If you smell gas in Vinings, leave and call 911 and Atlanta Gas Light at 877.427.4321 from outside. Repairs and new lines past the meter are plumber work, so call the number on this page to be connected with a local plumber in Vinings.

Vinings is an affluent unincorporated community on the Chattahoochee across from Buckhead, and its 30339 ZIP mails as "Atlanta." Atlanta Gas Light is the assumed pipe utility, though AGL service was not confirmed on its service-area page, so check your bill. Census survey data put the median build year at 1996, with about 21% built before 1980.
What to do right now
- Gas smell? Leave, including from a condo or townhome, and warn neighbors.
- From outside, call 911 and Atlanta Gas Light at 877.427.4321.
- Stay out until cleared.
- Book the repair. In a condo, check with the association about who owns which piping before work starts.

Calling for help
The number on this page connects you with an independent plumber who handles gas piping in Vinings and nearby Cobb. Because the mailing address says Atlanta, people sometimes assume City of Atlanta permits apply; they do not, since Vinings is unincorporated Cobb County. The plumber files with the county's Building Division and schedules the inspection after a pressure test.
Many Vinings homes are townhomes and condos, where meters may be grouped and gas piping can pass through shared spaces. Before work starts, confirm with the association which piping is yours and how access to the meter bank works. Detached homes near Paces Ferry Road often have outdoor kitchens and fire features, which need their own protected lines and shutoffs. If AGL has locked a meter after a leak call, the repair and a passing test come before service is restored, and appliances are relit afterward.
