Common plumbing problems in Sandy Springs homes
Polybutylene supply lines beginning to leak
Gray polybutylene pipe went into many of Sandy Springs' 1980s homes and splits at the fittings. We identify it and repipe in PEX before it lets go in a wall.
A warm spot on the floor or a jump in the water bill
The signs of a slab leak under a slab-on-grade Sandy Springs ranch. We pinpoint it non-invasively before it undermines the foundation.
Pipes that bang, and fixtures that wear out fast
Sandy Springs' hilly terrain leaves many homes with high static water pressure. A properly set pressure-reducing valve protects the whole system.
Weak, rust-tinted water in an older home
Galvanized steel supply lines in 1960s–'70s houses corrode shut from the inside. A repipe in PEX or copper brings the flow back.
Recurring sewer backups near the river
Cast-iron laterals under the wooded lots toward the Chattahoochee crack and catch roots, and high groundwater makes it worse. We camera the line first, then fix what's failed.
Adding a gas range, dryer, or generator
A new gas line on the Atlanta Gas Light system, permitted through the City of Sandy Springs and inspected to code - our second specialty alongside plumbing.

About the area
Your Local Plumber in Sandy Springs, GA
A lot of Sandy Springs went up between the 1960s and the 1980s - split-levels and slab-on-grade ranches that today carry galvanized or polybutylene supply lines. Failing pipe, and the slab leaks that come with concrete-floor homes, are among the the jobs these ‘60s-to-’80s homes keep sending us.
Plenty of those homes are moving from electric to gas, so putting in a new line for a range, dryer, or generator on the Atlanta Gas Light system - permitted through the City of Sandy Springs - is steady work alongside the repairs.
Sandy Springs is one of the Fulton County communities we cover from our Lilburn shop by way of I-285 - far enough that we’ll quote a real arrival window, close enough that an active leak still gets same-day attention when the schedule allows.
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 Sandy Springs customers say
Frequently asked questions
Is Stars and Pipes Plumbing Atlanta based in Sandy Springs?
We're based in Lilburn (30047) and cover Sandy Springs and the rest of Fulton County across Metro Atlanta by way of I-285. You reach a licensed master plumber when you call rather than a call center, and we'll give you a real arrival window - Sandy Springs is a familiar run for us, not a stretch.
Do you fix or replace polybutylene piping in Sandy Springs?
Yes. Polybutylene supply pipe - usually gray - went into a lot of Sandy Springs homes built in the 1980s and tends to crack at its fittings, which is why it was taken off the market. We confirm what you have, and when it's failing we repipe the home in PEX so you stop chasing one fitting leak after another.
How do I know if I have a slab leak?
Common signs are a warm spot on the floor, an unexplained jump in your water bill, the sound of running water with everything off, or low pressure. Slab leaks are common in Sandy Springs' slab-on-grade ranches, where supply lines run under the concrete. We locate them non-invasively and reroute or repair the line before it damages the foundation.
My water pressure seems too high on my hill - is that a problem?
It can be. Sandy Springs' hilly terrain leaves many homes with high static pressure, which hammers fixtures, supply lines, and the water heater over time and can void appliance warranties. We test your pressure and install or rebuild a pressure-reducing valve set to a safe range so the whole house stops taking the strain.
Who handles water, sewer, and permits in Sandy Springs?
It's split: Fulton County Public Works serves much of Sandy Springs, while the City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management serves some areas near the Atlanta line. Plumbing permits are issued by the City of Sandy Springs, which has run its own building department since incorporating in 2005. Everything past your meter is a licensed plumber's job, and we pull permits where work requires them.
Do you install gas lines in Sandy Springs, GA?
Yes. Gas work is our second specialty. On the Atlanta Gas Light system we run new lines for ranges, dryers, fireplaces, and standby generators, permitted through the City of Sandy Springs, and we handle gas leak detection and repair - all inspected to Georgia code.
