Murray Plumbing handles everything from emergency repairs to routine plumbing maintenance and new installations. Whether you’re dealing with a backed-up sewer line, a failing water heater, or mysterious leaks that are driving up your water bill, we have the experience to diagnose and fix it.
For Rancho Cordova homeowners, we’re particularly skilled at addressing the challenges that come with the area’s diverse housing stock. Newer homes in developments like Anatolia and Sunridge Park typically need different approaches than older properties near the American River Parkway.
We specialize in comprehensive plumbing inspections, water heater repairs and replacements, drain cleaning, leak detection, and sewer line issues. Our plumbing system maintenance helps identify potential problems before they become expensive emergencies.
Because Rancho Cordova’s mineral-heavy water can cause buildup and other issues, we also provide solutions like specialized anode rod replacements that eliminate unpleasant odors and extend your water heater’s life. It’s this kind of local expertise that makes the difference between a quick fix and a lasting solution.
We offer 24/7 emergency service throughout Rancho Cordova, and response times typically range from 1-2 hours depending on your location and the time of day. We understand that plumbing emergencies like burst pipes, sewer backups, and water heater failures can’t wait for regular business hours.
When you call, you’ll speak with someone who can give you a realistic arrival time rather than a vague estimate. We prioritize true emergencies that threaten property damage or leave you without water, and we come prepared with the most commonly needed parts and tools to resolve issues on the first visit.
Our emergency service covers all areas of Rancho Cordova, from the newer developments near Highway 50 to the established neighborhoods closer to the American River. Having local knowledge means we can navigate the area efficiently and understand the specific plumbing challenges common to different parts of the city.
Transparent pricing means you know exactly what you’ll pay before any work begins, with no hidden fees, diagnostic charges, or surprise additions to your bill. We provide upfront quotes after assessing your specific situation, and many customers find their final cost is actually less than the original estimate.
Repair costs vary depending on the complexity of the problem, but common services include drain cleaning starting around $150-300, faucet repairs from $100-250, and water heater repairs typically ranging from $200-600. More complex issues like sewer line repairs or whole-house repiping require individual assessment.
What sets our pricing apart is the absence of inflated “emergency fees” or charges for coming out to provide an estimate. We believe you shouldn’t be penalized for having a plumbing problem, and our goal is to provide fair, competitive pricing that reflects the actual work needed to solve your issue permanently.
Yes, we provide both emergency repair services and scheduled plumbing maintenance for Rancho Cordova homeowners. While we’re always ready to respond to urgent situations like burst pipes or sewer backups, we also believe in preventive maintenance that can help you avoid many emergency situations altogether.
Our maintenance services include comprehensive plumbing inspections that identify potential problems before they become expensive repairs, water heater maintenance to extend equipment life, and drain cleaning to prevent clogs and backups. Regular plumbing system maintenance is especially important for older Rancho Cordova homes where aging pipes and fixtures may be approaching the end of their useful life.
We can work with you to develop a maintenance schedule that makes sense for your home’s age, plumbing system, and usage patterns. Many customers find that investing in routine maintenance saves them significant money and stress by catching issues early when they’re still manageable and less expensive to address.
Yes, we are fully licensed and insured to perform plumbing work throughout Rancho Cordova and Sacramento County. All our technicians carry the appropriate California contractor licenses and maintain current insurance coverage that protects both your property and our workers.
We also ensure every technician is background-checked before entering customers’ homes. This is particularly important for emergency calls when you might not have time to research the person coming to your house, and it’s part of our commitment to providing service you can trust.
Being properly licensed means we’re up to date on local building codes and permit requirements, which is crucial for more complex work like water heater installations, gas line repairs, or major plumbing system modifications. We handle all necessary permits and inspections to ensure work meets Rancho Cordova and Sacramento County standards.
Rancho Cordova’s diverse housing stock creates some unique plumbing challenges. Older homes, particularly those built before 1970, often have galvanized steel or early plastic pipes that are prone to failure and may need replacement. These materials were common in the area’s earlier development but don’t hold up well over time.
Newer developments sometimes experience different issues, including problems with builder-grade fixtures that need upgrading, irrigation system failures due to clay soil conditions, and water heater issues related to the area’s mineral-heavy water supply. Hard water is particularly common and can cause premature wear on fixtures and appliances.
Sewer line problems are also frequent, especially in areas with mature trees where root intrusion can damage underground pipes. The combination of older sewer systems and Sacramento’s tree-lined neighborhoods creates ongoing maintenance needs that require experienced local plumbers who understand these specific challenges and have the right equipment to address them effectively.
We provide clear, upfront estimates after evaluating your specific plumbing issue, with no hidden fees or surprise charges added later. Our service calls include a thorough diagnosis of the problem, explanation of what needs to be done, and a firm price quote before any repair work begins.
Unlike some companies that charge separate diagnostic fees, trip charges, or inflated “emergency” rates, we believe in straightforward pricing that reflects the actual work required. Many customers are pleasantly surprised to find their final bill is less than the original estimate, especially when repairs turn out to be simpler than initially expected.
Each service call includes cleanup of the work area and a clear explanation of what was done and why. We’ll also provide recommendations for preventing similar problems in the future and let you know if we noticed any other potential issues that might need attention down the road, though we never pressure customers into additional work.
