Installations

New Construction, Additions & Remodels Done Right the First Time

Building a new home, adding a bathroom, or remodeling your kitchen in the La Vergne or Nashville area? Every one of these projects requires plumbing work that meets Tennessee code. New supply lines, drain routing, fixture placement, vent stacks, and connections to the main system all need to be done correctly the first time.

Gold Star Plumbing handles the plumbing side of new construction, additions, and remodels throughout Middle Tennessee. We coordinate with your general contractor, ensure all necessary permits are handled as required by Tennessee code, and install everything so the project stays on schedule.

Moving a sink or toilet even a few feet means rerouting supply and drain lines. What looks like a simple remodel can turn into a full plumbing project. Our team makes sure the rough-in work is done right so your finished kitchen or bathroom works the way it should for years.

Bathroom & Kitchen Additions

Remodels & Fixture Moves

Repairs

We Find the Actual Cause. Then We Fix It.

We don’t guess. We diagnose, explain, and fix. Every repair is tested before we leave your home.

Low Water Pressure

That weak shower pressure is often a corroded pipe, failing pressure regulator, or sediment buildup. We find the cause — not just the symptom.

Running Toilet

A constantly running toilet adds real dollars to your water bill every week. Worn flappers and faulty fill valves are common culprits we replace quickly.

Persistent Drips & Leaks

Leaks behind walls, under floors, or at hard-to-reach connections. We locate them, cut out the bad section, and replace with new material.

What Our Repair Service Covers

Routine Maintenance

The Problem You Don't See Is the One That Costs Most

Plumbing problems rarely announce themselves in advance. A slow drain gets a little slower each month. A water heater loses efficiency so gradually you don’t notice until the energy bill spikes. A small leak behind a wall can rot a subfloor for months before any sign appears on the surface.

Annual plumbing inspections catch these problems early. Our technicians check visible pipes and joints for leaks, test water pressure, inspect your water heater, verify drain flow, and test supply valve operation at your La Vergne, Nashville, or Middle Tennessee home.

Annual Inspection Includes

Visible pipe & joint leak check

All accessible supply and drain connections inspected for moisture, corrosion, or slow seepage.

Water pressure test

Measured against Tennessee residential code range (40–80 PSI). High or low pressure flagged.

Water heater inspection

Age, condition, anode rod, T&P valve, sediment level, and signs of internal corrosion assessed.

Drain flow verification

All fixture drains tested for flow rate. Slow drains identified before they back up completely.

Supply valve operation test

Every shut-off valve operated to confirm it seals fully. Stuck valves are a hidden emergency risk.

Fixture Replacement

Know When to Replace, Not Just Repair

Every fixture has an expected lifespan. When internal parts have been replaced more than once or the fixture is leaking despite multiple repairs, full replacement is usually more cost-effective.

15-20yrs

Toilets (unit)

Internals: flappers, fill & flush valves wear every 5–7 yrs

Error codes, ignition failures, and mineral buildup on tankless units diagnosed and repaired.

Know the Difference

When to Call a Licensed Plumber

Some plumbing tasks are fine for a homeowner. Others require licensing, insurance, and code compliance. Here’s the line.

Homeowner / Handyman Can Handle

Requires a Licensed Plumber

Why it matters: A licensed plumber is trained, tested, and insured to work on your water supply and drainage systems to code. Work done without proper licensing can void warranties, cause water damage, and create code violations that surface when you try to sell your home.

Common Plumbing Issues in La Vergne & Nashville Homes

Older homes in the La Vergne and Nashville area may have galvanized pipes that have corroded from the inside, outdated fixtures that no longer seal properly, or original water heaters that are well past their expected lifespan. These issues often start small and worsen over time.

Newer homes aren’t immune either. Builder-grade fixtures can wear out faster than higher-quality alternatives. Settling foundations can stress pipe connections. Hard water — common in parts of Middle Tennessee — accelerates mineral buildup in pipes, fixtures, and water heaters. 

Corroded galvanized pipes

Common in Nashville homes built before 1980. Restricts flow and discolors water.

Hard water mineral buildup

Parts of Middle Tennessee have elevated hardness. Clogs fixtures and shortens water heater life.

Builder-grade fixture failures

Newer La Vergne and Spring Hill homes with original fixtures often see early wear.

Aging original water heaters

Many area homes still running on original 15–20 year old tank units well past their lifespan.

Whether your home is five years old or fifty, an annual plumbing inspection helps identify problems before they become expensive repairs. Call (615) 290-9860 to schedule.

"Rocky reached out to me by phone shortly after I submitted a request for a quote. Someone from his team fixed the issue that same day. I also used Goldstar Plumbing a few months ago to replace a few faucets — had a similar experience where Rocky reached out by phone and had his team come out and replace both faucets that same day."

FAQs

Common Questions

How often should I replace my faucets?
Faucets typically last 15–20 years. If yours is leaking despite repairs or if the finish is corroding, replacement is usually more cost-effective than continued patching.
Yes, if you’re moving a sink, toilet, or shower even a few feet. Rerouting supply and drain lines requires a licensed plumber to meet Tennessee code. We handle the plumbing side of remodels across Middle Tennessee.
If tightening a connection doesn’t stop it, if the leak is behind a wall or under a floor, if water is staining your ceiling, or if you hear running water with nothing turned on, call a professional.
Licensed plumbers carry state certification, insurance, and training to meet Tennessee plumbing code on every job. Handymen can handle simple fixture swaps but are not qualified for pipe work, water heater connections, or any repair that requires a permit.
An annual inspection helps catch small issues before they become expensive repairs. This is included in our maintenance plans for Middle Tennessee homeowners.
Usually it’s a worn flapper valve or a faulty fill valve — both are internal parts that wear out every 5–7 years. Our La Vergne team can replace them quickly.
Simple fixes like replacing a showerhead or tightening a faucet handle are fine for most homeowners. Anything involving pipes, water heaters, gas lines, or work behind walls should be handled by a licensed plumber to avoid water damage and code violations.
