Sacramento County
Water damage & mold help in Sacramento, CA
Sacramento sits where the Sacramento and American rivers meet, and much of the city depends on levees for flood protection. It's often described as one of the most flood-prone large cities in the country. The 2023 atmospheric river storms tested the levee system and flooded areas south of the city, and summer heat above 100°F adds AC and roof problems.

Sacramento homes and water damage
Midtown, Land Park and East Sacramento have 1910s–1940s bungalows and Tudors, many on raised foundations with crawlspaces and original plumbing. Natomas, built in a former floodplain basin behind levees, is mostly newer slab-on-grade housing. Many homes in older neighborhoods have been updated over the years, but original plumbing and roofs are still common.
River and levee flooding
The Sacramento and American rivers flood during prolonged winter storms, and many neighborhoods, including Natomas, sit in protected floodplains behind levees.
Atmospheric rivers
Back-to-back winter storms, like those in early 2023, saturate soil and overwhelm drainage.
Summer heat and AC leaks
Long, hot summers keep AC systems running, and clogged condensate lines and pans overflow into ceilings.
Tree damage
Sacramento's large urban tree canopy means winter storms drop limbs on roofs, letting rain inside.
Older bungalow plumbing
Midtown and Land Park bungalows from the 1920s–40s often still have galvanized supply lines and cast-iron drains that corrode and leak inside walls and crawlspaces.
