Air conditioning repair in Dean, done properly
A diagnosis call-out is from £75 + VAT. Once we know the cause, you get a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead, so you can decide with the facts in front of you. If you are dealing with a flashing light and a system that won’t run and a unit that has lost refrigerant, we can help.
A visit to Dean is planned so we can typically finish in one go, unless a part has to come from the manufacturer.
The records are your system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. It makes the next visit quicker and any warranty question simpler, so keep it safe.

What air conditioning won’t do
Not every problem is solved by air conditioning repair, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 cannot be used for servicing, so replacement is usually the answer)
- A unit whose parts are no longer made (replacement may be the only option)
- Cooling that falls short because the system is too small
If you’re not sure, just call 07833 053749 or send an email and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Dean: your questions answered
Do you cover Dean for air conditioning repair?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Dean is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Do you cover Dean for emergency air conditioning repairs?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Dean is one of the places it covers. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we’ll advise on the next step.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
Replacement is typically the better answer. R22 can’t be topped up with new gas, and parts for old models are scarce, so we will quote for a modern replacement and explain why.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.
Are you F-Gas certified?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.
Rented and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed-price quote.
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. Where a building is let or managed, the lease or contract should make clear who looks after the system, and we can work for either side.
Do you need air conditioning repair in Dean?
Water dripping from an indoor unit is usually about the condensate. A blocked or kinked drain, a failed pump or a unit that isn’t level are the usual causes, while ice that forms on the coil and then melts can also cause drips.
If any of these sounds familiar, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A unit that won’t start
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- A noisy indoor or outdoor unit
The make, model and error code are the most useful things to tell us.
Before booking anyone
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
- If the quote is based on a survey, photos or a diagnosis

The process
Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. On site, it takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Photos of the room and the outside of the property help us plan a visit to Dean.
- Describe the problem and the brand, and mention any code on the display.
- The engineer diagnoses the fault on site, testing rather than guessing.
- The fault is explained simply and the repair priced up front.
- Once agreed, the repair goes ahead.
- The system is run and checked, and you get a written note of the repair.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Tell us about parking and loading
