We plumb homes and businesses every day, and we're good at it, covering everything from a slow kitchen drain to a full sewer line replacement. Our crew handles the full range of residential and commercial plumbing work: drain cleaning and clog removal, leak detection and repair, water heater repair and replacement, toilet and faucet and fixture installation, sewer and main line service, garbage disposals, water pressure and shutoff valve repair, and whole-home repiping. Work is performed by licensed plumbers who follow California code on every job. We stand behind every pipe and fixture we touch.
A slow drain is easy to ignore until it backs up completely. We clear clogged sinks, kitchen and bathroom drains, floor drains, and main drains using drain snaking and hydro jetting, depending on what the blockage calls for. For stubborn or recurring clogs, we use sewer camera inspection to find the root cause so the problem does not keep coming back.
Hidden leaks do real damage before you ever spot them. We track down pipe leaks, water line leaks, and slab leaks using pressure testing and detection equipment, then make the repair properly. Older Sacramento County housing stock means slab leak detection and repair comes up regularly in this area, and we have the experience to handle it without unnecessary disruption to your home. We make the repair and leave it tidy.
No hot water is an urgent problem, not a minor inconvenience. We repair and replace tank water heaters of all sizes and brands, and we respond quickly to no-hot-water calls for both homes and commercial properties. If your unit is aging out or you are ready to upgrade to a tankless system, we can walk you through your options. We protect your floors and finishes while we work.
A running toilet wastes more water than most people realize, and a dripping faucet adds up fast on your bill. We handle running toilet repair, clogged toilet clearing, toilet replacement, dripping faucet repair, and full kitchen and bathroom faucet installation. We also install shower and bathtub fixtures and handle plumbing fixture replacement of all kinds. If it is in your bathroom or kitchen and it involves water, we take care of it.
A sewer backup is one of the messiest plumbing problems a property can face. We clear main sewer line clogs, repair sewer backups, clean and inspect sewer lines, and handle full sewer line repair and replacement when the pipe itself is the problem. Video pipe inspection lets us see exactly what is going on inside the line before we recommend a course of action.
A jammed or leaking garbage disposal, low water pressure, or a shutoff valve that will not close all the way are the kinds of problems that disrupt daily life without warning. We repair, install, and replace garbage disposals, diagnose and fix low water pressure, and replace shutoff valves and main water shutoffs. We also handle water supply line repair so your fixtures get the flow they need.
Older Citrus Heights homes often carry aging pipe materials that were never meant to last this long. Galvanized steel and older copper lines corrode from the inside over time, leading to low pressure, discolored water, and eventual leaks. We perform whole-house repipes using copper or PEX, depending on your home and budget, and we plan the work to minimize disruption. Pick up the phone and we'll handle the pipes.
Whether it's a single faucet or a full repipe, we take every call seriously, but a plumbing emergency gets our fastest response. Burst pipe, major leak, no hot water, sewer backup: these are not problems you can schedule for next week. We offer same-day availability and emergency plumbing service for both residential and commercial customers in Citrus Heights and the surrounding area.
We keep you posted from the first call until the water's flowing again. You will always know who is coming, when they are arriving, and what we found when we got there. Call us and the rest is on our team.
We've handled everything from a dripping faucet to a full repipe, and local conditions shape the work we see most often. The Sacramento Valley brings hot, dry summers, moderate winters, hard water tendencies, and real seismic risk. Those factors push specific plumbing needs to the top of the list for Citrus Heights homeowners and businesses. The three services below come up constantly in this area, and we are set up to handle all of them well.
Fair price every visit. On time every visit. Code-compliant every visit.
Sacramento Valley summers drive high hot-water demand, and an aging tank unit working overtime in the heat is a recipe for early failure. Tankless water heaters heat water on demand rather than keeping a full tank warm around the clock, which cuts energy use and eliminates the risk of a tank rupture. We install, repair, and replace tankless units and handle the gas line connection to the unit so the whole job is done right by one crew. Call us and the rest is on our team.
California's water conservation standards are among the most demanding in the country, and drought conditions in this region make efficient fixtures more than a regulatory requirement. They are a practical way to reduce your water bill without changing how you live. We install low-flow toilets, water-efficient faucets, and upgraded shower fixtures that meet current code requirements. All fixture installation is code-compliant and built to last. We make the repair and leave it tidy.
