About our air conditioning repair in Cholsey
A diagnosis call-out is from £75 + VAT. When the cause is found, the repair is priced before anything else is done and nothing goes ahead without your say-so. We’re often asked to deal with a unit that has lost refrigerant and ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes, across multi-split systems, ceiling cassettes and heat pumps.
For a repair near Cholsey, we bring the common parts and tools for the make you have, and any part that needs ordering is priced before it’s fitted.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

After we have gone
So the system stays in good health:
- Check the settings and the remote’s batteries first
- Leave a tripping breaker off and call us
- Clear debris away from the outdoor fan
You get a note of the fault and what we did: the cause, the parts fitted and any refrigerant added or recovered. Any refrigerant work is recorded in the F-Gas records and it belongs with the system’s paperwork.
Give the outdoor unit space. Anything blocking the outdoor unit makes the whole system strain, and debris can get into the fan.

What a repair looks like in Cholsey
About 42% of homes across Cholsey and its surrounding area have been built since 2000, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 72% 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. About 27 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Cholsey, Holly Cottage (grade II) among them. 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.
Near Cholsey station, as anywhere, a photo of the error code on the controller is the quickest way to start a repair. When cooling fails at a school like Cholsey Primary School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons.

What happens on the day
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, which takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Around Cholsey, access is typically simple, though gates and garden access are worth mentioning.
- Diagnosis comes first: codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- Next, a plain explanation and a fixed price.
- If the repair isn’t worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- The treatment: the repair itself, with any leak found and fixed before recharging.
- Sign off: prove it works and record the visit.
Getting ready for the visit
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Common questions in Cholsey
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Cholsey?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Cholsey is one of the places it covers. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Do you cover Cholsey for air conditioning repair?
Yes, Cholsey is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Why is my air conditioning showing a fault code?
Each manufacturer uses its own codes, and one code can have more than one cause. Tell us the code, the make and the model, and we will diagnose the fault on site.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is the law, not just our preference, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
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.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
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.
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.”
