When your plumbing works properly, you don’t think about it. You take hot showers without worry, flush toilets without hesitation, and trust that water flows where it should.
That’s exactly what you get with Murray Plumbing. No more wondering if that drip will turn into a flood. No more cold showers because your water heater decided to quit on a Sunday morning.
Your home runs smoothly. Your family stays comfortable. And you have one less thing to worry about because you know you’ve got a plumber who shows up on time, explains what’s wrong, and fixes it right the first time.
We’ve been serving Fruitridge Pocket and the greater Sacramento area since 2009. We understand the unique challenges that come with Sacramento’s mix of older homes, shifting soils, and tree-lined neighborhoods.
Whether it’s copper pipes under concrete slabs in older Fruitridge Pocket homes or modern plumbing systems in newer developments, we’ve seen it all. Our team knows how Sacramento’s moderate water hardness affects your water heater, why sewer lines back up during heavy rains, and which plumbing problems need immediate attention versus which ones can wait.
We’re not the biggest plumbing company in Sacramento, and we’re not trying to be. We’re focused on being the most reliable, honest, and skilled plumber you’ll find in Fruitridge Pocket.
First, you call us and we actually answer the phone. Not an answering service, not a bot. A real person who can often give you a ballpark idea of what you’re dealing with and when we can get there.
Next, we show up when we say we will. Our plumber arrives with the tools and parts needed for most common repairs, so there’s a good chance we can fix your problem the same day.
We’ll explain what’s wrong in plain English, show you exactly what needs to be done, and give you an upfront price before we start any work. No surprises, no hidden fees, no pressure to buy services you don’t need. Once you approve the work, we get started and clean up after ourselves when we’re done.

We handle the full range of plumbing services that Fruitridge Pocket homeowners need. We repair and replace water heaters, clear clogged drains and sewer lines, fix leaky faucets and running toilets, and handle everything from minor repairs to complete plumbing system maintenance.
Sacramento’s unique challenges mean we’re especially experienced with slab leak detection in older homes, water heater maintenance in areas with moderate water hardness, and sewer line issues common in neighborhoods with mature trees. We also provide plumbing inspections for home buyers and sellers, helping you understand exactly what you’re dealing with before problems become expensive emergencies.
Whether you need emergency service at 2 AM or want to schedule routine maintenance, we provide the same professional service and transparent pricing. Our goal is simple: solve your plumbing problem quickly and correctly so you can get back to your life.
We offer 24/7 emergency plumbing service throughout Fruitridge Pocket and the Sacramento area. Most emergency calls receive same-day service, often within a few hours of your call.
For true emergencies like burst pipes, sewer backups, or water heater failures, we prioritize these calls and typically arrive within 1-3 hours. We understand that plumbing emergencies don’t wait for business hours, which is why we maintain emergency availability every day of the year.
When you call, we’ll give you a realistic timeframe and keep you updated if anything changes. Our emergency service includes the same transparent pricing and professional service you’d get during regular business hours.
Fruitridge Pocket homes face several common plumbing challenges due to the area’s mix of older and newer construction. Slab leaks are frequent in older homes with copper pipes under concrete foundations, especially when Sacramento’s shifting soils cause foundation movement.
Water heater issues are also common due to Sacramento’s moderately hard water, which causes sediment buildup faster than in softer water areas. We regularly service water heaters that develop temperature fluctuations, rusty water, or unusual noises from mineral accumulation.
Sewer line problems occur frequently, particularly in neighborhoods with mature trees where root intrusion is common. Main line clogs, multiple drain backups, and gurgling sounds often indicate sewer issues that need professional attention before they become major problems.
We provide upfront, transparent pricing before starting any work. You’ll know exactly what the job will cost before we begin, with no hidden fees or surprise charges.
For most common repairs and installations, we can give you a firm price after diagnosing the problem. This protects you from unexpected costs and lets you make an informed decision about the work. If we discover additional issues during the repair, we’ll explain what we found and get your approval before proceeding.
Our pricing is fair and competitive for the Sacramento area. Many customers tell us our final bill was actually less than they expected, and we occasionally include small additional fixes at no charge when it makes sense.
If you suspect a slab leak, turn off all water fixtures and check your water meter. If the meter is still moving, you likely have a leak somewhere in your system. Call us immediately for professional leak detection.
Common signs of slab leaks include unexplained increases in water bills, warm spots on floors, the sound of running water when fixtures are off, or wet areas in your yard near the foundation. In Fruitridge Pocket’s older homes with copper pipes under concrete slabs, even small foundation shifts can cause pipe cracks.
Early detection is crucial because slab leaks can cause significant foundation damage if left untreated. We use professional leak detection equipment to pinpoint the exact location without unnecessary digging or demolition, then provide you with repair options that make sense for your home and budget.
We recommend annual plumbing inspections for most Fruitridge Pocket homes, with more frequent service for older properties or homes with previous plumbing issues. Regular maintenance helps catch small problems before they become expensive emergencies.
During a maintenance visit, we check for hidden leaks, inspect water heater performance, test water pressure, and evaluate drain flow throughout your home. In Sacramento’s climate with moderate water hardness, we also check for mineral buildup that can affect fixture performance and water heater efficiency.
For homes with older plumbing systems, mature trees nearby, or previous sewer issues, we might recommend more frequent inspections. The cost of preventive maintenance is always less than emergency repairs, and regular service helps extend the life of your plumbing system significantly.
Three things set us apart: honest communication, reliable service, and local expertise. We answer our own phone, show up when promised, and explain exactly what’s wrong and what it will cost before starting work.
We’ve been serving Fruitridge Pocket since 2009, so we understand the specific plumbing challenges in Sacramento neighborhoods. Whether it’s slab leaks in older homes, water heater issues from local water conditions, or sewer problems from mature tree roots, we’ve solved these problems hundreds of times.
Most importantly, we treat every customer fairly. No high-pressure sales, no inflated emergency pricing, no trying to sell you services you don’t need. We’re focused on building long-term relationships with our neighbors, not maximizing profit from one-time service calls.
