Compton questions
Will you come out to Compton?
Yes. Compton is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Can you do air conditioning repair in Compton?
Yes, Compton is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Terms differ by brand, and we set them out on your quote.
My system uses R410A. Can it still be repaired?
Yes. Any leak is repaired before recharging, and the work is recorded and we will give you an honest view on whether it’s worth it.
My air con is showing an error code. What should I do?
An error code points us in the right direction, but testing confirms the cause. Note the code and switch the system off if it is not working, and call us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Will you work on another installer’s system?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
How we handle air conditioning repair in Compton
Faults on all the leading makes are part of our everyday work, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. It does not matter who installed it, so tell us the make and model if you know it. If the problem is poor airflow even with clean filters and rattling, buzzing or grinding noises, we can sort it out.
A visit to Compton is planned so we can usually finish in one go, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

How we price air conditioning repair
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
- The brand, model and parts involved
Leaving a fault or an overdue service rarely makes the work cheaper. Faults and wear in a system tend to grow, and a struggling system uses more electricity to do less. If you are unsure, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed price.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Useful things to send:
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- Your installation or service records
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
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, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
What air conditioning won’t do
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 cannot be used for servicing, so replacement is normally the answer)
- A power cut or a fault on the incoming supply to the building (that is for the network operator)
- A building problem rather than a system fault
If in doubt, ring us on 07833 053749 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- VRF systems
- Wall-mounted split systems
- Ceiling cassettes
- Multi-split systems
- Ducted systems
- Heat pumps
Why it’s worth doing now in Compton
If your system uses R22, the options are narrower. R22 depletes the ozone layer, and servicing with new R22 isn’t allowed, which normally makes replacement the sensible route after a refrigerant fault. We explain why and quote for a new system if that is the right answer. Dealing with it now is normally simpler than a breakdown later.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is looked at first, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.

Census 2021 figures found about 83% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs. Compton’s centre is no more than about a third of a mile from the Compton Conservation Area. On the National Heritage List, around 12 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Compton; Church of St Mary and St Nicholas (grade II*) 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.
For a school like Compton C.E. Primary School, urgent repairs can be booked right away and bigger work in the holidays. A photo of the error code and the unit’s rating label helps us plan the repair.

The process
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Compton.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Prescribe: tell you the cause and the fixed cost of the cure.
- Where a repair doesn’t make sense, you will hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- The treatment: the repair itself, with any leak found and fixed before recharging.
- Finally, a check that it’s working and a record of what we did.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
