With water some ‘plumbers’ are certified by Water companies to do the mains laying, testing and connection so may be similar for gas.
Alternatively look for a self lay company

Pretty sure you can't just get any gas engineer to fuck about with the supply pipes. If its between the gas main and your meter it would need to be done by the gas network people. Then only the utility supplier can move the actual meter. For anything after the meter, you can get any (qualified) gas engineer to do it.
Find out who they are from here https://www.energynetworks.org/operating-the-networks/whos-my-network-operator. They will probably have a link on their website to generate a quote request, as you would if you want a new supply / remove a redundant one etc.

Following on from my last post, while my water supply is getting dug up and re-laid, I'd like to re-route my gas supply which comes in at the same spot and shares the meter box with the stop-cock, but does so in a messy way . Given that the gas has to be done by a gas engineer, are there any kind of firms who I should be looking for who could handle the whole lot? Just a builder with a gas guy to do that bit?
I'm assuming here that we could connect a new pipe on to existing where it enters the property, or does it need to be an uninterrupted pipe right back to the gas main?
