The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. All we ask is clear access to the units, or to where they’ll go, and to the consumer unit. The visit takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Work in Farley Hill is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- You describe the fault, the make and any error code, ideally with a photo.
- At the property, readings and tests narrow the problem down to its cause.
- Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
- The fix goes in, with any refrigerant work tested and written into the F-Gas records.
- We run the system, check it’s working properly and note anything else that needs attention.
How to prepare
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow

About our air conditioning repair in Farley Hill

Ring 07833 053749 with the make, what’s happening and any code and we will talk you through what happens next. The work covers ducted systems, VRF systems and heat pumps, and common reasons people get in touch are air conditioning running but not cooling and water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling.

Farley Hill questions
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Farley Hill out of hours?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Farley Hill. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
Is Farley Hill within the area you cover?
Yes. Farley Hill is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
Normally a blocked or kinked condensate drain, a failed condensate pump or a unit that isn’t level. Ice that forms on the coil and melts can cause drips too. Switch the unit off and give us a ring on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Are you F-Gas certified?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, and we’re Checkatrade members. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Any drilling is agreed with you first, and we clear up the dust and offcuts before we leave.
How does the warranty work?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some brands make regular servicing a condition, so keep your service records.

What owners can safely do
Do not move, re-route or disconnect units or pipework yourself. Disconnecting a system means dealing with refrigerant, which only a qualified engineer can do, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
What the work involves, system by system
Refrigerant leaks
Topping up without finding the leak only delays the next breakdown, and it releases more refrigerant into the air. We always find and fix the leak first.
Circuit boards and sensors
Circuit boards and temperature sensors control how the system runs. A failed sensor can make a unit stop, run oddly or show an error code and boards can fail with age or after electrical problems.

What else we do in Farley Hill
Why deal with it now?
For a newer system, a fault may be covered on the manufacturer’s terms. Tell us the make, model and install date and we will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply first. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
Putting several jobs into one visit can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every unit or room you need covered, and you will get one fixed price.
