What the work involves, system by system
Multi-split systems
With several pipe runs, finding a leak on a multi-split takes method. Each run is checked, then repair, pressure test and recharge.
VRF systems
On larger VRF systems, the refrigerant charge can be big enough to need regular leak checks under the F-gas rules. Leak repairs are written into the F-Gas records for the operator’s records.
Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Bexley
Refrigerant doesn’t get used up, so if it’s low, there’s a leak. Simply adding gas means it will leak away again. We find and fix the leak, pressure test, evacuate and recharge to the manufacturer’s charge, then record it in the F-Gas records. The work covers heat pumps, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems, and people most often call us about frost on the pipework and a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room.
In a London area like Bexley, a lot of the systems we repair serve flats and small offices, where the outdoor unit may be on a balcony, a rear wall or the roof. Knowing where the outdoor unit sits, and how to get to it, helps us plan the repair.
Aftercare is simple, and most of it is in the manual: keep the outdoor unit clear, follow the manufacturer’s guidance on cleaning and book a service at the interval they recommend. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

Leave it or put it right?
Small faults rarely stay small. A blocked drain becomes water damage, and a slow leak drains the refrigerant until the compressor is working far harder than it should and early diagnosis typically keeps the repair simpler. Allow time for any approvals your building in Bexley needs.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you’re not sure what’s needed, phone 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will give you an honest view and a fixed price.

The process
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we have done. Photos of the room and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan most of a visit to Bexley in advance.
- 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 will hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- The treatment: the repair itself, with any leak found and fixed before recharging.
- Sign off: prove it works and record the visit.
How to prepare
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

Bexley: your questions answered
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Bexley?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Bexley. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
Do you cover Bexley for air conditioning repair?
Yes, Bexley is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, typically whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
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.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
Each manufacturer decides. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
Air conditioning repair around Bexley
Roughly a third of a mile or less from central Bexley, you reach the Parkhurst Conservation Area. There are 4 conservation areas within a mile of the centre of Bexley. Historic England lists about 3 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Bexley, including Parish Church of St John the Evangelist (grade II). Day-to-day work on an existing system isn’t affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be.

Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned. In London buildings, outdoor units can be on roofs or in light wells, so let us know where yours is.
Schools such as Old Bexley Church of England School can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term. Near Bexley station, as anywhere, a photo of the error code on the controller is the quickest way to start a repair.

Safe owner checks
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
Don’t move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrics need care too. If you need something moved, we can quote for it.

“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.”
