Murray Plumbing handles the full spectrum of plumbing services that Rescue homeowners need. From emergency repairs when your pipes burst to routine plumbing maintenance that prevents problems before they start.
We tackle the common California plumbing issues that plague Rescue homes: leaky faucets that waste hundreds of gallons yearly, clogged drains from hair and soap buildup, and running toilets that can waste 200 gallons per day. We also handle the bigger challenges like aging galvanized pipes, hard water problems, and water heater failures.
Our plumbing inspections catch small issues before they become expensive emergencies. Whether you need a quick drain cleaning or a complete plumbing system overhaul, we bring the same professional approach to every job.
A plumbing emergency is any situation that threatens your property or health and requires immediate attention. This includes burst pipes, sewer backups, overflowing toilets, complete loss of water, gas leaks from water heaters, or major leaks causing water damage.
In Rescue’s climate, frozen pipes during cold snaps can burst and flood your home within minutes. Sewer line backups can contaminate your living space with raw sewage. Water heater failures not only leave you without hot water but can cause significant water damage if the tank ruptures.
If you’re unsure whether your situation qualifies as an emergency, call us anyway. We’d rather help you prevent a disaster than clean up after one.
We provide 24/7 emergency plumbing services and prioritize rapid response to prevent property damage. Most emergency calls in Rescue receive same-day service, often within a few hours of your call.
Response time depends on your specific location in Rescue and current demand, but we understand that plumbing emergencies can’t wait. A burst pipe can release over 100 gallons per minute, so every minute counts when it comes to protecting your home.
When you call our emergency line, you’ll speak with a real person who can give you an accurate timeframe and walk you through immediate steps to minimize damage until we arrive.
Rescue homes face several common plumbing issues due to California’s unique conditions. Leaky faucets top the list, often caused by hard water mineral buildup damaging washers and O-rings. Clogged drains are extremely common, especially in kitchen sinks and bathroom drains where grease, hair, and soap create stubborn blockages.
Many Rescue homes have aging galvanized pipes that are nearing the end of their lifespan, causing low water pressure, rusty water, and frequent leaks. Running toilets waste significant water and drive up utility bills, usually due to faulty flapper valves or sediment buildup from hard water.
Water heater problems are also frequent, particularly in older homes where sediment accumulation reduces efficiency and can lead to premature failure. Regular plumbing maintenance helps catch these issues before they become expensive emergencies.
Absolutely. We believe in transparent pricing with no surprises. Before any work begins, we’ll diagnose your plumbing problem and provide a clear, written estimate that explains exactly what needs to be done and what it will cost.
Many of our Rescue customers are pleasantly surprised when their final bill comes in lower than our original estimate. We don’t believe in padding costs or finding “additional problems” once we start working. The price we quote is the price you pay.
For emergency calls, we’ll give you a service call fee upfront, which gets applied to any work we perform. This approach has earned us our 4.7-star rating because customers appreciate knowing exactly what they’re paying for before we start the work.
We recommend annual plumbing inspections for most Rescue homes, with more frequent service if you have an older home or have experienced recurring issues. California’s hard water and aging infrastructure make preventive maintenance especially important here.
During a plumbing maintenance visit, we inspect your entire system for potential problems: checking water pressure, examining exposed pipes for leaks or corrosion, testing water heater efficiency, and ensuring drains flow properly. We also look for California-specific issues like mineral buildup from hard water and signs of earthquake damage to pipe connections.
Regular maintenance typically costs a fraction of emergency repairs and helps extend the life of your plumbing system. Many problems we catch during routine inspections would have become expensive emergencies within months if left unaddressed.
First, locate and shut off your main water valve if you’re dealing with a major leak or burst pipe. In Rescue homes, this is usually near your service line outside the building. Turn wheel valves counter-clockwise or straight-handle valves a quarter-turn clockwise until water stops flowing.
For overflowing toilets, turn off the water supply valve behind the toilet (usually located on the wall). If you smell gas near your water heater, evacuate immediately and call both us and your gas company. Don’t use electrical switches or create sparks if you suspect a gas leak.
Move valuable items away from water damage areas and try to contain flooding with towels or buckets if safe to do so. Take photos of damage for insurance purposes if possible. Most importantly, don’t attempt major repairs yourself—you could make the situation worse or create safety hazards.
