Gas Line Repair in Dayhoit, KY
No household in Dayhoit was recorded as heating with gas, mains or bottled, in the survey behind this page. Where a supply does exist it will be a tank on the property rather than a utility line under the street.
Read this first
Where a town records no gas heating at all, as Dayhoit does, a gas line is the exception rather than the rule — and the exception is almost always a tank: no meter, no regulated utility line, and no boundary at which responsibility changes hands.
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 Dayhoit is supplied
Where most homes are electric, gas work is a specialty and less common, and the properties that do have gas are often the older or the larger ones.
The rules do not change with the local share. If there is a mains connection there is a service line ending at the meter outlet under 49 CFR § 192.3, and if there is a tank the whole installation is the owner’s.
| Households in Dayhoit | Share |
|---|---|
| Utility (mains) gas | 0% |
| Bottled or tank propane | 0% |
| Electricity | 95% |
| Fuel oil and kerosene | 5% |
| Wood and everything else | 0% |

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 Kentucky as a whole, 37% of households are on mains gas and 5% on tank propane. Dayhoit sits 37 points below the state on mains and about level with it on propane. That distance from the state average is the whole argument for publishing a town figure at all.
Before anyone digs on the property
Digging is the risk, not age or material. PHMSA names excavation damage as the leading cause of pipeline incidents and puts a caller’s chance of avoiding one at 99 percent. 8-1-1 is nationwide, toll-free, and costs nothing.

What to ask whoever quotes it
Ask how much gas work they actually do, not whether they can. Gas is separately licensed in most jurisdictions and plenty of capable plumbers do very little of it.

Checking a plumber in Kentucky
Kentucky licenses are issued by the Kentucky Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction, Division of Plumbing, 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. We serve Dayhoit for plumbing that has nothing to do with gas.
