Citrus Heights sits on the hinge of this territory. Southwest of here are the mid-century tract neighborhoods that run through Carmichael toward our office; north and east are the newer Placer County subdivisions of Roseville, Rocklin and Granite Bay. The two halves of that map fail in different ways and dry in different ways. A single-story home from the tract era usually hides its plumbing in a slab or a shallow crawl space and moves a leak sideways under the flooring long before a stain shows on a wall. A newer two-story build sends water down instead, from an upstairs laundry or bathroom through the ceiling. United Water Restoration Group of Sacramento Northeast works out of an Arden-Arcade office, the next neighborhood over from Carmichael, so the crew covering this corner of the county is driving a route it already knows. Call (916) 909-7500 at any hour.

Crews dispatch 24/7 from our Sacramento base at 2912 Edison Ave and cover all of Citrus Heights — one local team, no subcontracted call centers. See all services in Citrus Heights or read more about emergency water extraction.

While You Wait for the Crew

A few minutes of the right first moves can save thousands in damage. Here is what to do — and what not to do — before we reach Citrus Heights.

Do

Don’t

Our Process

  1. 1

    Initial Assessment

    Our IICRC-trained team conducts a comprehensive inspection using moisture meters and thermal imaging to map out the water damage. This step is essential for understanding the full scope of the damage, allowing us to tailor our extraction and restoration efforts accordingly.

  2. 2

    Water Removal

    We employ powerful pumps and vacuums to efficiently extract standing water, minimizing exposure to affected areas. By quickly addressing the water intrusion, we help prevent the wicking of moisture up walls and into vulnerable materials.

  3. 3

    Drying and Dehumidification

    Strategically placed air movers and dehumidifiers speed up drying, monitored via moisture meter readings daily. Our use of low-grain refrigerant dehumidifiers is crucial for restoring indoor air quality and preventing further structural damage.

  4. 4

    Cleaning and Sanitization

    Thorough cleanup using antimicrobial treatments ensures spaces are safe while preventing future mold growth. This step is particularly important when dealing with Category 3 black water, ensuring that all contaminated areas are properly sanitized.

  5. 5

    Restoration Review

    Final inspections check for restoration completeness, confirming conditions meet pre-damage levels and every surface is dry. We collaborate closely with you and insurance adjusters to finalize the process with all documentation required for claims.

We Work With Your Insurance

Our crews document everything — photos, moisture readings, and a clear scope of work — in the format adjusters expect, and we communicate with your insurance company throughout the job. Citrus Heights homeowners always know what is happening and what their policy covers before work begins.
