Murray Plumbing handles the full spectrum of plumbing repairs common to South Sacramento homes. From corroded pipes in older neighborhoods to modern fixture installations, we’ve seen it all.
Our services include emergency leak repairs, drain cleaning, water heater replacement, sewer line repair, and fixture installations. We’re particularly experienced with the challenges facing Sacramento’s aging housing stock—homes built before modern plumbing standards that need careful updates and repairs.
Sacramento’s Mediterranean climate and clay soil create specific plumbing challenges. Summer heat expands pipes while winter cooling contracts them, creating stress points. The area’s hard water accelerates mineral buildup in fixtures and appliances. Murray Plumbing’s local experience means we anticipate these issues and recommend preventive solutions that save you money long-term.
Murray Plumbing provides 24/7 emergency service throughout South Sacramento with typical response times of 30-60 minutes for urgent situations like burst pipes or sewage backups. We understand that plumbing emergencies can’t wait, especially when water damage is spreading through your home.
Our emergency technicians carry fully-stocked trucks with common repair parts and diagnostic equipment. This means we can often complete repairs on the first visit rather than scheduling return trips. For non-emergency repairs, we offer same-day service and flexible scheduling to work around your schedule.
South Sacramento presents unique plumbing challenges due to the area’s expansive clay soil and aging infrastructure. Clay soil expands and contracts with moisture changes, putting stress on underground pipes and causing shifts that can break connections or crack lines.
Many homes in South Sacramento were built decades ago with materials like galvanized steel or clay sewer lines that are now reaching the end of their useful life. The region’s hard water also accelerates mineral buildup in pipes and fixtures, reducing water pressure and causing premature failure of appliances like water heaters.
Murray Plumbing’s 24+ years of local experience means we understand these specific challenges and can recommend solutions that address Sacramento’s unique conditions rather than applying generic fixes.

Our technicians use advanced diagnostic tools, including sewer cameras, to accurately assess problems and provide precise estimates. We explain what needs to be done, why it’s necessary, and what it will cost. Many customers have noted that their final bills were actually less than the original estimates.
As a family-owned business with low overhead, we can keep our prices competitive while maintaining high-quality workmanship. We also offer a 15% discount for new customers and free estimates on larger projects.
The most common plumbing repairs in Sacramento involve issues related to aging infrastructure and local environmental factors. Sewer line problems are frequent, especially in older neighborhoods with clay pipes that have cracked or been invaded by tree roots.
Water heater repairs and replacements are also common due to Sacramento’s hard water, which accelerates mineral buildup and shortens appliance life. Drain clogs from hair, grease, and mineral deposits require professional cleaning, often with hydrojetting equipment.
Leak repairs range from simple faucet fixes to major pipe replacements in homes with corroded galvanized steel or copper lines. Murray Plumbing handles all these repairs with modern techniques and quality materials designed to last in Sacramento’s specific conditions.
Yes, Murray Plumbing is fully licensed, bonded, and insured for all plumbing work in Sacramento and throughout California. We maintain all required contractor licenses and carry comprehensive liability insurance to protect both our technicians and your property.
Our licensing ensures we’re up-to-date on current building codes and safety regulations specific to Sacramento County. This is particularly important for older homes that may need to be brought up to current standards during repairs or renovations.
We’re also BBB accredited and maintain a 5-star reputation across multiple review platforms. Our insurance coverage means you’re protected if anything unexpected happens during the repair process, giving you peace of mind along with professional service.
If you’re facing a plumbing emergency, first locate your main water shutoff valve and turn off the water supply to prevent further damage. This valve is typically located near your water meter or where the main line enters your home.
For burst pipes, turn off electricity to affected areas if water is near electrical outlets or fixtures. Move furniture and belongings away from the leak if possible, and place buckets or towels to contain water damage.
For sewage backups, avoid using any plumbing fixtures and keep family members and pets away from contaminated areas. Don’t attempt to clear severe blockages yourself, as this can worsen the problem or cause dangerous backups. Murray Plumbing’s emergency technicians will guide you through immediate safety steps when you call and arrive quickly to handle the repair professionally.
