When air con fails in Godinton
The middle of Godinton is part of a conservation area. On the National Heritage List, around 6 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Godinton; Leacon Cottages (grade II) is one. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent. About 56% of homes in the Godinton area have been built since 2000, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures. Let us know where the outdoor unit sits and whether a ladder is needed to reach it.
The make, model and error code are the most useful things to tell us.

How we price air conditioning repair
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- The condition of any existing system
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.
Helping us quote
Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- A close-up of the unit’s label showing the model number
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. After a look at the job, by photos or a survey, the price is fixed. To get going, ring us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
The process
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. The visit takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Seeing the property in pictures first helps us plan the trip to Godinton.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- If the repair is not worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- Treat: carry out the repair, sealing any leak before refrigerant goes back in.
- Finally, a check that it’s working and a record of what we did.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
How to get a quote
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.
Advice
When to call us in Godinton
Rattles, buzzes and grinding sounds tend to be mechanical. Worn fan bearings, loose panels, debris in the outdoor fan or pipework vibrating against the building are common, and some noises point to the compressor.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
- A system that runs but does not cool the room
- Weak airflow from the indoor unit
For a school like Godinton Primary School, urgent repairs can be booked straight away and bigger work in the holidays.
What your quote should include
- Whose warranty applies, and on what terms
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
- How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected

What owners can safely do
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form.
