Your Upper Land Park home has character—and plumbing challenges that come with that character. When your 1940s galvanized pipes finally give out, you need a plumbing contractor who understands historic homes, not someone who’ll tear apart your original woodwork to access a simple leak.
Here’s what you get with Murray Plumbing: We show up the same day when other plumbers are booking a week out. We know exactly what to expect in homes from the 1920s through 1950s. You get transparent pricing upfront—the quote we give you is exactly what you pay.
Most importantly, we solve your plumbing problems without damaging your home’s historic character. Your pipes work like they should, and your house stays beautiful.
Murray Plumbing has built our reputation fixing plumbing problems in Upper Land Park’s historic homes. We know that most houses in your neighborhood were built in the 1930s and 40s with galvanized pipes that are now reaching the end of their 50-80 year lifespan.
We’ve worked in dozens of homes just like yours. We understand the unique challenges: sewer lines that have shifted over decades, water lines running through exterior walls that freeze in Sacramento’s winters, and original fixtures that look great but waste water.
Our 5-star rating comes from doing exactly what we promise: showing up on time, providing honest pricing, and fixing your plumbing maintenance issues the right way the first time.
When you call Murray Plumbing, here’s exactly what happens: We listen to your problem and schedule a time that works for you—often the same day. We show up when promised, not in some vague four-hour window that ruins your entire day.
Our plumbing contractor diagnoses the issue using professional tools, including sewer cameras for pinpoint accuracy in older homes. Before starting any work, we explain what’s wrong in plain English and give you an upfront price. No work begins until you approve it.
We complete the repair efficiently, test everything to make sure it works properly, and clean up after ourselves. You get a follow-up call to ensure everything is still working perfectly.

Upper Land Park’s homes require specialized plumbing services that most contractors don’t understand. Your neighborhood’s tree-lined streets mean sewer lines invaded by roots. Sacramento’s wet winters put extra stress on aging galvanized pipes. Original fixtures from the 1940s waste water and money.
We handle everything your historic home needs: emergency leak repair, complete drain cleaning, water heater replacement, sewer line inspection and repair, and fixture upgrades that maintain your home’s character. Our plumbing maintenance service helps prevent problems before they become expensive emergencies.
Sacramento plumbers often treat every house the same. We understand that your 1930s bungalow has different challenges than a modern subdivision home, and we come prepared with the right expertise and equipment for historic plumbing systems.
We provide 24/7 emergency plumbing services and typically arrive within hours of your call. While other Sacramento plumbers are booking emergency calls a week out, we prioritize same-day service for urgent problems.
For true emergencies like burst pipes or sewage backups, we drop everything and get to your Upper Land Park home as quickly as possible. We understand that plumbing emergencies don’t wait for business hours, and water damage gets exponentially worse every hour you wait.
Our customers consistently mention in reviews that we showed up when we said we would—something that’s apparently rare in the plumbing industry.
Homes built between the 1920s and 1950s typically have galvanized steel pipes that corrode from the inside out, causing low water pressure, rusty water, and eventual leaks. We also frequently see sewer line problems from tree root intrusion and pipes that have shifted as houses settle over decades.
Many Upper Land Park homes have water lines running through exterior walls, which freeze during Sacramento’s colder months. Cast iron drain pipes are reaching the end of their 50-80 year lifespan and often rust from the inside out. Original fixtures, while beautiful, often waste water and don’t function reliably.
These aren’t problems you can put off—they get worse and more expensive over time. The key is catching them early through regular plumbing inspections.
You get an exact price before any work begins, and that’s precisely what you pay. No diagnostic fees, no “additional problems discovered” that magically appear after we start working, no surprise charges when we’re finished.
We’ve built our reputation on transparent pricing because we’ve seen how other plumbing contractors operate. You deserve to know exactly what you’re paying before committing to the work. Our customers consistently mention that our final bill matched our initial quote exactly.
If we discover additional issues during the repair, we stop work, explain what we found, provide a separate quote for that work, and get your approval before proceeding.
Absolutely. We handle everything from 2 AM emergency calls to planned bathroom renovations and complete plumbing system overhauls. Many Upper Land Park customers start with an emergency repair and then work with us to systematically upgrade their entire plumbing system.
For planned work, we provide free estimates and work around your schedule. For emergencies, we’re available 24/7 and arrive prepared to solve the problem immediately, not just provide a temporary fix.
Whether you need a quick leak repair or want to replace all the galvanized pipes in your 1940s home, we bring the same professional approach and quality workmanship to every job.
We’ve worked on dozens of Upper Land Park homes and understand how to access plumbing systems without damaging original woodwork, plaster walls, or architectural details that make your home special.
When possible, we route new pipes through existing pathways or less visible areas. We use modern, reliable materials but install them in ways that preserve your home’s historic character. Our goal is solving your plumbing problems while respecting the craftsmanship that makes your house unique.
We also take extra care to protect your floors, furniture, and belongings during work, and we always clean up thoroughly when finished. You shouldn’t have to choose between functional plumbing and preserving your home’s character.
Our plumbing maintenance service includes comprehensive inspection of your entire system, checking for early signs of corrosion, leaks, or blockages that are common in older homes. We test water pressure, examine all fixtures and connections, and use camera technology to inspect sewer lines for root intrusion or settling issues.
We provide specific recommendations for preventing future problems, which is crucial in historic homes. This might include timelines for replacing aging galvanized pipes, suggestions for fixture upgrades that maintain your home’s character, or simple maintenance tasks you can handle yourself.
Regular maintenance is especially important for Upper Land Park homes because small problems in older systems can quickly become expensive emergencies that damage original features or structural elements.
