Murray Plumbing brings over 24 years of professional plumbing experience to Clay, CA. We’re a family-owned business that understands what it means to serve this community.
Clay’s older homes present unique challenges. Tree roots growing into aging sewer lines. Mineral deposits from hard water clogging fixtures. Pipes that were installed decades ago finally giving out. We’ve seen it all, and we know exactly how to handle each situation.
Our team consists of licensed, bonded, and insured plumbers who live and work in the area. When you call us for emergency service, you’re not getting some random technician from three towns over. You’re getting local professionals who understand Clay’s specific plumbing challenges and care about getting your life back to normal.
First, you call our 24/7 emergency line and speak directly with someone who can help. No phone trees, no waiting on hold for twenty minutes. We answer, we listen, and we dispatch a licensed plumber to your location immediately.
Our plumber arrives with a fully stocked truck and diagnostic equipment. We assess the situation, explain what’s wrong in plain English, and give you an upfront price before we start any work. No surprises, no hidden fees, no “oh, by the way” charges after the job is done.
We get to work fixing the problem using professional-grade materials and proven techniques. Our goal is to solve your emergency completely, not just patch it up so it fails again next month. When we’re finished, we test everything to make sure it’s working properly and clean up after ourselves.

Murray Plumbing handles every type of plumbing emergency Clay homeowners face. Burst pipes that flood basements. Sewer backups that threaten your family’s health. Water heaters that fail without warning. Toilets that overflow and won’t stop.
Clay’s housing stock includes many homes built before modern plumbing codes. These older properties often have clay sewer pipes, galvanized steel water lines, and fixtures that weren’t designed to handle today’s usage patterns. We specialize in emergency repairs for these older systems while bringing them up to current standards.
Our emergency services include burst pipe repair, sewer line clearing, water heater restoration, gas line leak repair, and drain cleaning. We also handle the less obvious emergencies like sudden loss of water pressure, mysterious leaks inside walls, and sump pump failures that threaten your basement.
We typically arrive within 60 minutes of your call, often faster depending on your location in Clay and current traffic conditions. Our emergency plumbers are strategically positioned throughout the area to minimize response times.
Unlike some companies that make you wait hours or until the next business day, we understand that plumbing emergencies get worse by the minute. Water damage spreads. Sewage backups become health hazards. That’s why we prioritize rapid response and have emergency teams on standby 24/7.
When you call, we immediately dispatch the nearest available plumber to your location. We also call you back to confirm our estimated arrival time and provide any emergency guidance you might need while you wait.
First, locate and shut off your main water supply if you’re dealing with a major leak or burst pipe. This valve is usually located near where the water line enters your house, often by the street or in your basement.
If it’s a toilet overflow, turn off the water supply valve behind the toilet. For sink or fixture leaks, turn off the valves under the fixture. Remove any standing water you can safely clean up, and move furniture or belongings away from the affected area.
Don’t try to fix the problem yourself with temporary patches or chemical drain cleaners. These often make the situation worse and can create safety hazards. Take photos of the damage for insurance purposes, but prioritize your safety above all else.
We provide transparent, upfront pricing for all emergency services, including after-hours calls. Any additional charges for nights, weekends, or holidays are clearly explained when you schedule your service, so you know exactly what to expect.
Many Clay homeowners are surprised to learn that our emergency rates are often competitive with other companies’ regular business-hour prices. We believe in fair pricing, especially during stressful emergency situations when you need help most.
We never hit you with surprise charges or “trip fees” that weren’t disclosed upfront. The price we quote is the price you pay, period. We also offer financing options for larger emergency repairs that might strain your budget.
Absolutely. Clay’s older homes present unique challenges that we deal with regularly. Many properties built before the 1970s have clay sewer pipes, galvanized steel water lines, and fixtures that require specialized knowledge to repair properly.
We carry parts and materials specifically for older plumbing systems. Our plumbers understand how these systems work, where they typically fail, and how to repair them without disrupting your entire house. We also know local building codes and can bring older systems up to current standards when necessary.
Whether you’re dealing with root-damaged clay sewer lines, corroded galvanized pipes, or vintage fixtures that no longer make parts for, we have the experience and resources to handle your emergency properly.
We handle every type of plumbing emergency that can affect Clay homes and businesses. Burst pipes, sewer backups, overflowing toilets, failed water heaters, gas line leaks, and major drain clogs are our most common emergency calls.
We also respond to situations like complete loss of water pressure, mysterious leaks inside walls or ceilings, sump pump failures, and frozen pipes that threaten to burst. If water or sewage is where it shouldn’t be, or if you’ve lost essential plumbing services, we consider it an emergency.
Our emergency plumbers arrive with diagnostic equipment to quickly identify problems that aren’t immediately obvious. We can locate hidden leaks, clear stubborn blockages, and repair complex issues that might stump other companies.
Yes, every Murray Plumbing technician is fully licensed, bonded, and insured. We maintain all required California state licenses and local permits, and our insurance coverage protects both our workers and your property during emergency repairs.
You can verify our credentials anytime, and we’re happy to provide proof of insurance before starting any work. This protects you from liability if something goes wrong and ensures that repairs are performed to professional standards.
We also guarantee our emergency work. If something we repair fails within our warranty period, we’ll return and fix it at no additional charge. That’s our commitment to quality workmanship, even under emergency conditions.
