Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Gallows Corner
Across Gallows Corner, every repair begins with a diagnosis: fault codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant are all checked. After that, you get a plain explanation and a fixed price for the repair. Common call-outs are for a fault code on the display and a unit blowing warm air, across heat pumps, ducted systems and ceiling cassettes.
In Gallows Corner, as across London, air conditioning works hard in hot spells, and that’s when faults show: weak cooling, water leaks, error codes or a unit that will not start. The error code on the display, the make and the model are the most useful things to send us.
The records are your system’s health record: a dated account of the work and the readings we took. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer, so keep it safe.

What air conditioning won’t do
In fairness, some problems need a different answer:
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 cannot be used for servicing, so replacement is typically the answer)
- A unit that was never big enough for the room
- A supply fault outside the property
If in doubt, call us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we will say what we think.

How the visit works
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 as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. The more we can see beforehand, the smoother the visit to Gallows Corner will be.
- It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
- On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
- Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
- With your agreement the part is replaced or the fault put right, and refrigerant work goes in the F-Gas log.
- We run the system, check it’s working properly and note anything else that needs attention.
How to prepare
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand

What the work involves, system by system
Circuit boards and sensors
Boards and sensors are the system’s nervous system. 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.
Ducted and cassette systems
Ducted units and cassettes sit above the ceiling and access is part of the job. Many have condensate pumps, and pump failures are a common cause of ceiling leaks.
Questions from Gallows Corner
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Gallows Corner?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Gallows Corner. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we will talk you through what happens next.
Is Gallows Corner in your area for air conditioning repair?
Yes, Gallows Corner is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
No, not the refrigerant side. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Why isn’t my air con cooling?
It could be a dirty filter, the wrong settings, a blocked outdoor unit, a sensor or board fault, or a refrigerant leak. Check the filter and the settings first, and if that does not fix it, ring 07833 053749.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
How long does the work take?
The work itself takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Larger systems naturally take longer, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Which accreditations do you hold?
F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, and we’re Checkatrade members. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.
