We’ve been serving Little Pocket families for years, earning a 4.7-star Google rating from 93 satisfied customers. We understand the unique challenges of this area’s midcentury homes built in the 1950s through 1970s. Many of Little Pocket’s ranch-style homes still have their original galvanized pipes, which were standard construction back then but have now reached the end of their 40-70 year lifespan. Sacramento’s clay-heavy soil and mineral-rich water create additional stress on aging pipe systems. We’ve helped countless neighbors transition from problematic old pipes to reliable modern systems. Our team knows how to work efficiently in these established homes while respecting your property and minimizing disruption to your daily routine.

What's Included in Your Repiping Project

Your complete repiping includes removal of all old pipes, installation of new materials throughout your home, and connection to every fixture. We handle permits, inspections, and coordinate with local authorities so you don’t have to. In Little Pocket specifically, we often encounter homes with original galvanized steel pipes from the 1950s-70s construction boom. These pipes are particularly susceptible to Sacramento’s soil conditions and water chemistry, leading to faster deterioration than in other areas. We offer both copper and PEX options, with most Little Pocket homeowners choosing PEX for its flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and ability to handle ground movement from the area’s clay soil. Your project includes wall patching, paint touch-ups, and thorough cleanup—we leave your home exactly as we found it, just with completely reliable plumbing.

How long does repiping a Little Pocket home typically take?

Most Little Pocket homes can be completely repiped in 1-2 days, depending on the size and complexity of your plumbing system. We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine. The process starts early in the morning with our team protecting your home and furniture. We typically complete the actual pipe installation on day one, then return the following day for wall repairs and final testing. Throughout the project, we maintain temporary water service so you’re never completely without water for extended periods. For larger homes with multiple bathrooms or complex layouts, the project might extend to 3 days, but we’ll give you an exact timeline during our initial consultation so you can plan accordingly.

Should I choose copper or PEX pipes for my Little Pocket home?

For Little Pocket homes, PEX is often the better choice due to our area’s specific conditions. Sacramento’s clay-heavy soil causes ground movement that can stress rigid copper pipes over time, while PEX’s flexibility handles this movement better. PEX also costs significantly less than copper—typically 40-50% savings for the same square footage. Installation is faster because PEX can be snaked through walls without as much cutting, and it’s less likely to freeze during Sacramento’s occasional cold snaps. However, copper does last longer (up to 70 years versus PEX’s 25-50 years) and some homeowners prefer it for resale value. We’ll assess your specific situation, budget, and long-term plans to recommend the best option for your home.

What are the signs that my Little Pocket home needs repiping?

The most obvious signs include rust-colored or discolored water, which indicates your pipes are corroding from the inside. You might notice brown stains around sink drains or a metallic taste in your drinking water. Declining water pressure throughout your home suggests internal pipe buildup from corrosion. If you have uneven pressure—strong in some areas but weak in others—that’s typically galvanized pipe deterioration at specific points in your system. Frequent leaks, visible corrosion on exposed pipes, or strange smells from your water are all red flags. If your Little Pocket home was built in the 1950s-70s and still has original plumbing, you’re likely approaching the end of your pipes’ functional lifespan regardless of current symptoms.

How much does repiping cost in the Little Pocket area?

Repiping costs in the Sacramento area typically range from $5,000 to $30,000, depending on your home’s size, pipe material choice, and complexity of the installation. Little Pocket’s ranch-style homes often fall in the middle of this range. PEX installations generally cost 40-50% less than copper for the same home. Factors affecting your specific cost include the number of bathrooms, accessibility of existing pipes, and whether we need extensive wall repairs. We provide transparent, upfront pricing with no hidden fees for permits, patching, or our lifetime guarantee. Many customers are pleasantly surprised when their final cost comes in under our initial estimate. We also offer financing options to make this important investment more manageable for your budget.

Will repiping disrupt my family's daily routine significantly?

We work hard to minimize disruption to your Little Pocket household. Most of our work happens during daytime hours, so your evening routines like showers and dinner preparation aren’t heavily affected. We maintain temporary water service throughout the project, so you’re never completely without water. When we do need to shut off water for connections, it’s typically for just a few hours at a time, and we coordinate these shutoffs with your schedule. Our team protects your furniture and flooring with drop cloths, and we clean up thoroughly each day. We understand that your home is your sanctuary, especially in a quiet neighborhood like Little Pocket, so we work respectfully and efficiently to get your life back to normal as quickly as possible.

Does Murray Plumbing handle permits and inspections for repiping projects?

Yes, we handle all permits and inspections required by Sacramento County for your repiping project. This includes obtaining the proper permits before work begins and coordinating with local inspectors for required safety checks. Sacramento County requires permits for whole-house repiping, and compliance with California Plumbing Code is mandatory. We’re familiar with all local requirements and have established relationships with inspectors, which helps keep your project on schedule. Not handling permits properly can result in fines, delays, or problems when you sell your home. By managing this entire process for you, we ensure everything is done correctly and documented properly, giving you peace of mind and protecting your investment.
