The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Botley
Our emergency line runs 24/7 for urgent breakdowns, from an overheating comms room to water leaking from a unit. Ring 07833 053749 with the make, what’s happening and any code and we’ll talk you through what happens next. If you are dealing with an error code or flashing light on the unit and weak airflow from the indoor unit, we can sort it out.
In a place like Botley, outdoor units can be close to hedges and gardens, and leaves or grass cuttings on the coil are a common reason for poor cooling. That’s one of the first things we check.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

FAQs for Botley
Will you come out to Botley?
Yes. Botley is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Botley?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Botley is one of the places it covers. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
How quickly will you reply?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
What causes ice on the indoor coil?
When airflow drops or refrigerant is lost, the coil gets cold enough to ice. A dirty filter is worth checking first, and if it’s clean, the system needs a diagnosis.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s, and the terms are theirs. Some terms depend on regular servicing by a qualified engineer so it’s worth keeping the service records.
My air con is showing an error code. What should I do?
An error code points us in the right direction, but it isn’t the whole answer. Write down the code and turn the unit off if it has stopped, then phone us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always look before we price, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. Then you get a fixed-price quote.

Air conditioning repairs in Botley: local notes
The 2021 Census found about 77% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Let us know where the outdoor unit sits and whether a ladder is needed to reach it. The Old Manor House, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 4 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Botley’s centre. Swapping an outdoor unit on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, so we will flag it if a replacement is needed.
The rating label on the unit gives the model number, which helps us bring the right parts. Schools such as Botley School can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term.

What happens on the day
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. On site, the work takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Everything the job in Botley needs is worked out beforehand.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- On the diagnosis visit, we test the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- We explain the cause in plain English and give you a fixed price.
- Once agreed, the repair goes ahead.
- It’s tested running, and the write-up is left with you.
How to prepare
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
How to get a quote

Advice
What the work involves, system by system
Condensate drains and pumps
The condensate drain is behind most indoor unit leaks. Drains block with dirt and growth, pipes get kinked and pumps fail, and a unit that isn’t level can spill water too.
VRF systems
VRF systems often hold enough refrigerant to need regular F-gas leak checks. Leak repairs are written into the F-Gas records, and the operator keeps the records.
What a customer said
“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.”
