About our air conditioning repair in Bobbing
Not sure whether it’s worth calling an engineer? A quick check of the filter, settings and remote can rule out the simple causes, and if that doesn’t fix it, ring 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form. You’ll hear back from us the same working day. If the problem is ice on the pipework or the coil and a fault code on the display, we can help.
Around Bobbing, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

After we’ve gone
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Only let an F-Gas qualified engineer work on the refrigerant
- Let any ice thaw before the engineer arrives
- Keep to the service interval the manufacturer recommends
After the repair, the system is run and checked in every mode it has. We confirm it’s working properly and look for anything else that needs attention and point out anything else we spotted.
Small changes are worth acting on. A drip, a new noise, a weaker airflow or an occasional error code is often the first sign of a fault and catching it early keeps the repair simpler.
Air conditioning repairs in Bobbing: local notes
At about 3 miles from the coast, Bobbing is close enough for sea air to matter. On a coastal repair, we look at the outdoor unit for corrosion as well as the fault you called about. The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures show about 41% of homes in the Bobbing area were built in 2000 or later. Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Bobbing and it takes in 2 conservation areas. On the National Heritage List, around 3 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Bobbing; Church of St Bartholomew (grade I) is one. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building.
Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller. For a school like Grove Park Primary School, urgent repairs can be booked straight away and bigger work in the holidays.
Bobbing is about 2 miles west of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Bobbing gets the same approach as every job we take on: diagnosis first, a fixed price and proper paperwork when we’ve finished. Bobbing is one of 922 towns, villages and districts in Kent where we work for homes and businesses. We also work in Bromley, about 30 miles from Bobbing.

Different systems, different jobs
Fans and compressors
Fan motors and bearings wear over time, often starting with a noise or weaker airflow. Indoor and outdoor fan motors can typically be replaced where the parts are available.
Refrigerant leaks
If the charge is low, there’s a leak somewhere. We find it, repair it, pressure test the circuit, evacuate it and recharge to the manufacturer’s charge, and the work is recorded in the F-Gas records.
What we do, step by step
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. The visit takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Somewhere like Bobbing, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- Diagnosis comes first: codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- Prescribe: tell you the cause and the fixed cost of the cure.
- Where a repair does not make sense, you’ll hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- Treat: carry out the repair, sealing any leak before refrigerant goes back in.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need

Advice
Common questions in Bobbing
Will you come out to Bobbing?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Bobbing?
It can, as Bobbing is within about 3 miles 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.
How long does the visit take?
The work itself takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Bigger or more complicated systems take longer, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Can you repair an R22 air conditioning system?
Servicing with new R22 is not allowed, because it depletes the ozone layer. A fault that doesn’t involve the refrigerant may still be repairable, depending on parts, but a refrigerant leak normally means replacement. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that is the answer.
Why is my air conditioning leaking water?
In most cases, it’s the condensate system: a blocked pipe, a kinked hose or a failed pump. Switch the unit off to avoid water damage, then call us.
Do you offer an emergency repair service?
Yes, day and night. Urgent cases include water leaking through a ceiling or a server or comms room overheating, and we will advise on what to do right away. Call 07833 053749.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.

Why it’s worth doing now in Bobbing
Refrigerant supply is changing. R410A systems can still be repaired legally, though the GB phase-down is making R410A harder and dearer to buy and we weigh that up when we advise you. A system that is left with a fault, or without a service, typically costs more to run.
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Ask for a fixed-price quote and we will explain each part.
