Hear from Our Customers
When your pipes burst at 2 AM or your main line backs up on Sunday, you need more than someone who shows up eventually. You need a plumber who understands that your time matters and your problem can’t wait.
That’s exactly what you get with Murray Plumbing. We respond fast because we know plumbing emergencies don’t follow business hours. Our technicians arrive with the right tools, diagnose the real problem, and fix it properly the first time.
You’ll know upfront what the repair will cost—no hidden fees, no surprise charges after the work is done. Just honest pricing for quality work that actually solves your plumbing issues for good.
At Murray Plumbing, we understand what Galt homeowners face. The dry summer heat here causes soil to contract, leading to cracked and ruptured pipes that other areas don’t deal with. We’ve seen it all and know exactly how to handle these local challenges.
Our team has built a solid reputation in the community with a 4.7-star Google rating based on real customer experiences. We’re not the biggest plumbing company around, but we’re the one that shows up when we say we will and charges what we quote.
Being locally owned means we keep our overhead low and pass those savings on to you. No corporate markups, no franchise fees—just fair pricing for professional plumbing repair that gets the job done right.
When you call Murray Plumbing, you’ll speak with someone who actually knows plumbing, not a call center. We’ll ask the right questions to understand your situation and give you a realistic timeframe for service.
Our technician arrives with a fully stocked truck containing the most common repair parts. We diagnose the problem thoroughly—not just the symptom you’re seeing, but the actual cause. Before any work begins, you’ll get a clear explanation of what needs to be done and exactly what it will cost.
Most repairs are completed on the same visit. For the rare cases where we need a specialized part, we’ll provide a temporary solution to prevent damage and return quickly with the right materials. You’ll know your problem is solved when we leave, not wondering if it’ll happen again next week.

Murray Plumbing handles everything from simple faucet repairs to complex sewer line issues. Our service includes leak detection using advanced equipment, drain cleaning that actually clears the blockage, water heater repair and replacement, and emergency plumbing services available 24/7.
Galt’s unique soil conditions mean we see more pipe stress and foundation-related plumbing issues than other areas. We’ve developed specific techniques for dealing with these challenges, from pipe rerouting to prevent future soil damage to specialized repair methods that last in our climate.
Every service call includes a thorough assessment of your plumbing system. We’ll spot potential problems before they become emergencies and give you honest advice about what needs immediate attention versus what can wait. Our goal is to keep your plumbing working reliably, not to sell you services you don’t need.
Plumbing repair costs in Galt typically range from $95 to $316 for most common issues, depending on the complexity of the problem and materials needed. Simple repairs like fixing a leaky faucet or unclogging a drain fall on the lower end, while more complex issues like pipe replacement or water heater problems cost more.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what to expect. Unlike some companies that charge diagnostic fees, we include our assessment in the repair cost when you move forward with the work. Emergency services after hours or on weekends do carry a premium, but we’ll always tell you the exact cost before dispatching a technician.
The final price depends on factors like the location of the problem, accessibility of pipes, and quality of materials used. We focus on providing lasting solutions rather than quick fixes, which often saves you money in the long run by preventing repeat issues.
Yes, Murray Plumbing offers 24/7 emergency plumbing services throughout Galt. We understand that plumbing emergencies don’t wait for convenient times—burst pipes, sewer backups, and water heater failures often happen at the worst possible moments.
When you call our emergency line, you’ll reach someone who can actually help, not an answering service. We’ll assess your situation over the phone and dispatch a fully equipped technician as quickly as possible. Our emergency response trucks carry the most commonly needed parts, allowing us to complete about 80% of emergency repairs on the first visit.
Emergency rates are higher than regular service calls to account for after-hours availability and the urgency of the situation. However, we’re transparent about emergency pricing and will give you the exact cost before our technician heads to your location. Our goal is to stop the immediate problem and prevent property damage, then work with you on any follow-up repairs needed.
Galt homeowners frequently deal with pipe issues related to our local soil conditions. The dry summer heat causes soil to contract, putting stress on underground pipes and leading to cracks or ruptures. This is especially common in older homes with original plumbing systems.
Clogged drains are another frequent issue, often caused by hair, soap buildup, grease, and occasionally tree roots infiltrating sewer lines. The mineral content in our local water supply can also contribute to fixture problems and reduced water pressure over time.
Water heater problems are common due to the mineral buildup from hard water, which can cause sediment accumulation and reduce efficiency. We also see issues with leaky faucets and running toilets, often related to worn seals and components that deteriorate faster in our climate. Regular maintenance can prevent many of these issues, but when problems do occur, addressing them quickly prevents more expensive damage.
For non-emergency repairs, we typically schedule service within 24-48 hours, often offering same-day appointments when our schedule allows. We understand that plumbing problems are disruptive to your daily routine, so we work to accommodate your schedule whenever possible.
Emergency calls receive immediate attention. Our goal is to have a technician at your location within 2 hours for true emergencies like burst pipes, major leaks, or complete loss of water service. We maintain service trucks throughout the area and keep them stocked with common repair parts to minimize response times.
When you call, we’ll give you a realistic timeframe based on our current schedule and the nature of your problem. We don’t overbook appointments or promise unrealistic response times. If we say we’ll be there at 2 PM, we’ll be there at 2 PM, ready to work and solve your plumbing problem efficiently.

Yes, we provide free estimates for most plumbing repair projects. For standard repairs and installations, we’ll assess your situation and provide a detailed written estimate at no charge. This estimate includes labor, materials, and any additional costs, so you have a complete picture before making a decision.
For diagnostic work where the problem isn’t immediately obvious, we may need to perform some investigation to determine the exact cause and solution. In these cases, we’ll explain what diagnostic work is needed and the associated cost upfront. If you proceed with the recommended repair, we typically apply the diagnostic fee toward the total cost.
Our estimates are detailed and transparent, breaking down exactly what work will be performed and what materials will be used. We believe you should understand exactly what you’re paying for before any work begins. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges—the estimate price is what you’ll pay unless you approve additional work that wasn’t part of the original scope.
