How we handle air conditioning repair in Gravel Castle
Not sure whether it’s worth calling an engineer? Check the filter, the mode, the set temperature and the remote’s batteries first, then give us a ring on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form if the problem is still there. We reply to enquiries the same working day. We are often asked to deal with water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling and a unit that won’t start, across heat pumps, ceiling cassettes and wall-mounted split systems.
Around Gravel Castle, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.

Why deal with it now?
Waiting for hot weather to see whether a fault sorts itself out rarely works. If the system is faulty now, it will be faulty in a heatwave, when you need it most and it’s easier to deal with before you depend on it. Booking before summer means the work in Gravel Castle is done before the hot weather.
Our prices page shows typical ranges, but your price depends on the job in front of us. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

FAQs for Gravel Castle
Will you come out to Gravel Castle?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Do you cover Gravel Castle for air conditioning repair?
Yes, Gravel Castle is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant, and new R22 can’t be used for servicing. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a leak normally makes replacement the sensible route. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that’s the answer.
How much is an air conditioning call-out?
The first step is a diagnosis, from £75 + VAT, followed by a fixed price for the repair. Nothing goes ahead without your agreement.
Do you work on all makes?
We work with the leading brands, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we’ll take it from there.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.

“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.”
