You’re tired of weak showers, discolored water, and the constant worry about when your pipes will fail next. Professional repiping gives you what you actually want: consistent water pressure that makes your shower enjoyable again, clean water that doesn’t taste metallic, and the peace of mind that comes from knowing your plumbing won’t flood your home.
Modern pipe materials last 50+ years, which means you’re done with emergency repairs and surprise plumbing bills. Your water pressure improves immediately, your utility bills drop because you’re not paying for water that leaks into your walls, and you can finally stop wondering if today’s the day your pipes give out.
We’ve been serving Cameron Park and El Dorado County for over 24 years, and we understand the specific challenges local homeowners face. Many Cameron Park homes built between 1995-2007 have Kitec plumbing systems that are now failing, while older homes deal with corroded galvanized pipes.
We’ve repiped hundreds of homes in your area, from the original developments near Cameron Park Lake to the newer subdivisions off Highway 50. Our team knows the local building codes, understands the unique soil conditions that affect underground pipes, and has worked with every type of plumbing system common in El Dorado County.
When you call Murray Plumbing, you’re working with contractors who live and work in your community, not a franchise from Sacramento.
We start with a thorough inspection of your current plumbing system to identify problem areas and determine the best approach for your home. You’ll get a detailed estimate that breaks down materials, labor, and timeline so there are no surprises.
During installation, we work in sections to minimize disruption. Water stays on overnight so you can shower and use your kitchen. We typically complete most Cameron Park homes in 2-3 days, depending on size and complexity. Our crew protects your floors and furniture, and we clean up completely each day.
Once your new pipes are installed and tested, we handle all final inspections and provide you with documentation for your records. You’ll have reliable water pressure and clean water immediately, plus the peace of mind that comes with modern, warrantied plumbing.

We install both copper and PEX piping systems, and your choice depends on your budget, home layout, and long-term goals. Copper pipes offer proven durability and can last 50+ years, making them ideal for homeowners planning to stay long-term. They handle high temperatures well and maintain consistent water pressure throughout your home.
PEX piping costs less upfront and installs faster, which reduces labor costs. It’s flexible, freeze-resistant, and perfect for Cameron Park’s varied terrain. PEX also resists mineral buildup that can affect water flow over time.
Many Cameron Park homeowners dealing with failed Kitec systems choose PEX for its reliability and cost-effectiveness. Both materials meet California building codes and come with manufacturer warranties. We’ll help you choose based on your specific situation, not what makes us more money.
Repiping costs in Cameron Park typically range from $6,000 to $15,000 for most homes, depending on size, pipe material, and complexity. Single-story homes with 2-3 bathrooms usually fall on the lower end, while multi-story homes or those with difficult pipe access cost more.
PEX piping systems cost less than copper due to faster installation and lower material costs. However, the biggest factor is your home’s layout and how accessible your current pipes are. Pipes under concrete slabs or in tight crawl spaces require more labor time.
We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying for before work begins.
Most Cameron Park homes take 2-4 days to repipe completely. Single-story homes with straightforward layouts often finish in 2 days, while larger or multi-story homes may take 3-4 days.
We work in sections so you’re not without water for extended periods. Water typically gets shut off during working hours but restored each evening so you can shower, cook, and use your bathroom normally. You can stay in your home throughout the entire process.
Weather, permit inspections, and unexpected discoveries can affect timing, but we’ll keep you informed of any changes to the schedule. Most homeowners are surprised how quickly the process goes and how little it disrupts their daily routine.
Both copper and PEX are excellent choices for Cameron Park homes, and your decision should be based on your budget and long-term plans. Copper pipes last 50+ years and handle high water pressure exceptionally well, making them ideal if you’re planning to stay in your home long-term.
PEX piping costs 30-40% less than copper and installs faster, which reduces your overall project cost. It’s flexible, freeze-resistant, and performs well in Cameron Park’s climate. PEX also resists the mineral buildup that can affect water flow over time.
If you’re dealing with failed Kitec pipes, PEX is often the most cost-effective replacement that still provides decades of reliable service. We’ll evaluate your specific situation and help you choose based on your needs and budget.
Yes, repiping typically provides immediate and dramatic water pressure improvement. Old galvanized pipes develop rust and mineral buildup inside that restricts water flow, while failing Kitec systems often have partial blockages that reduce pressure.
New pipes have smooth interior surfaces that allow water to flow freely throughout your home. Most Cameron Park homeowners notice the difference immediately when they turn on their shower or kitchen faucet after repiping is complete.
However, if your low water pressure is caused by issues with the main water line from the street or your pressure reducing valve, repiping alone won’t solve the problem. We’ll identify the root cause during our initial inspection so you know exactly what to expect.
Several signs indicate your Cameron Park home may need repiping: consistently low water pressure, discolored or metallic-tasting water, visible rust or corrosion on exposed pipes, and frequent plumbing repairs. If your home was built between 1995-2007, you may have Kitec pipes that are prone to failure.
Homes built before 1980 often have galvanized steel pipes that corrode from the inside out, gradually restricting water flow and affecting water quality. You might also notice damp spots on walls or ceilings, higher water bills from hidden leaks, or banging noises when you turn off faucets.
Age alone isn’t always the determining factor, but if your pipes are over 40 years old and you’re experiencing multiple issues, repiping is usually more cost-effective than ongoing repairs. We can assess your system and help you make an informed decision.
Absolutely. Most Cameron Park homeowners stay in their homes throughout the entire repiping process. We work in sections and restore water service each evening so you can shower, cook, and use your bathrooms normally.
During working hours, water is typically shut off to the areas we’re working on, but we coordinate with you to minimize inconvenience. We can often leave kitchen or bathroom water running while working on other parts of the house.
Our crew protects your floors and furniture, cleans up completely each day, and works efficiently to minimize disruption to your routine. The biggest inconvenience is usually the noise from cutting and installing pipes, but most homeowners find it much less disruptive than they expected.
