Your Home Works Better When Everything Flows

A working plumbing system is invisible until it’s not. Then it’s everything.

You’re not thinking about your water heater until there’s no hot water for your morning shower. You’re not worried about that slow drain until it backs up completely the night before guests arrive. And you’re definitely not concerned about a small leak until you see water damage spreading across your ceiling.

Good plumbing means your day goes as planned. Bad plumbing derails it completely.

That’s why Los Altos homeowners call us when something goes wrong. You get licensed technicians who’ve seen it all, transparent pricing before any work starts, and repairs that actually last. No surprises on the bill. No return trips to fix the same problem. Just reliable plumbing services that let you get back to your life.

When we leave, your system works the way it should. That’s the outcome that matters.

Local Plumbing Contractor Los Altos Knows

Nearly 40 Years Serving Santa Clara County

All Fresh Temp started in 1985 as a family business. Ramiro’s father built the company on straightforward service and fair pricing. Ramiro took over in 2006 and kept that same approach.

We’ve been serving Los Altos homes for decades because we understand what matters here. Your home is likely worth several million dollars. You’re busy with demanding careers at companies like Google, Apple, or Facebook. You don’t have time for plumbing problems that drag on or contractors who don’t show up when they say they will.

Our team knows Los Altos. We know the older homes in the downtown area that need careful attention to aging pipes. We know the newer construction in the hills with modern systems. And we know that everyone here expects professional service without the runaround.

That’s what we deliver. Licensed technicians, upfront pricing, and plumbing work that holds up.

How Our Plumbing Contractor Works

Here's Exactly What Happens When You Call

First, you call or contact us with your plumbing issue. We ask a few questions to understand what’s happening and schedule a time that works for you. Same-day service is available for emergencies.

A licensed technician arrives at your home in Los Altos, CA. They assess the problem, explain what’s wrong in plain language, and give you an upfront price before starting any work. No hourly rates that climb. No surprise charges. You know the cost before we touch a wrench.

Once you approve, we get to work. Whether it’s leak detection, drain cleaning, pipe repair, or water heater replacement, we handle it efficiently. We clean up after ourselves and test everything to make sure it works properly.

Before we leave, we walk you through what we did and answer any questions. You get a clear invoice and the peace of mind that comes from working with a local plumber who’s been doing this for nearly 40 years.

About All Fresh Temp

Complete Plumbing Services Los Altos Residents Need

From Emergency Repairs to Full System Replacements

We handle the full range of plumbing work. Emergency repairs when a pipe bursts at 2 AM. Water heater repair or replacement when yours stops heating. Drain cleaning for stubborn clogs that won’t clear. Leak detection to find problems before they cause serious damage. Sewer line repair when you’re dealing with backups. And complete installation services when you’re renovating or building.

Los Altos homes face specific challenges. Many properties here are older, with plumbing systems that need careful maintenance. Water pressure issues are common in the hills. And with electricity costs in this area running nearly double the national average at 31.58 cents per kWh, an inefficient water heater hits your utility bill hard.

We also know that 86.9% of residents here live in single-family homes, most valued well over $4 million. That means plumbing problems aren’t just inconvenient—they risk real damage to a significant investment. A small leak left unchecked can lead to mold, structural damage, and repair costs that climb into tens of thousands.

That’s why we focus on catching problems early and fixing them completely. You’re not just getting a quick patch. You’re getting plumbing work that protects your home and keeps everything running smoothly for years.

How much does a plumber cost in Los Altos, CA?

We use job-based pricing, not hourly rates. That means you get a clear, upfront quote before we start any work.

The cost depends on what needs fixing. A simple drain cleaning might run a few hundred dollars. Water heater replacement could be several thousand, depending on the unit and installation complexity. Emergency repairs vary based on the problem and what parts are needed.

What matters is that you know the price before we begin. No watching the clock wondering what the final bill will be. No surprise charges when we’re done. Just transparent pricing so you can make an informed decision about your plumbing repair or installation.

Yes. Plumbing emergencies don’t wait for business hours, and neither do we.

We offer 24/7 emergency service for situations that can’t wait—burst pipes, major leaks, water heater failures, sewer backups, and anything else that’s causing immediate damage or disruption. When you call, you reach our team, not an answering service. We dispatch a licensed technician to your Los Altos home as quickly as possible.

Same-day service is available for urgent issues that aren’t quite middle-of-the-night emergencies but still need immediate attention. If your water heater stops working in the morning, we can often get someone there that afternoon. The goal is minimizing the disruption to your life and preventing small problems from becoming expensive disasters.

Yes. Every technician we send to your home is licensed, trained, and insured.

Licensing matters because it means the person working on your plumbing has met state requirements and knows what they’re doing. Insurance matters because it protects you if something goes wrong. You’re not taking on risk when we’re working in your home.

Our team has decades of combined experience with all types of plumbing systems. We invest in ongoing training so our technicians stay current with new technology, code requirements, and best practices. When someone from All Fresh Temp shows up, you’re getting a professional who knows how to diagnose problems accurately and fix them correctly the first time.

It depends entirely on what’s wrong. Simple repairs might take an hour. Complex jobs could take most of a day.

A clogged drain usually clears in 30 minutes to an hour. Fixing a leaking faucet or toilet might take an hour or two. Water heater replacement typically takes three to five hours, depending on the setup and whether we’re working with gas or electric. Sewer line repair can take anywhere from a few hours to a full day if we’re dealing with significant damage.

Here’s what we do know: we don’t drag jobs out. We work efficiently, and we give you a realistic timeframe upfront. If something takes longer than expected because we discover additional problems, we explain what’s happening and why before proceeding. Your time matters, and we respect that.

First, minimize the damage. If water is actively leaking, shut off the water supply to that fixture or, if necessary, the main water line to your house. The main shutoff is usually near your water meter or where the line enters your home.

If you’re dealing with a burst pipe, turn off the main water immediately and move anything valuable away from the water. For a water heater leak, shut off the water supply to the heater and turn off the power (breaker for electric, gas valve for gas units). For a sewer backup, stop using all water in the house—every flush and drain makes it worse.

Then call us. We’ll walk you through anything else you need to do while we dispatch an emergency plumber to your Los Altos home. The faster you act, the less damage occurs. And the faster you call, the faster we can get there to fix it properly.

Yes. We offer 15% discounts for seniors and military personnel.

These discounts apply to most plumbing services as our way of giving back to the community. If you qualify, just mention it when you call or when our technician arrives. We’ll apply the discount to your final invoice.

We don’t run constant promotions or gimmicky deals. Our pricing is fair from the start, and we’d rather be straightforward about what things cost than play games with inflated prices and fake discounts. The senior and military discounts are genuine—our way of saying thank you to people who’ve served their country or contributed to the community for decades.
