Gas Line Services in Tyrone, GA

Is Tyrone on Atlanta Gas Light?

Yes. Georgia 811 lists Atlanta Gas Light as the emergency gas operator for Fayette County, and no municipal gas system was found for Tyrone. AGL owns the pipes and meters; residents buy gas from a certificated marketer. For a leak, leave the house, call 911 and AGL at 877.427.4321.

What kind of gas work do Tyrone homes need?

Tyrone is a small town in the northwest corner of Fayette County, bordered by Peachtree City, Fulton County and Coweta County. Census survey data put the median build year at 2000, with about 13% built before 1980. Most homes have flexible stainless tubing or a mix of tubing and black iron, and many sit on larger lots. That makes outdoor and long-run gas jobs common: lines to pool heaters, outdoor kitchens, detached garages and standby generators. Longer runs need larger pipe to keep full pressure at the far end, so sizing is the first step. Flexible tubing also needs a bonding wire to the electrical grounding.

Who issues the permit?

The Town of Tyrone Building Department issues residential plumbing trade permits, with permits and inspections handled by SAFEbuilt. Applications go through Community Core, which requires an account. The plumber normally applies, pressure tests the new piping and schedules the inspection.

A Tyrone note

Before trenching for any yard line, call Georgia 811 so buried utility lines are marked. When you call the number on this page, an independent plumber who works in Fayette County will ask about the distance from the meter to the new appliance, which drives most of the planning.

For repairs, the order is the same as anywhere on the AGL system: AGL makes the situation safe and may lock the meter, the plumber finds and fixes the leak on your side and pressure tests the piping, and once the work passes, AGL restores service. Replacing an old connector or adding a missing shutoff during the same visit is usually worth it, since those are common weak points. Ask the plumber to label the shutoff valves while they are there, so everyone in the house knows where to turn off gas to each appliance.