Citrus Heights and the broader Sacramento area sit in a seismically active region. An automatic earthquake gas shutoff valve closes the gas line the moment it detects seismic movement, cutting off the supply before a leak can develop into a hazard. We install shutoff valves on the gas line coming into your property, inspect existing valves for proper function, and handle gas line repairs as needed. It is a straightforward upgrade that adds real safety to your home or building. Pick up the phone and we'll handle the pipes.
We work with homeowners, renters, landlords, property managers, and businesses throughout the area. On the residential side, that means everyday repairs, water heater replacement, fixture upgrades, repiping older homes, and showing up fast when something goes wrong. On the commercial side, we handle commercial drain cleaning, commercial water heater installation, commercial pipe repair, and plumbing service for restaurants, office buildings, and multi-unit properties.
We have been doing this work since 2011, and the range of customers we serve has only grown. Whether you manage a single rental property or a commercial building, the standard is the same: work performed by licensed plumbers, on time, and done to code. Call us and the rest is on our team.
Cost is a real concern, and we do not dance around it. Before any work begins, we give you a clear picture of what the job involves and what it will cost. No surprise add-ons after the fact, no inflated quotes designed to leave room for a discount. We tell you what we see, what we recommend, and what it runs.
That approach has kept customers calling us back since 2011. It is no pressure and no gimmicks, just sound, lasting plumbing and an honest conversation about your options. Call (279) 529-1995 to request an estimate and find out what the job will cost before we start.
Citrus Heights is our home base, but we serve customers across Sacramento County and the surrounding communities. If you are in Fair Oaks, Orangevale, Antelope, or North Highlands, we are nearby. We also regularly serve Roseville, Folsom, Rancho Cordova, and Sacramento. If you are close to Citrus Heights and need a plumber, there is a good chance we are already working in your neighborhood. Call us and the rest is on our team.
Call (279) 529-1995 and we will find the earliest available slot for your situation. We keep same-day availability for urgent calls, and we will give you an honest arrival window when you call. The sooner you call, the sooner we can get someone out.
Yes. Burst pipes, sewer backups, major leaks, and no-hot-water calls are exactly the situations we move on quickly. We offer same-day availability for emergency plumbing in Citrus Heights and the surrounding Sacramento County communities. Call us and we will get you on the schedule as fast as we can.
Locate the shutoff valve behind or beneath the fixture and turn it clockwise to stop the water flow. If you cannot find the valve or it will not close, shut off the main water supply to the house. Then call us at (279) 529-1995 and we will get a plumber out to you.
For same-day and emergency calls, we aim to arrive within a few hours depending on current schedule and your location. We give you a clear arrival window when you book so you are not waiting around without a time frame. We keep you posted from the first call until the water's flowing again.
A single visit can cover a wide range of work: clearing a clogged drain, repairing a leak, replacing a faucet or toilet, servicing a water heater, or diagnosing low water pressure. If we find additional issues during the visit, we walk you through what we see and let you decide how to proceed. We do not push unnecessary work.
Yes. We work with offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and multi-unit residential buildings throughout Citrus Heights and Sacramento County. Commercial plumbing service includes drain cleaning, water heater replacement, fixture installation, sewer and main line work, and ongoing repairs. We schedule around business hours when possible to minimize disruption.
Common warning signs include low water pressure throughout the house, discolored or rust-tinged water, recurring leaks at multiple locations, and pipes that are visibly corroded or original to a mid-century home. Galvanized steel pipe in particular corrodes from the inside over time and eventually needs to be replaced. If you are seeing any of these signs in your Citrus Heights home, give us a call and we can assess the situation.
A drain that clogs repeatedly usually means the problem is deeper than the fixture itself. Tree root intrusion, grease buildup, or a damaged section of pipe in the main sewer line are common causes. We use sewer camera inspection to find the root cause so we can fix the problem rather than just clear it again.
Locally owned and personally accountable, Medina Plumbing & Radiant Heating has been serving Citrus Heights and Sacramento County since 2011. We pick up the phone, show up when we say we will, and do the work right the first time. Residential or commercial, routine or urgent, we are ready to help.

