Crayford: your questions answered
Do you cover Crayford for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Crayford. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Do you cover Crayford for air conditioning repair?
Yes. Crayford is one of the places we cover. Just call 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few details.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and AirCon Doctor is certified.
When will I hear back?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. If it’s an emergency, ring the 24/7 line instead.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
Why is there ice on my air conditioning pipes?
It typically points to poor airflow or a refrigerant leak. A clogged filter, a fan problem or a leak are typical. Switch the system off, let it thaw and call us on 07833 053749 or send an email.

When it’s something else
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- An R22 system that has lost its refrigerant
- Heat gains the system was never designed for
- An old system with obsolete parts
If in doubt, phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Where we work
- Ducted systems
- VRF systems
- Ceiling cassettes
- Wall-mounted split systems
- Heat pumps
- Multi-split systems
Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is straightforward, and it helps at the next service:
- If the breaker trips twice, leave it off
- Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and clutter
- Have the system serviced once a year
If a repair does not make sense, you’ll hear it from us, and explain why. If replacement is the better option, we can quote for it on the same visit.
Don’t ignore early signs. A drip, a new noise, a weaker airflow or an occasional error code is often the first sign of a fault, and early diagnosis normally means a smaller repair.
