I have old plumbing and get my drains cleared once a year to avoid other problems. I gave Total Plumbing Air and Electric a try and I was impressed with their service. Good customer service is hard to find these days and they were friendly and got the job done in a timely manner. I was happy and I definitely recommend them.

A friend recommended Total Plumbing Air Electric to me and they did not disappoint. I had all of the plumbing in my house backing up through the drains. From the very beginning, they were prompt, friendly, professional, and fairly priced. Gabe was the plumber who came out to help me, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He patiently listened while I explained everything that was happening, then took the time to explain what he believed was causing the problem and what he was going to do to fix it. He got right to work and was able to resolve the issue. Everything is back to normal—the drains are flowing properly and the water is running as it should. Gabe was knowledgeable, respectful, and got the job done. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing plumbing help. Thank you, Gabe, and Total Plumbing Air Electric, for the great service!

They explained everything clearly, did quality work, and made sure everything was taken care of before leaving. It’s hard to find a company that’s reliable and doesn’t make you feel pressured or rushed. I would definitely recommend Total Plumbing Air Electric and will use them again in the future.

I would recommend Total Plumbing First visit was Rami Who was very friendly and professional he worked hard and spent the day trying to unclog the drain. we realized it was up on the street so believing we needed to call city for repairs after finding the location I paid him the service call fee for all his hard work. WE found out city would not repair and call him back out to finish the job. He sent out 2 men who the finished the job a day later. The gentlemen sent out were both friendly and professional I apologize for not remembering their names. After dealing with 3 members of this company and have my repairs made, I can say I am happy with their service and will be using them in the future

They were sent to my home to repair a ceiling fan that that had stopped working. They found the motor had burned out, charged me for the service call and then informed my insurance company that the problem was my wiring and that I need to have my house rewired. That was a total lie. They did not look at my panel at all, all they did was to verify that there was live power to the fan motor and lighting. I have spent over 40 years of construction and have dealt with hundreds of contractors. I would not let these people change a light bulb. I intend to file a complaint with the CSLB. No company with a moral compass that is this devious should be allowed to own a license.

Such a fantastic company, so professional and helped me with my plumbing and electrical issues. I had two other people come prior who could not solve the problem, and 'Total Plumbing, Air & Electric', was able to solve it for me. So grateful! Highly recommend!!

My project started as a DIY replacement of a wall switch. But after I realized that I couldn't finish the wire management, I called a professional. Rami came out quickly and assessed the situation. He quoted a good price and finished the job really fast. He took over the wiring mess I started and figured it all out. Now, both switches work, and the dimmer dims magnificently.

Great service and pricing! Rami was responsive and sent me an upfront estimate for the job and called me to discuss it. Very much appreciated. Gabriel and Christian were excellent!! They were on-time, professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. We had several faucets replaced and new angle stops installed as well. I am thrilled to have found a new plumber. I will definitely be using them again. Thank you!!

Recently moved in to a new house and had found multiple dead outlets. Tried troubleshooting myself but couldn't figure it out. One call here and I had working outlets not even an hour later. Pleasure to do business with, won't hesitate to call again when I surely will find more things that need fixing.

When hot water disappears, most property owners want two things: fast restoration and confidence the new system won’t create another problem next month.

Water heaters often warn you before they fail, but the signs get missed until the system stops working or starts leaking. We’re often called for hot water heater installation in san diego when property owners notice:
This often points to a failing unit or a system that can’t keep up with demand.
Even small leaks can lead to flooring damage and corrosion at fittings.
This can be a sign the unit is deteriorating internally and may be nearing failure.
Noise typically signals internal wear and reduced efficiency, especially in older units.
If the problem keeps returning, replacement may be more reliable than repeat patch repairs.
If you’re planning ahead, replacing before a major leak can prevent an emergency.

After installation, we verify heat-up performance, check for leaks, and confirm stable operation before we leave. We also make sure the system is producing hot water properly at fixtures, not just “turning on.”
We explain what caused the failure, what early warning signs to watch for, and how to reduce repeat issues. This includes practical tips that help protect your investment and maintain stable hot water over time.
