Let and managed properties
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Every address has its own paperwork, so each one has its own history.
We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork and we’ll copy in whoever needs it.
Air conditioning repair around Broad Tenterden
The centre of Broad Tenterden lies within a conservation area. About 5 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Broad Tenterden, Chestnut House (grade II*) among them. Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first. About 69% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. If the outdoor unit is high up or behind a locked gate, mention it when you book.
The rating label on the unit gives the model number, which helps us bring the right parts. Schools such as Tenterden Church of England Junior School can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term.

Fixed-price quotes for air conditioning repair in Broad Tenterden
Typical ranges are on our prices page, and your quote is built on your job. The quote depends on:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
- The equipment or parts the job needs
One room or a whole building, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. The price is fixed before any work starts, with VAT shown clearly.
Before you get in touch
Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- The make and model of the system, from the label
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
Some jobs can be priced from pictures, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
Broad Tenterden: your questions answered
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Broad Tenterden?
Broad Tenterden is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
Is Broad Tenterden within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before you book anyone and we’ll gladly show you ours.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the job needs and how to do it, and the quote is based on that.
Why is water dripping from my indoor unit?
The condensate drain or pump is the usual cause: a blocked pipe, a kinked hose or a failed pump. Switch the unit off to avoid water damage, then call us.
What can I do with an old R22 system?
R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant, and new R22 can’t be used for servicing. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a leak typically makes replacement the sensible route. We will set out the options and quote for a replacement where it makes sense.
Why is my air conditioning showing a fault code?
Codes differ by brand, and the same code can cover several faults. Tell us the code, the make and the model, and we will diagnose the fault on site.
What air conditioning repair cannot fix
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what air conditioning repair will not do:
- An old system with obsolete parts
- A system that was undersized for the room in the first place (that needs a bigger system, not a repair)
- A power cut or a fault on the incoming supply to the building (that’s for the network operator)
Not sure which it is? You can call 07833 053749 and we will tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- VRF systems
- Heat pumps
- Multi-split systems
- Wall-mounted split systems
- Ceiling cassettes
- Ducted systems

- 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.

Preparing for the visit
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
