Common plumbing problems in Duluth homes
Corroded galvanized pipe and weak pressure
Duluth's 1970s and '80s split-levels near the historic core were plumbed in galvanized steel that rusts shut from the inside. A PEX or copper repipe restores full flow.
Pinhole leaks at pipe fittings
Homes from the early 1990s often carry polybutylene supply lines that split at the fittings. Best replaced before one bursts behind a wall.
A water heater past its expected life
From 1990s subdivisions to the Sugarloaf estates, tanks past 10–12 years tend to fail without warning. We diagnose and repair or replace, often the same day.
Recurring main-line backups
Older sewer laterals tie into county mains laid back in the 1970s, and roots find the cracks. We camera the line first, then repair only what's failed.
A warm spot underfoot or a spike in the water bill
The signs of a slab leak under a Duluth ranch or newer on-slab build. We pinpoint it non-invasively before it reaches the foundation.
Adding a gas range, dryer, or generator
A new gas line, permitted and inspected to City of Duluth code — our second specialty alongside plumbing.

About the area
Your Local Plumber in Duluth, GA
Few Gwinnett cities span as wide a build range as Duluth. The split-levels near the historic downtown date to the 1970s and ’80s and still run galvanized steel, the early-’90s subdivisions brought polybutylene, and the Sugarloaf estates and newer communities like Berkeley Village add their own mix — so repiping and water-heater work are among the the jobs that span Duluth’s unusually wide build range.
Water and sewer come through the Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources, which laid many of the area’s mains back in the 1970s, so everything past your meter is ours — the same as bringing gas out to a range, dryer, or standby generator and permitting it through the city.
Duluth sits right next door to our base, one of the Gwinnett County communities we cover from the Lilburn shop — close enough that an emergency call is usually a same-day visit.
Not sure whether it's an emergency? Tell us what's happening and we'll often gauge how urgent it is over the phone before you book a visit — no obligation. Call 770-398-STAR.

What our Duluth customers say
Frequently asked questions
Is Stars and Pipes Plumbing Atlanta based near Duluth?
Yes. We work out of Lilburn (30047), just minutes from Duluth by way of Pleasant Hill Road or Peachtree Industrial Boulevard — not a call center routing a contractor in from across Metro Atlanta. When you call, you reach a master plumber who works Gwinnett County every day.
How fast can you respond to a plumbing emergency in Duluth?
We dispatch 24/7, and because Duluth is right next door to Lilburn we can usually get there quickly. Exact timing depends on current call volume, but burst pipes, active leaks, and sewage backups are always moved to the front of the line.
Who provides water and sewer in Duluth?
The Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources, which built much of the area's water and sewer mains back in the 1970s. The meter and the public mains are the county's — call them for billing or a street-side main issue. Everything on your side of the meter — leaks, water heaters, drains, and fixtures — is a licensed plumber's job.
Do you pull permits for plumbing work in Duluth?
Yes. Inside the city limits, plumbing permits go through the City of Duluth's planning and development office, now handled through its online portal, and the city requires one even to replace a water heater. We pull the permit and coordinate the inspection so your system stays code-compliant.
Do you work on Duluth's older homes with galvanized or polybutylene pipe?
Yes — it's routine here. Duluth spans a wide build range, from 1970s and '80s split-levels plumbed in galvanized steel to early-'90s homes with polybutylene supply lines. Galvanized corrodes and chokes pressure, polybutylene splits at the fittings; we diagnose what you have and repipe in PEX or copper.
Are you licensed and insured 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. Ask when you call 770-398-STAR and we'll provide proof of both before any work begins.
Do you install gas lines in Duluth, GA?
Yes. Gas work is our second specialty alongside plumbing. We run new gas lines for ranges, dryers, fireplaces, outdoor kitchens, and standby generators, and we handle gas leak detection and repair — all permitted and inspected to Georgia and City of Duluth code.
