Do you need air conditioning repair in Ballards Gore?
Some faults stop the unit completely: fan motors, boards, interconnecting cables and tripped breakers. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call us.
Customers normally contact us when they notice something like this:
- New noises from the system
- A system that runs but doesn’t cool the room
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
When cooling fails at a school like King Edmund School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons.
Questions to ask before booking
- If the figure could change on the day
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
How we handle air conditioning repair in Ballards Gore
Any repair we carry out in Ballards Gore starts the same way: fault codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant are all checked. Then we explain what’s wrong and give you a fixed price to put it right. If you’re dealing with a system that needs topping up again and a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room, we can help.
We plan the trip to Ballards Gore so the repair can be finished in one visit where possible, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. File it with the manual, because it helps with any later warranty question.

When it’s something else
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- A system that was undersized for the room in the first place (that needs a bigger system, not a repair)
- A room that overheats because of the building, such as a lack of shading or ventilation (the system may need help, not a repair)
- A leak on an old R22 system
Not sure which it is? You can ring us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Wall-mounted split systems
- Heat pumps
- Ducted systems
- Ceiling cassettes
- Multi-split systems
- VRF systems
The process
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. On site, it takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Work in Ballards Gore is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- The engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant circuit.
- Nothing is repaired until you’ve heard what’s wrong and agreed a fixed price.
- With your agreement the part is replaced or the fault put right, and refrigerant work goes in the F-Gas log.
- Before leaving, we run it through its modes and write up what was found and done.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go

Advice
System by system
Ducted and cassette systems
With ducted and cassette units, most of the system is hidden in the ceiling and access is part of the job. Many have condensate pumps, and pump failures are a common cause of ceiling leaks.
Multi-split systems
A multi-split links several indoor units to one outdoor unit, so we check whether the fault is in one room or the shared outdoor unit. It tells us where to look first.

Why does my air conditioning run but not cool?
There are several possible causes, from simple to serious. We read any fault code and test the system to find which and you get a fixed price before the repair.
Do you have a 24/7 line for breakdowns?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that can’t wait. Call 07833 053749 and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and we will agree the next steps with you.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Send us the make and model, and any records you have.
Is it legal to repair an R410A system?
Yes. Repairing and recharging existing R410A systems is still legal. R410A is getting scarcer and dearer to buy as the GB phase-down tightens and we talk through repair against replacement for older systems.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It depends on the manufacturer’s terms. Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of the warranty, so check the terms or ask us. Either way, keep a record of every service.
