Gas Line Repair in Lawrenceburg, TN
Lawrenceburg is a town of two systems. 34% take mains gas and 6% use propane, and only one of those arrangements has a utility on the other side of it.
Read this first
In Lawrenceburg, 34% of homes are on mains gas and 6% on bottled, so the town average settles nothing about any one address. Mains gas ends the utility's regulated line at the meter outlet; a tank supply has no such boundary.
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 Lawrenceburg is supplied
In a town with both, the useful page is the one about the arrangement you actually have. The meter is the tell: if there is one, there is a service line behind it and a boundary at its outlet.
| Households in Lawrenceburg | Share |
|---|---|
| Utility (mains) gas | 34% |
| Bottled or tank propane | 6% |

Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-year estimates, table B25040 (house heating fuel), 2023 release. Universe: 9,470 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 Tennessee as a whole, 36% of households are on mains gas and 2% on tank propane. Lawrenceburg sits about level with the state on mains and 3 points above 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
8-1-1 is free and nationwide, and PHMSA gives callers a 99 percent chance of avoiding an incident, injury or worse. Ask them what they will and will not mark: privately owned buried lines on your own side of the meter frequently are not covered.

What to ask whoever quotes it
Ask what is being left behind: where the new pipe runs, at what depth, and whether you will get a photograph of the trench before it is filled. That record will not exist anywhere else and you will want it eventually.

Checking a plumber in Tennessee
Tennessee licenses are issued by the Tennessee Board for Licensing Contractors, Department of Commerce and Insurance, 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 Lawrenceburg goes through this number as well.