We handle the full range of residential and commercial plumbing work in Citrus Heights and across Sacramento County, from a slow drain to a whole-home repipe. Every job is performed by licensed plumbers who follow California code, and we give you a clear, honest estimate before any work begins. The table below covers what each service includes, who it fits best, and a practical note to help you decide your next step.
| Service | Scope of Work | Best For | Good to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sewer and Main Line Service | main sewer line clog clearing, sewer backup repair, video pipe inspection and sewer line replacement | properties with slow drains throughout the house or signs of a sewer backup | Video inspection lets us see exactly what is inside the line before we recommend repair or replacement. |
| Emergency Plumbing | burst pipe response, major leak control, same-day and urgent scheduling | any situation where water is actively causing damage or service has stopped entirely | We keep same-day availability for emergency calls; the sooner you call, the sooner we can get someone out. |
| Leak Detection and Repair | pressure testing and detection equipment, pipe leaks and water line leaks, slab leak location and repair | properties with unexplained water damage, high bills, or visible moisture | Older Sacramento County housing stock makes slab leak detection one of the more common calls we handle in this area. |
| Faucet and Fixture Installation | dripping faucet repair, kitchen and bathroom faucet replacement, shower and bathtub fixture installation | homeowners upgrading fixtures or dealing with a persistent drip | We install fixtures you supply or help you select options that meet current California code. |
| Pressure-Regulating Valve Installation | PRV installation and replacement, pressure testing before and after, whole-home pressure correction | homes with consistently high or inconsistent water pressure | High incoming pressure from the municipal supply can shorten the life of fixtures and appliances; a PRV protects the whole system. |
| Toilet Repair and Installation | running toilet repair, clogged toilet clearing, full toilet replacement | any household or commercial property with a leaking, running, or failing toilet | A running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons a week; most repairs are straightforward and completed in a single visit. |
| Water Pressure and Shutoff Valve Repair | low water pressure diagnosis, shutoff valve and main water shutoff replacement, water supply line repair | homes or businesses with pressure problems or valves that will not fully close | A failing pressure-regulating valve is a common cause of low pressure throughout the house and is a straightforward fix. |
| Tankless Water Heater Installation | tankless unit installation and replacement, gas line connection to the unit, repair and maintenance of existing tankless systems | homeowners ready to upgrade from a tank unit or dealing with high energy costs | Tankless units heat water on demand, which reduces energy use and eliminates the risk of a tank rupture during our hot Sacramento summers. |
| Water Heater Repair and Replacement | tank water heater repair and replacement, all major brands and sizes, same-day response for no-hot-water calls | homeowners or businesses with an aging, failing, or underperforming water heater | Hot Sacramento Valley summers accelerate tank wear; if your unit is over ten years old, a replacement estimate is worth having. |
| Drain Cleaning and Clog Removal | drain snaking and hydro jetting, kitchen, bathroom, and floor drains, sewer camera inspection for recurring clogs | homeowners or businesses with slow or backed-up drains | Recurring clogs often point to a deeper issue; camera inspection finds the root cause so the fix lasts. |
| Whole-Home Repiping | copper and PEX repipe, galvanized and aging pipe replacement, planned work to minimize disruption | older homes with corroding pipes, low pressure, or discolored water | Many Citrus Heights homes still carry original galvanized steel lines that corrode from the inside over time; repiping restores full pressure and water quality. |

| Earthquake Gas Shutoff Valves | automatic seismic shutoff valve installation, inspection of existing valves, gas line repair | Citrus Heights and Sacramento area homeowners in seismically active zones | An automatic shutoff valve closes the gas line the moment it detects seismic movement, cutting off supply before a leak can develop. |
How do I know if my water heater needs to be repaired or fully replaced?
Age is the first factor. Tank water heaters typically last eight to twelve years, and units past that range are often more cost-effective to replace than repair. Beyond age, watch for inconsistent hot water, rumbling or popping sounds from the tank, rust-colored water at the tap, or visible corrosion around the unit. If your heater is failing during a Sacramento Valley summer when demand is already high, that added strain tends to accelerate the problem. Call us and we will assess the unit and walk you through your options honestly.
What is the difference between a tank and a tankless water heater?
