What our customers say
Why homeowners keep our number
A licensed master plumber - not a call center or a handyman
Master-licensed, veteran-owned
Every job is done under Georgia Master Plumber License MP211014 by a veteran-owned, family-operated shop - the credential the state requires for real plumbing work, and the one worth checking before anyone touches your pipes.
One flat price, up front
You approve a set price for the job before we start - no hourly meter, no surprise line items. If what we find changes the scope, we show you and re-quote first.
Permits and inspections handled
Water heaters, repipes, and sewer or water-line work usually need a permit here. We pull it and coordinate the inspection so the work stays code-compliant and insurable.
We know Metro Atlanta's pipes
Galvanized and polybutylene in older Gwinnett and DeKalb homes; PEX and PVC in newer North Fulton and Forsyth builds; clay-soil sewer roots region-wide. We diagnose by build era, not guesswork.
Where we work
Serving Gwinnett County & Metro Atlanta
We run out of a shop in Lilburn, in the middle of Gwinnett County, and cover the northeast and central Metro ring from there - Lawrenceville, Snellville, Duluth, Norcross, and Suwanee close to home, out through Tucker, Decatur, and Stone Mountain in DeKalb, and up the GA-400 corridor to Johns Creek, Alpharetta, Roswell, and Marietta.
That local base is why we can move quickly on emergencies and why we recognize a neighborhood's plumbing by its build era before we arrive. If you want to confirm we cover your address, take a look at the communities we reach across Metro Atlanta.
Frequently asked questions
What plumbing services does Stars and Pipes Plumbing Atlanta offer?
We handle residential plumbing end to end: 24/7 emergencies and burst pipes, drain cleaning and sewer line repair, water heater repair and replacement (tank and tankless), leak and slab-leak detection, whole-home repiping and water service lines, and every fixture - toilets, faucets, sinks, showers, disposals, and sump pumps. Each service has its own page above with what's included and how we price it.
Are you a licensed and insured plumber in Georgia?
Yes. Owner Sean Nelson holds Georgia Master Plumber License MP211014, and Stars and Pipes Plumbing Atlanta LLC carries full commercial general liability insurance on every job. In Georgia, real plumbing work is licensed work - not something to hand to an unlicensed handyman - and we can provide proof of license and insurance before we start.
Do you charge flat-rate or by the hour?
We quote a flat price for the job before any work begins, so you approve the number up front instead of watching an hourly meter run. If a diagnosis changes the scope - say a camera shows a clog is really a broken line - we stop, show you what we found, and re-quote before continuing.
Do you pull permits and handle inspections?
Yes. Work like water heater replacements, repiping, sewer or water-line work, and new fixtures on new lines is generally permitted and inspected in Gwinnett County and the surrounding jurisdictions. As a licensed contractor we pull the permit and coordinate the inspection so your plumbing stays code-compliant and insurable - many homeowners are surprised that even a water-heater swap can require one.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency plumbing, and how fast can you get here?
Yes - we dispatch 24/7, and active leaks, burst pipes, and sewage backups are moved to the front of the line. We're based in Lilburn in central Gwinnett County, so response times across Gwinnett, DeKalb, and North Fulton are usually short; exact timing depends on current call volume and traffic. If you're mid-emergency, shut off the main water valve and call us.
Why do older Atlanta-area homes have so many pipe problems?
It comes down to build era. Mid-century homes often have galvanized steel supply lines that corrode and choke water pressure; homes built from the late 1970s into the mid-1990s frequently have polybutylene, which was discontinued after a landmark class-action settlement and is no longer code-approved. Add Metro Atlanta's dense, slow-draining red-clay soil and the settling trench backfill that goes with it, both of which stress buried sewer laterals, and repiping and sewer work become common here. We diagnose what you actually have before recommending anything.
What areas do you cover?
We serve Gwinnett County and the wider Metro Atlanta ring from our Lilburn base - including DeKalb, North Fulton, Forsyth, Cobb, and Walton communities. See the service-area page for the full list of cities, or call and we can confirm coverage and a response window for your address.
