Plumbing in Lawrenceville

Lawrenceville is the county seat and the middle of our service area, so it is where we are most days. The housing runs from the older streets around the square, through the big subdivision waves of the 1980s and 1990s, to the newer neighbourhoods out toward Dacula and Grayson, and each of those ages has its own plumbing.

What we see in Lawrenceville houses

1980s and 1990s subdivisions. A large share of these were plumbed with polybutylene, the grey plastic supply pipe that was later pulled from the market because its fittings fail. If you have grey pipe at the water heater or under the sinks, a repipe is worth pricing before it picks the day to let go. Drain lines from this era are PVC and generally hold up well.

Older homes near downtown. Galvanized steel supply lines that have narrowed with rust, and cast iron drains that scale and crack along the bottom. Low pressure at the far fixtures and a drain that clogs every winter are the usual complaints.

Basements and walk-outs. Much of Lawrenceville sits on sloping lots with a basement on the low side, which is why sump pumps and basement bathroom ejectors are common calls here.

Water pressure. Homes on the lower ground of a pressure zone often see high static pressure. A failed pressure reducing valve is one of the most common things we find on a water heater or fixture call.

Permits and water service

Inside the city limits, plumbing permits go through the City of Lawrenceville; outside them, through Gwinnett County. Water and sewer for most of the area is Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources. We handle the permit and the inspection where a job needs one, and bill the fee at cost.

Questions we get from Lawrenceville homeowners

Do you cover all of Lawrenceville?

Yes, inside and outside the city limits, and out to Dacula, Grayson and Lilburn.

My house has grey plastic pipe. Is that a problem?

That is likely polybutylene. It does not fail on a schedule, but when it does it is usually at a fitting and usually while nobody is home. We can look at it and give you a written price for a repipe so you can plan it rather than react to it.

Can you get to Lawrenceville the same day?

It is the centre of our area, so often yes. Call or text and we will tell you honestly when we can be there.