A tank water heater stores a set volume of hot water and keeps it warm around the clock, which means it uses energy continuously. A tankless unit heats water on demand as it flows through the system, so there is no standby heat loss and no risk of a tank rupture. Tankless units cost more upfront but typically last longer and reduce monthly energy use. We handle both types and can explain which makes more sense for your household size, usage habits, and budget.
What causes a drain to keep clogging even after I clear it?
A drain that backs up repeatedly usually means the blockage is not at the fixture itself. Grease and soap buildup, tree root intrusion, or a damaged section of pipe deeper in the sewer line are common causes. Clearing the fixture gives temporary relief, but the underlying problem stays. We use sewer camera inspection to see exactly what is happening inside the line so we can fix the actual cause rather than clear the same clog again.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
Burst pipes, sewer backups, and no-hot-water calls move to the front of the line. We keep same-day availability for urgent situations and give you a clear arrival window when you call.
How do you find a hidden pipe leak?
We use pressure testing and detection equipment to locate leaks that are not visible at the surface. For slab leaks, which come up often in older Sacramento County homes, we use specialized detection methods to pinpoint the leak location before opening anything up. That process keeps the repair focused and limits disruption to your flooring and finishes. Once we find it, we make the repair properly rather than just addressing the symptom.
What are the signs that my sewer or main line has a problem?
Multiple slow drains throughout the house at the same time is one of the clearest signs. Others include gurgling sounds from toilets when you run water elsewhere, sewage odors inside or near the foundation, wet patches in the yard with no obvious source, and drains that back up into other fixtures. Any one of these warrants a call. We use video pipe inspection to see inside the line and confirm what is going on before recommending a repair or replacement.
How do estimates and pricing work?
Before any work begins, we give you a clear picture of what the job involves and what it will cost. There are no surprise add-ons after the fact and no inflated quotes designed to leave room for a discount. We tell you what we see, what we recommend, and what it runs. If we find additional issues during the visit, we walk you through what we found and let you decide how to proceed. We do not push unnecessary work.
Transparent Upfront Pricing
We tell you what the job involves and what it costs before any work begins. No surprise fees, no inflated quotes, and no pressure to approve work you did not ask for.
Do I need to be home when the plumber arrives?
For most work, yes. Someone needs to be present to provide access to the property, confirm the scope of work, and approve any findings before we proceed. If you are a landlord or property manager coordinating access for a tenant, let us know when you call and we will work out the details with you. We give you a clear arrival window so you are not waiting around without a time frame.
When should I call a plumber instead of trying to fix something myself?
Minor tasks like replacing a showerhead or tightening a supply line connection are reasonable DIY work. Once you are dealing with anything inside the wall, under the slab, at the main shutoff, on the gas line, or involving the sewer line, a licensed plumber should handle it. Mistakes on those systems can cause water damage, code violations, or safety hazards that cost significantly more to correct. If you are unsure, a quick call to describe the situation costs nothing.
Work Performed by Licensed Plumbers
Every job is handled by licensed plumbers who follow California code. We stand behind every pipe and fixture we touch.
What should I do if a pipe bursts or a major leak starts?
Locate the shutoff valve closest to the problem and turn it clockwise to stop the water flow. If you cannot find it or it will not close, shut off the main water supply where it enters the house. Then call us at (279) 529-1995. We keep same-day availability for emergency calls and will get a plumber out to you as quickly as the schedule allows. The sooner you call, the sooner we can limit the damage.
How long does a whole-home repipe take?
Most whole-home repipes in a standard single-family residence take one to three days depending on the size of the home, the pipe material being replaced, and the complexity of the layout. We plan the work to minimize disruption and will give you a realistic time frame when we assess the job. Water service is restored at the end of each working day whenever possible so the household is not without water overnight.
What is hydro jetting and when does it make sense over drain snaking?
Drain snaking uses a rotating cable to break through or pull out a blockage. It is effective for most common clogs and is the right starting point in most situations. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to scour the inside of the pipe, clearing grease buildup, mineral scale, and debris that snaking pushes through but leaves behind. It makes the most sense for persistent or recurring clogs, for commercial kitchens with heavy grease buildup, or when camera inspection shows significant buildup along the pipe walls.
