How we price air conditioning repair
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- The brand, model and parts involved
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
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.
Before you get in touch
Simple jobs can often be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have 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 start, ring us on 07833 053749 or send an email.
What we are called out for in Harrietsham
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:
- Rattling, buzzing or grinding noises
- Ice on the pipework or the coil
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
If a system fails at a school such as Harrietsham Church of England Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether testing, commissioning and paperwork are included
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
- Why the equipment they’re quoting suits the job

Questions from Harrietsham
Do you cover Harrietsham for air conditioning repair?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Harrietsham is part of that. To start, phone 07833 053749 or send an email with a few photos.
Do you cover smaller places like Harrietsham?
Yes. Harrietsham is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Do you have a 24/7 line for breakdowns?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for breakdowns that can’t wait. Ring 07833 053749 with the make, what’s happening and any code, and we’ll agree the next steps with you.
Is the equipment covered by a warranty?
It’s the manufacturer’s warranty, which varies by brand. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
What can I do with an old R22 system?
Servicing with new R22 isn’t allowed, because it depletes the ozone layer. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a refrigerant leak normally means replacement. We explain the options and quote for a new system if that’s the answer.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is written up, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
Safe owner checks
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Refrigerant is off limits for anyone without the right qualifications. Under the F-gas rules, engineers need their own qualifications and the company must be certified, and escaping refrigerant can cause cold burns. If you suspect a leak, switch the system off and call us.
