Read this first
In Hull, gas heats 14% of households and electricity heats most of the rest. A property with gas there is likelier to have a tank than a utility connection, so there is often no meter boundary in the picture at all.
Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey table B25040; the service line boundary is 49 CFR § 192.3.
If you smell gas right now
Leave the building on foot. Do not use a phone or a light switch inside. Call 911 and your gas utility from somewhere else, and do not call us — we are a referral service, not an emergency line. The full list, in order.
How Hull is supplied
A town with little gas still has gas somewhere, and the arrangement matters just as much on the properties that have it. What changes is how many contractors nearby work on it regularly.
That is worth knowing when you are choosing one: ask how much gas work they actually do, not just whether they can.
| Households in Hull | Share |
|---|---|
| Utility (mains) gas | 10% |

Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-year estimates, table B25040 (house heating fuel), 2023 release. Universe: 3,311 occupied housing units. This is the heating-fuel table. It does not enumerate service lines, and no table does at this geography; what it gives is the best available indication of which arrangement a property is on. Service line definition: 49 CFR § 192.3, via PHMSA interpretation PI-12-0003.
Across Georgia as a whole, 51% of households are on mains gas and 3% on tank propane. Hull sits 41 points below the state on mains and about level with it on propane. Averages are where this kind of difference disappears. The figures on this page are the town’s own for that reason.
Before anyone digs on the property
Excavation damage remains the leading cause of pipeline incidents according to PHMSA. That is not a fact about pipelines so much as a fact about gardening, and the prevention is one free call to 8-1-1 before the first spade goes in.

What to ask whoever quotes it
If any part of the job is in the ground, ask when they are calling 8-1-1 and whether a private line may be in the way. Both answers should come before the excavation, not during it.

Checking a plumber in Georgia
Georgia licenses are issued by the Georgia Secretary of State, Division of Master and Journeyman Plumbers, which publishes a public search you can use before work begins.
Gas work is separately permitted and separately licensed in most jurisdictions, so ask specifically about gas rather than plumbing in general.
For repair work, not for a suspected leak.If you can smell gas, leave and call 911 or your utility from outside; this is the wrong number for that. For everything else — a line, a meter, an appliance connection — we will route you to a contractor covering your area, free of charge to you. Non-emergency work in Hull goes through this number as well.
