Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Gosport
We treat a faulty system the way a doctor treats a patient: diagnose the cause, treat it properly and sign it off when it’s working. Guesswork costs money, and replacing a board when the fault is a sensor leaves the problem in place. The work covers heat pumps, wall-mounted split systems and ducted systems, and common reasons people get in touch are a flashing light and a system that won’t run and a unit that has lost refrigerant.
For a repair in Gosport, a photo of the error code and the unit’s rating label is a great start. We can then see the make, model and refrigerant, which helps us plan.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual, because it helps with any later warranty question.

How the job changes from property to property
Condensate drains and pumps
The condensate drain is behind most indoor unit leaks. Drains block with dirt and growth, pipes get kinked and pumps fail, and a unit that has dropped out of level can leak.
Ducted and cassette systems
Ducted units and cassettes sit above the ceiling and access is part of the job. Condensate pumps are common on both, and a failed pump is a frequent cause of water leaks.
What affects the quote in Gosport
The survey or diagnosis tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
- The pipe route between the units
- Whether we need access equipment for high-level work
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.
What we need to know
A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it

How the visit works
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Access to the outdoor unit position is the main thing to tell us about in Gosport.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- On the diagnosis visit, we test the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant.
- We explain the cause in plain English and give you a fixed price.
- With your go-ahead, we carry out the repair, recording any refrigerant work.
- It’s tested running, and the write-up is left with you.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Mention any managing agent or landlord rules we need to follow
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
Getting a price
Getting a quote is straightforward. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
Advice
When to call us in Gosport
When the fan runs but the air isn’t cold, there are some common causes: a blocked filter, the wrong mode or set temperature, an outdoor unit that can’t breathe, a failed sensor or board, or low refrigerant from a leak. Diagnosis narrows it down.
It’s time to call us if you are dealing with:
- A noisy indoor or outdoor unit
- A unit that won’t start
- Air conditioning running but not cooling
A photo of the error code and the unit’s rating label helps us plan the repair.
Comparing quotes
- Whether they hold F-Gas company certification, not just individual qualifications
- Whether they looked at the job before pricing it

Questions from Gosport
Is Gosport in your area for air conditioning repair?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Gosport is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Is the coast a problem for outdoor units in Gosport?
It can. Gosport is within about 2 miles of the coast, and salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor units. We look for corroded coils, fixings and connections on coastal repairs.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That’s a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
How much does an air conditioning repair cost?
A diagnosis call-out is from £75 + VAT. When we’ve found the fault, the repair is priced before we do it. The final cost depends on the fault, the parts and the access.
Can you come out for an emergency air conditioning repair?
Yes, day and night. Urgent cases include water leaking through a ceiling or a server or comms room overheating and we’ll tell you what to do first. The number is 07833 053749.
Does servicing affect my warranty?
It can, for some brands. Send us the make and model and we’ll tell you what the manufacturer expects and stick to the interval they set.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
In most cases, we recommend replacement. New R22 can’t be used to service systems, and parts for older units are getting harder to find, so a new system on a modern refrigerant is usually the better investment.
Air conditioning repairs in Gosport: local notes
At about 2 miles from the coast, Gosport is close enough for sea air to matter. Salt air speeds up corrosion on outdoor coils and connections, which is one of the things we check on a repair. About 38% of homes in Gosport and the neighbourhoods around it were built between the wars, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and Census 2021 figures found about 49% of households in terraced houses. Terraced homes rarely have side access, so say whether we reach the back through the house, a garage or a rear lane.
When cooling fails at a school like Brockhurst Primary School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons.

From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
