare.
In my capacity as the Member for Premises of The Richmond Golf Club the prospect of procuring a new larger gas main 500m long and a new meter installation to our Grade 1 Listed building looked pretty much the same nightmare in waiting. I was however introduced to Squire energy who dealt the whole project. It helped that we could dig our own trench but the whole bureaucracy was dealt wonderfully easily by Squire and what could have been a really complicated project was managed without a hitch. We are very pleased to have met them.”

“We have found over the years that many of our dealings with mains services providers and statutory undertakers are challenging, but perhaps less so since the market was opened up to competition and companies such as Squire became involved. I do want to thank you for the effort which you have put into getting live gas onto site at Washwood Heath. To me it’s the way in which problems are dealt with that define businesses in the eyes of the customer.”
David Shelley
Contract Manager at Balfour Beatty
“I would just like to write this quick note, to say that the Squire Energy team were a breath of fresh air, in this industry where too
many people have a can’t do attitude. You have delivered what you promised and especially grateful considering the short notice I gave you caused by the pressures from above. It is the only thing that has gone right today.”
Mike George
Project Manager at Crest Nicholson
Service from Squire Energy is always very good, with Mark and the team always prompt to respond to queries, forthcoming with helpful information and proactive when resolving site issues.
Gareth Rees
Project Manager, Welsh Power
“Squire Energy is a breath of fresh air in this industry, with a real ‘can-do’ attitude. Squire Energy delivered as promised, despite short-notice and pressure from above. I am especially grateful.”
Mike George
Project Manager, Crest Nicholson London
“I would like to thank Squire Energy for doing an excellent job isolating and de-commissioning the MPG & LPG mains at Brighton. The work was done efficiently and without any complaints from the Hospital, especially as the work was carried out on a ‘Blue Route’.”
Jim Cresswell
Project Leader, Laing O’Rourke Group
“I’m more than happy with the service Squire Energy provided; the works were very efficient and caused no disruption, and even the letter posted to Residents of Park Crescent Mews West was a nice touch.”
