Air conditioning repair in Graveley, done properly

We treat a faulty system the way a doctor treats a patient: find the cause, put it right and check it’s healthy before we leave. Guessing is expensive, and replacing a board when the fault is a sensor leaves the problem in place. We are often asked to deal with a system that keeps cutting out and frost on the pipework, across ceiling cassettes, ducted systems and wall-mounted split systems.

Around Graveley, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.

We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

Questions from Graveley

Do you cover smaller places like Graveley?

We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.

Can you do air conditioning repair in Graveley?

Yes. Graveley is one of the places we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.

Do you look at the job first?

Yes. Every job is looked at first, either on a site survey or from pictures and details for simple jobs. Then you get a fixed-price quote.

How long does the visit take?

Your quote will say how long we expect to be there. As a guide, the work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find.

My system uses R410A. Can it still be repaired?

Yes. Any leak is repaired before recharging, and the work is recorded and we will give you an honest view on whether it’s worth it.

How much does an air conditioning repair cost?

It starts with a diagnosis call-out from £75 + VAT, and then you get a fixed price for the repair. Nothing goes ahead without your agreement.

Who is responsible for leak checks?

The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.

System by system

Refrigerant leaks

If the charge is low, there’s a leak somewhere. The leak is found and fixed, then the circuit is tested, evacuated and recharged, and the work is recorded in the F-Gas records.

Multi-split systems

Refrigerant leaks on a multi-split can be anywhere on several pipe runs. We test each run to find it, then repair, pressure test and recharge.

Why deal with it now?

Small faults rarely stay small. A drip can turn into a damaged ceiling, and a slow leak can leave the compressor straining, so getting it looked at early usually means a simpler repair. Dealing with it now is typically simpler than a breakdown later.

What you pay depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, how easy the units are to reach and what the work involves. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

Looking after your system

Looking after the system is mostly common sense. Our tips:

  • Ask for the leak to be found, not just a top-up
  • Send us a photo of any code on the display
  • Switch the unit off if water is leaking from it

Where a repair isn’t worth doing, we say so, with the reasons. If replacement is the better option, we can quote for it on the same visit.

Give the outdoor unit space. Leaves, plants and stored items around it restrict airflow and make the system work harder and debris drawn into the fan can cause noise and damage.

What we do, step by step

Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we’ve done and answer any questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. All told, the work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Somewhere like Graveley, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.

  1. It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
  2. On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
  3. You get a plain explanation of the fault and a fixed price for putting it right.
  4. We repair the fault, and where refrigerant is involved, the leak is found and fixed before recharging.
  5. The system is run and checked in every mode, and we tell you about anything else we noticed.

How to prepare

  • Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
  • Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
  • Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
