Hello,

I have a white plastic box on the side of my house, housing the gas
meter. It catches all the sun and I think this has made the plastic
brittle. When I tried to unlock it, the plastic snapped in my hand.
Who is responsible for the box: me or the gas company? If the latter,
will they charge to replace it?


I think that you are responsible. When you have a meter moved, for
example, you have to provide a new box for them to put the meter
in.

If it is still in production you might be able to buy a new one and
just swap the door over.
