About our air conditioning repair in Dunkirk

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 and nothing goes ahead without your say-so. We’re often asked to deal with water dripping from the indoor unit and a system that needs topping up again, on ceiling cassettes, wall-mounted split systems and VRF systems.

We plan the trip to Dunkirk so the repair can be finished in one visit where possible, unless a part has to come from the manufacturer.

Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, with longer extensions only on its air-to-water heat pumps. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

Why deal with it now?

If your air conditioning in Dunkirk has developed a fault, it’s worth booking a diagnosis now. It takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts, and you get a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead, with a 24/7 line for emergencies. A system that’s left with a fault, or without a service, normally costs more to run.

Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: what’s needed, how we reach it, the parts and the labour. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will explain each part.

What we do, step by step

Our engineers bring the tools, gauges and access equipment the job needs. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. On site, the work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Dunkirk.

  1. First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
  2. On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
  3. Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
  4. We repair the fault, and where refrigerant is involved, the leak is found and fixed before recharging.
  5. Finally the system is tested in operation and you get a note of the fault and the fix.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
  • Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
  • Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Questions from Dunkirk

Will you come out to Dunkirk?

Yes. Dunkirk is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.

Is there an emergency air con repair line for Dunkirk?

Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Dunkirk. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we will talk you through what happens next.

What does the error code on my air conditioning mean?

Codes differ by brand, and the same code can cover several faults. Send us a photo of the display with the make and model, and we’ll diagnose the fault on site.

Why is my air conditioning leaking water?

Most leaks come from a blocked drain, a failed pump or a unit that has dropped out of level. Ice that forms on the coil and melts can cause drips too. Turn it off and ring us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.

How does the warranty work?

Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. Daikin, for example, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.

How do you keep the place clean during the work?

We start with protection: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts when we finish.

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.

When to call us in Dunkirk

Leaks tend to start where pipes are joined: joints, valves and sections of pipe worn by vibration or damage. Coils can corrode and leak too and many leaks are slow enough to go unnoticed for a while.

What we are most often called about:

  • A system that will not switch on
  • Frost on the pipework
  • An error code or flashing light on the unit

Many breakdowns start small, with a drip, a smell or a unit that takes longer to cool.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether you get F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved
  • Whether the company is F-Gas certified, and whether you can check it
  • Whose warranty applies, and on what terms

How to choose an air conditioning engineer

What affects the cost of air conditioning repair

You’ll get a fixed price before work begins. It’s based on:

  • What state the existing equipment is in
  • How many units are involved
  • The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed

Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

What to send for a quote

When you call or email, these details help:

  • The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
  • The remote or wall controller showing any error
  • The address and the type of property

Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your photos and details. Then you get a fixed price before any work starts.
