Citrus Heights had 87,583 residents at the 2020 census, which makes it our largest service-area community after Folsom. It sits northwest of Folsom in Sacramento County, beyond Orangevale and Fair Oaks, and became its own city in January 1997. The drive is a little longer than to our nearer towns, but it is still a real same-day trip, usually 13 to 16 miles depending on the neighborhood.
The city is named for the citrus groves that once covered the area, and it grew from a rural farming community into a suburban residential city. You can still see that history in the housing, which is a patchwork of established neighborhoods rather than one master-planned build-out. Named areas include Sylvan Old Auburn Road, Birdcage Heights, Sunrise Oaks, Sunrise Ranch, Park Oaks, and Cresthaven, plus the Arcade Creek and Rusch Park neighborhoods.
Sunrise MarketPlace and the Sunrise Mall area anchor the commercial center, and Rusch Community Park and the Arcade Creek Park Preserve are the main green spaces. The businesses along Sunrise Boulevard have their own plumbing needs, including backflow testing, grease trap service for restaurants, restroom repairs, and water heater sizing. We handle both the homes and the shops.
Citrus Heights uses two street-delivery ZIP codes, 95610 and 95621. A third code, 95611, is for PO Boxes only. ZIP 95610 also reaches a western edge of Orangevale, so a street in one town can carry the other's ZIP code. When we dispatch, we go by your street address rather than the ZIP, which avoids any mix-up.
Because most of the city developed gradually from farmland, neighboring streets can be built in different decades. Older homes may still have original galvanized supply lines or cast iron drains, while newer infill uses PEX and PVC. We ask the home's approximate age on the phone, so the right parts are already on the truck when we arrive.
Two things come up often in established suburbs like this. Old sewer laterals clog repeatedly as roots and settling work on the joints, and water heaters installed a decade or more ago start to fail on a similar schedule. Both are easier and cheaper to handle on your schedule than during an emergency, and we will tell you honestly when a repair can wait.
We dispatch to Citrus Heights for drain cleaning, hydro jetting, water heater repair and replacement, sewer line repair, leak detection, burst pipe repair, and repiping. Our 24/7 emergency line covers both street-delivery ZIPs. All work follows California Plumbing Code (UPC-based) standards, with permits pulled where required.
If You Have A Burst Pipe Or Active Leak
- Turn the main water valve off at once, usually near the house where the water line enters
- If water is near outlets or the panel, stay clear and leave the electrical to us
- Move shoes, boxes, and small furniture off the wet floor right away
- Photograph the damage first, for your insurance, then start any cleanup
- Call our 24/7 line with your street name and the nearest cross street such as Sunrise Boulevard

Do you cover every ZIP code in Citrus Heights?
Yes. Citrus Heights uses the street-delivery ZIP codes 95610 and 95621, with 95611 reserved for PO Boxes, and we dispatch throughout both. Because 95610 also reaches part of Orangevale, we go by your street address.
Is emergency service available in Citrus Heights?
Yes, our 24/7 emergency line covers all of Citrus Heights, both the 95610 and 95621 ZIPs, the same as Folsom.
How far is Citrus Heights from Folsom?
Roughly 13 to 16 driving miles northwest, depending on the neighborhood. It is a longer trip than Orangevale, so we confirm an arrival window when you call.
Do you serve businesses along Sunrise Boulevard?
Yes. We handle commercial plumbing for shops and restaurants, including backflow testing, grease trap service, and restroom repairs, scheduled around your hours.
Is Citrus Heights in the same county as Folsom?
Yes, both are in Sacramento County, so the same county permitting and inspection rules generally apply.
