The process
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we explain what was done and answer your questions, and anything that needs attention later is pointed out. The visit takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Green Tye.
- You tell us the symptoms, the make and any error code.
- The engineer diagnoses the fault on site, testing rather than guessing.
- You get the cause explained and a fixed price for the repair.
- Once agreed, the repair goes ahead.
- The system is run and checked, and you get a written note of the repair.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
Getting a price
Photos are the fastest route to a quote: the inside and outside of the property where the work is, plus the rating plate of any unit already there. Tell us the address and what you need, and many jobs can be priced from that.

Air conditioning repair in Green Tye: the local picture
About 74% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day. Green Tye’s centre falls inside the Green Tye Conservation Area. About 13 listed entries lie within half a mile of central Green Tye, Bulls Cottage (grade II) among them. Swapping an outdoor unit on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, so we will flag it if a replacement is needed.
If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault. Dirty filters and blocked drains cause more faults than people expect.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Never try to top up, release or handle refrigerant yourself. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and refrigerant lines can cause cold burns. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.
Owner care supports servicing; it doesn’t replace it. Simple care keeps the air moving through the system, but the refrigerant circuit, the electrics and the parts you cannot see still need an engineer at the interval the manufacturer recommends.
What happens if it’s left?
Running with a fault wastes electricity. Poor airflow or low refrigerant means more running time for less effect, and the extra strain can shorten the life of the compressor. An early booking makes the visit to Green Tye easier to arrange.
What you pay depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, the access and the parts and time the job needs. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Green Tye: your questions answered
Will you come out to Green Tye?
Yes. Green Tye is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can you do air conditioning repair in Green Tye?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Green Tye is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. We always look before we price, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. A fixed-price quote follows.
Why is there ice on my air conditioning pipes?
When airflow drops or refrigerant is lost, the coil gets cold enough to ice. A dirty filter is worth checking first and if that is not it, we’ll find the cause.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. 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.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes. You get a written record of every visit, and any work on the refrigerant circuit goes in the F-Gas records. File them with the system’s paperwork.
Looking after your system
Looking after the system is mostly common sense. Our tips:
- Turn it off and let ice clear before the visit
- Write down the fault code if there is one
- Ask for the leak to be found, not just a top-up
After a repair, the basics matter: clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should. An annual service is the best way to catch the next fault before it stops the system.
Have the system serviced once a year. A service cleans the coils and drain, checks the electrics and the refrigerant circuit and catches small faults early, which is far simpler than an emergency repair.
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.”
