You’re not calling a plumber because you want to. You’re calling because something broke, something’s leaking, or something stopped working entirely. Maybe it’s the water heater that gave out before your morning shower. Maybe it’s the toilet that won’t stop running, or the sink drain that’s been slow for weeks and finally quit altogether.
What you need is someone who picks up the phone, shows up when they say they will, and actually fixes the problem. Not a temporary patch. Not a “let’s see if this works” approach. A real fix that holds up so you can stop thinking about your plumbing and get back to everything else.
That’s what our plumbing services in East Foothills are built around. You call, we respond, we diagnose the issue, and we handle it. Same-day service for urgent problems. Clear pricing before we start. And work that’s done right so you’re not dealing with the same issue two weeks later.
All Fresh Temp has been serving Santa Clara County for nearly four decades. We started with heating and cooling, and we’ve since expanded into full plumbing services because the same homes that need reliable HVAC need reliable plumbing.
East Foothills has its own set of challenges. Older homes near Alum Rock Park often have galvanized pipes that corrode over time. The mineral-rich water in this area creates hard water buildup that clogs fixtures and shortens the life of water heaters. Tree roots work their way into sewer lines. These aren’t problems you solve with generic fixes.
We’re licensed, bonded, and available when you need us—including nights, weekends, and holidays. If it’s an emergency, we treat it like one.
First, you call or contact us online. We’ll ask a few questions to understand what’s going on—what’s broken, what’s leaking, how urgent it is. If it’s an emergency, we prioritize getting someone out fast. If it’s scheduled work, we find a time that works for you.
When we arrive, we assess the situation. That might mean running a camera through your sewer line to find a blockage, testing water pressure, or inspecting your water heater. We explain what we find in plain terms, not plumber jargon. Then we give you a clear estimate before any work starts.
Once you approve, we get to work. We carry most parts and tools on the truck, so we’re not making multiple trips or leaving you waiting. When the job’s done, we test everything to make sure it works, clean up, and walk you through what we did. If there’s anything you should keep an eye on or maintain going forward, we’ll tell you that too.

We handle the full range of plumbing work. That includes drain cleaning when your kitchen or bathroom sinks back up, leak detection when you’ve got water damage but can’t find the source, and pipe repairs for anything from small leaks to full line replacements. If your water heater stops heating or starts leaking, we repair or replace it depending on what makes sense for your situation and budget.
For East Foothills homes specifically, we deal with a lot of hard water issues. Water softener installations help protect your pipes and appliances from mineral buildup. We also handle sewer line repairs, including trenchless methods that don’t require tearing up your yard. If you’re adding an accessory dwelling unit, we do the plumbing rough-in and finish work to meet local building codes.
Emergency plumbing services are available around the clock. Burst pipes, overflowing toilets, broken water lines—we respond fast because we know how much damage water can do in a short amount of time. For non-urgent work, we schedule at your convenience and show up on time.
If you’ve got a burst pipe, a flooding situation, or no hot water in the middle of winter, we treat that as the emergency it is. We offer same-day service for urgent calls and prioritize getting a plumber to your door as quickly as possible—often within a couple of hours depending on our current schedule and your location in East Foothills.
When you call, let us know it’s an emergency. We’ll ask a few quick questions to understand the severity and dispatch someone right away. We’re available nights, weekends, and holidays because plumbing problems don’t wait for business hours.
The faster we get there, the less damage water can do to your floors, walls, and belongings. That’s why we keep trucks stocked and ready to roll.
Low water pressure usually comes down to a few common culprits, especially in older East Foothills homes. Galvanized pipes corrode from the inside over time, narrowing the pathway for water to flow. Mineral deposits from hard water build up in pipes and fixtures, restricting flow even further. Sometimes it’s a partially closed shutoff valve, a failing pressure regulator, or a hidden leak somewhere in the system.
We start by testing pressure at different points to narrow down where the problem is. If it’s isolated to one faucet or fixture, it’s often a clogged aerator or valve. If it’s affecting the whole house, we’re likely looking at pipe corrosion or a pressure regulator issue.
Fixing low pressure might mean cleaning out aerators, replacing corroded pipes, installing a pressure booster, or addressing leaks. We’ll walk you through what’s causing it and what it’ll take to fix it before we do anything.
Yes. We install new water heaters and repair existing ones when it makes sense. If your water heater is leaking from the tank itself, it usually needs to be replaced—that’s not something you can patch. If it’s not heating water properly, making strange noises, or leaking from a valve or connection, we can often repair it depending on the age and condition of the unit.
Most water heaters last 8 to 12 years. If yours is approaching that range and starting to have problems, replacement is usually the smarter move. We install both traditional tank water heaters and tankless models, and we’ll help you figure out which makes sense based on your household size, usage, and budget.
Installation includes hauling away your old unit, setting up the new one to code, and making sure everything’s working before we leave. We also handle any necessary upgrades to gas lines, venting, or electrical connections.
Trenchless sewer repair lets us fix or replace damaged sewer lines without tearing up your landscaping, driveway, or walkways. We use a couple of different methods depending on what’s wrong with the line.
Pipe lining involves inserting a flexible tube coated with resin into the damaged pipe. Once it’s in place, we inflate it and let the resin cure, creating a new pipe inside the old one. Pipe bursting involves pulling a new pipe through the old one while simultaneously breaking apart the damaged pipe. Both methods require only small access points at either end of the line.
Before we recommend trenchless repair, we run a camera through your sewer line to see exactly what we’re dealing with—cracks, root intrusion, corrosion, or collapse. If the damage is too severe or the pipe has completely collapsed, traditional excavation might be necessary. But in most cases, trenchless methods save you time, money, and the hassle of restoring your yard afterward.
Hidden leaks are frustrating because you see the damage—water stains on the ceiling, wet spots on the floor, a climbing water bill—but you can’t pinpoint the source. Don’t start tearing into walls or ceilings on your own. That’s where leak detection equipment comes in.
We use a combination of tools depending on the situation. Thermal imaging cameras detect temperature differences that indicate moisture behind walls or under floors. Acoustic leak detectors pick up the sound of water escaping from pipes, even when it’s buried or hidden. For slab leaks—leaks in pipes running under your concrete foundation—we use electronic leak detection to pinpoint the exact location without breaking up your entire floor.
Once we find the leak, we assess the damage and determine the best repair method. Sometimes it’s a simple fix. Other times it requires accessing the pipe through a wall or floor. Either way, we handle the repair and help you understand what caused it so you can prevent it from happening again.
Yes. We’re a licensed California plumbing contractor, which means we’ve met the state’s requirements for training, experience, and testing. We’re also fully insured and bonded, which protects you if something goes wrong during the job.
Licensing matters because plumbing work has to meet building codes and safety standards. Unlicensed plumbers might charge less, but they’re not accountable to the same standards, and their work often doesn’t pass inspection—which becomes your problem if you ever sell your home or file an insurance claim.
When we pull permits for work that requires them, inspectors check our credentials and review the work. That’s your assurance that everything’s done right. If you ever have questions about our licensing or insurance, we’re happy to provide documentation.
