Luma House works with homeowners in Norcross, Gwinnett County, Georgia. Norcross is close enough to Duluth that we work there regularly. This page sets out what we do there, what the local housing stock usually needs, and which office reviews your permit — because that last point catches more Norcross homeowners out than any other.
What we build in Norcross

- Bathroom remodeling — curbless showers, double vanities, waterproofing and ventilation
- Whole-home remodeling — one plan, one written scope, one schedule

- Interior remodeling — flooring, millwork, staircases, trim and lighting

The housing stock in Norcross
The widest range in the area, from historic houses near downtown Norcross to 1980s and 1990s subdivisions further out, so scope varies more here than anywhere nearby.
That matters because it predicts what is behind the drywall. In houses of this period we routinely find electrical circuits adequate for their decade but not for a modern kitchen, HVAC zoning that was never balanced, and framing out of level enough to matter once cabinetry and tile go in. None of that is unusual, and none of it should be a surprise on the invoice — it belongs in the estimate, which is why we survey before we price.
Who issues your permit
The City of Norcross permits work inside its limits, and a historic district applies to part of the city, which adds review for exterior changes.
| If your home is in… | Permits usually come from | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Inside Duluth city limits | City of Duluth Community Development & Engineering | The city runs its own permits, applications and inspections |
| Unincorporated Gwinnett County | Gwinnett County | Many addresses with a Duluth mailing address sit outside city limits |
| Johns Creek, Suwanee, Berkeley Lake, Norcross or Peachtree Corners | That city’s own permit office | Each city sets its own submittal steps |
Always confirm the permitting office for your exact address; city limits do not follow ZIP codes.
We confirm the reviewing office for your exact address during design, before anything is submitted. City limits do not follow ZIP codes, and a mailing address is not evidence of jurisdiction.
