About our air conditioning repair in Aldrington
Faults on all the leading makes are part of our everyday work, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. It doesn’t matter who installed it and the make and model help us prepare. Typical jobs include water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling and a noisy indoor or outdoor unit, on wall-mounted split systems, ducted systems and multi-split systems.
We prepare for a visit to Aldrington from the make and model you give us, and any part that needs ordering is priced before it’s fitted.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Aldrington: your questions answered
Does sea air affect air conditioning in Aldrington?
It can, as Aldrington is within about 1 mile of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. We look for corroded coils, fixings and connections on coastal repairs.
Do you cover Aldrington for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Aldrington. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we will talk you through what happens next.
Why is my air conditioning icing up?
Ice is a symptom of low airflow or low refrigerant. Blocked filters, a failing fan or a leak are the common causes. Turn it off, let the ice melt and give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.
Which brands do you work with?
Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Hitachi and others. For a new system, we suggest the make and model that suit the property and tell you why.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.
How long will you be on site?
It depends on the job, but most of the time it takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. We’ll confirm it with the quote.
Air conditioning repair around Aldrington
At about 1 mile from the coast, Aldrington is close enough for sea air to matter. Coastal outdoor units can suffer from corroded coils and terminals, which can lead to poor cooling or trips. Valuation Office Agency council tax records put about 43% of homes across Aldrington and its surrounding area before 1919. Let us know where the outdoor unit sits and whether a ladder is needed to reach it. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Aldrington and it takes in 3 conservation areas. Church Hall of St Peter's Roman Catholic Church, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 7 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Aldrington’s centre. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building.
For a school like Hove Junior School, urgent repairs can be booked right away and bigger work in the holidays.

We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to and we’ll copy in whoever needs it.
The process
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we keep you posted if anything changes. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your photos or the details you gave us. If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. In a place like Aldrington, parking is rarely an issue, but tell us about gates and access to the back of the property.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- Where a repair does not make sense, you’ll hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- Then the fix, with leaks repaired before any refrigerant is added.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

What air conditioning repair can’t fix
Air conditioning repair can’t fix everything, and we’ll tell you before we start. It will not put right:
- A power cut or a fault on the incoming supply to the building (that’s for the network operator)
- A system that was undersized for the room in the first place (that needs a bigger system, not a repair)
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 cannot be used for servicing, so replacement is usually the answer)
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 07833 053749 and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
