How the visit works
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: look, put right and sign off. First we check the system or the space against the plan, then the work itself, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, which takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Everything the job in Donnington needs is worked out beforehand.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- Where a repair doesn’t make sense, you will hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- Then the fix, with leaks repaired before any refrigerant is added.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Preparing for the visit
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Clear access to the fuse board

Advice
Questions from Donnington
Is Donnington within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Donnington?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Donnington. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
How does the warranty work?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while larger systems and faults that need testing are seen on site.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before you book and we will gladly show you ours.
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’ll test the system to confirm the cause.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We work on systems fitted by other installers as well as our own from all the leading brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Do you need air conditioning repair in Donnington?
Some faults stop the unit completely: a failed fan motor, a fault on a circuit board, a damaged cable between the units or a tripped circuit. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call us.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- A system that needs topping up again
- Frost on the pipework
- A unit that will not start
If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the quote shows VAT clearly
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
- Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
Why deal with it now?
Faults do not fix themselves. If the system is faulty now, it will be faulty in a heatwave, when you need it most, so it’s worth having it diagnosed while you can plan the repair. Planning ahead for a job near Donnington means we can arrive with everything needed.
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.

- One contact for properties across the South East and London

How the job changes from property to property
Circuit boards and sensors
We test sensors and boards before replacing them because swapping parts on a guess wastes money. Some parts need ordering from the manufacturer and we’ll explain any wait.
Refrigerant leaks
A low refrigerant charge always means a leak. The leak is found and fixed, then the circuit is tested, evacuated and recharged, and the work is recorded in the F-Gas records.
