We had the gas meter and pipe to the property replaced a couple of years ago. For us the approach was big up the pavement in front of the meter. Send one of those mole things to burrow most of the way for the new pipe but dig a small hole (lift flag stones for us) to retrieve it. New pipe connected and new gas meter fitted.
Our old/new meter was in the cellar mind.
I did have to go out and tell them the meter they needed to aim for (so the hole was in the wrong place on the pavement) was about 10 feet the other way. Actually they were looking for the main first.
The but that was poor was that the contractor could not connect the new meter. You had to wait for the busy British Gas engineer to arrive much later.
