How we handle air conditioning repair in Badlesmere
Wondering whether the fault is something simple? Check the filter, the mode, the set temperature and the remote’s batteries first, and if that does not fix it, phone 07833 053749 or email us. We reply to enquiries the same working day. If you’re dealing with frost on the pipework and a system that won’t switch on, we can sort it out.
In a village like Badlesmere, most air conditioning we repair is in homes, garden rooms and the occasional pub or village business. A photo of the unit’s label and a description of the fault help us plan.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Rented and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit is written up, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
We also work for facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings in Badlesmere and across Kent. Larger buildings can be done in stages around the people who use them.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is straightforward, and it helps at the next service:
- Book an annual service after the repair
- Check the filter, the mode and the set temperature before calling us
- If the breaker trips twice, leave it off
Where a repair isn’t worth doing, we say so, with the reasons. We can quote for a replacement system on the same visit where that’s the better answer.
Filter cleaning is the simplest prevention there is. Clogged filters starve the unit of air, and that can cause ice, drips and poor performance and the manual shows how to clean them.
What owners can safely do
Keep a note of anything odd: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and ring us on 07833 053749 or email us.
The process
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. The middle part takes longest, which takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Visits to Badlesmere are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- You tell us the symptoms, the make and any error code.
- A diagnosis visit finds the cause with proper tests.
- We explain the cause in plain English and give you a fixed price.
- Once you are happy, the repair is done and any refrigerant work recorded.
- It’s tested running, and the write-up is left with you.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

My system uses R410A. Can it still be repaired?
Yes. Repairing and recharging existing R410A systems is still legal. As the GB phase-down continues, R410A is getting harder and dearer to buy and we talk through repair against replacement for older systems.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Why is my air conditioning icing up?
The coil gets too cold when air can’t move across it or when the refrigerant charge is low. A dirty filter is worth checking first, and if it’s clean, the system needs a diagnosis.
What accreditations do you have?
We’re an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We are members of Checkatrade too.
What does an air con repair cost?
It starts with a diagnosis call-out from £75 + VAT, followed by a fixed price for the repair. You decide before any repair work starts.

“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
