Sewer Lines Under Citrus Heights Homes
Many Citrus Heights homes have the sewer line crossing a front lawn to the street, a short run that suits lining or bursting well.
What we run into in Citrus Heights
- Tree roots. Roots are the most common thing the camera finds here. Cutting them buys time; lining the pipe takes away the joints they get in through.
- Newer plastic lines. Plastic sewer lines laid in loose backfill can drift out of grade over the years, leaving low spots where waste collects.

Call (833) 529-2616Sewer Line Failures We See Around Citrus Heights
These are the failures behind most calls for trenchless sewer line repair in Citrus Heights, CA. A camera pass usually shows which one you have.
Roots in the line
Cutting roots clears the pipe for a while; a liner removes the joints they get through, so they stay out.
Breaks and shifted joints
Cracks, holes and joints that have slipped out of line leak and snag waste. Lining covers them with new pipe.
Corroded or collapsing pipe
Cast iron scales and rots from inside, and Orangeburg flattens. Cast iron is often lined; Orangeburg is usually burst.
A dip in the yard or drive
Soil washing into a broken pipe can leave a depression or a small sinkhole above it.
Failed sewer scope at sale
Home inspections now often include a camera pass, and a bad report can stall a sale until the line is fixed.
Several drains slow at once
One slow sink is a local clog. Tubs, toilets and sinks slowing together point to the main line.
Can't tell which one you have? Describe what the drains are doing, and the likely cause comes back on the call.
Line It or Burst It? Deciding in Citrus Heights
If the old pipe is intact enough for a liner to follow, lining is usually the least disruptive fix. Where it is crushed, Orangeburg or badly out of round, pipe bursting pulls a new HDPE line through the same route.

Citrus Heights Homes by the Numbers
Only about 3% of homes in Citrus Heights were built before 1950, so most laterals here are later materials, which tend to fail at joints and connections or from roots and ground movement rather than from old clay. Another 60% were built between 1950 and 1979, a stretch when cast iron, clay and fiber (Orangeburg) laterals were all still in use, and the median home overall dates from 1977. About 68% of homes are single-family and 60% are owner-occupied; the lateral from the building to the city connection is generally the owner's responsibility, so the repair-or-replace decision is usually theirs.
With about 87,036 residents on roughly 14 square miles (near 6,121 per square mile), Citrus Heights is dense, with many repairs happening in shared buildings, basements and utility closets. It is number 89 by population of the 619 California places on our service list.
