Hear from Our Customers
You’re dealing with more than just a broken pipe or failed water heater. You’re facing disrupted routines, potential property damage, and the stress of finding someone you can trust to fix it right the first time.
When your plumbing works properly, your mornings flow smoothly. You take hot showers without worry, your kitchen functions efficiently, and you sleep soundly knowing your home’s systems are reliable.
That’s what happens when you work with a plumber who understands Sacramento’s unique challenges. From the aging copper pipes in Arden-Arcade homes to the hard water issues that plague local systems, we know what you’re up against and how to solve it permanently.
Murray Plumbing has been serving Sacramento homeowners who need reliable plumbing solutions that work. We’re the plumbing contractor locals call when they’re tired of excuses and want their problems solved quickly.
Sacramento’s housing stock averages from 1975, which means most homes have aging copper pipes and systems that weren’t designed for modern usage demands. We understand these local challenges because we’ve been fixing them for years.
You’ll find us different from other plumbing contractors in Sacramento because we focus on transparent communication and fair pricing. Our customers regularly tell us the final cost came in under our original estimate, not over it.
When you call Murray Plumbing, you’ll speak with someone who can actually help you, not a call center. We’ll ask about your specific problem and give you a clear timeframe for when we can be there.
Our plumber arrives with the tools and knowledge needed to diagnose your issue accurately. We explain what’s wrong, what it’ll cost to fix, and why that approach makes the most sense for your situation.
Once you approve the work, we handle everything efficiently and clean up when we’re done. You’ll know exactly what was repaired and what to expect moving forward, so there are no surprises later.

Murray Plumbing handles everything from emergency repairs to routine plumbing maintenance in Sacramento. Whether it’s a failed water heater, low water pressure issues, or sewer line problems, we have the expertise to solve it.
Sacramento’s hard water and aging infrastructure create specific challenges that require local knowledge. We understand how mineral buildup affects your pipes, why pressure regulators fail in this area, and which solutions actually last in our climate.
Our plumbing services include water heater repair and replacement, drain cleaning, sewer inspections, leak detection, and complete system maintenance. We use quality materials designed to handle Sacramento’s water conditions and provide warranties you can count on.
We typically respond to emergency plumbing calls in Sacramento within 2-4 hours, often sooner. Our goal is same-day service for urgent issues like burst pipes, sewer backups, or complete loss of hot water.
When you call with an emergency, we’ll give you a realistic timeframe based on your location and our current schedule. We don’t make promises we can’t keep, but we understand that plumbing emergencies can’t wait.
For true emergencies involving flooding or sewer backups, we prioritize these calls and often arrive within an hour or two of your call.
Low water pressure in Sacramento typically stems from aging copper pipes, mineral buildup from hard water, or faulty pressure regulators. Many Sacramento homes built in the 1970s have pipes that are reaching the end of their useful life.
Hard water is common in Sacramento, causing scale buildup inside pipes that restricts flow over time. Your pressure regulator, usually located near your water meter, can also fail and need replacement after 15-20 years.
We diagnose pressure issues by testing different fixtures, checking your pressure regulator, and inspecting visible pipes. Most pressure problems can be solved without full pipe replacement, but we’ll give you honest recommendations based on what we find.
Plumber service costs in Sacramento vary based on the specific problem, but we provide upfront pricing before starting any work. Simple repairs like unclogging drains typically cost $150-300, while water heater replacement ranges from $1,200-2,500 depending on the unit.
We don’t charge diagnostic fees for most service calls. Instead, we provide a clear estimate that covers the entire job, including labor and materials. Many customers tell us our final bill came in under our original estimate.
Emergency service doesn’t cost extra during normal business hours. We believe transparent pricing means no surprises on your bill, regardless of when you need help.
Yes, we handle all types of water heater issues in Sacramento, from repairs to complete replacements. Common problems include no hot water, fluctuating temperatures, rusty water, and strange noises from the unit.
Sacramento’s hard water accelerates sediment buildup in water heaters, which reduces efficiency and shortens lifespan. We can flush your system to remove sediment, replace faulty components, or recommend replacement when repair costs don’t make sense.
We work with both traditional tank water heaters and tankless systems. Most water heater repairs can be completed the same day, and we stock common replacement units for immediate installation when needed.
Sacramento homeowners should have their plumbing system inspected annually, especially in homes over 20 years old. This includes checking water pressure, inspecting visible pipes for leaks, and testing your pressure regulator.
Hard water in Sacramento makes drain cleaning and water heater flushing more important than in other areas. We recommend professional drain cleaning every 18-24 months and water heater maintenance annually to prevent sediment buildup.
Watch for signs like slow drains, water pressure changes, or unusual sounds from your water heater. Catching problems early prevents expensive emergencies and extends your plumbing system’s life.
