What the work involves, system by system
Condensate drains and pumps
The condensate drain is behind most indoor unit leaks. Blockages, kinks and failed pumps are the usual causes, and a unit that is not level can spill water too.
Refrigerant leaks
Topping up without finding the leak only delays the next breakdown and the gas simply leaks out again. That’s why we repair the leak first.
When air con fails in Highmoor Cross
Church of St Paul, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 6 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Highmoor Cross’s centre. Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first. Valuation Office Agency council tax records date about 47% of homes in the Highmoor Cross area to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972, and about 84% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. Wall bracket, ground pad or flat roof: knowing where the outdoor unit is saves time on the day.
Dirty filters and blocked drains cause more faults than people expect.

What we are called out for in Highmoor Cross
Error codes are the system telling you it has found a fault. Codes differ by brand, and one code can cover several faults so the code is a starting point, not the answer. Common causes include sensors, wiring between the units and the circuit boards.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- A unit that barely blows any air
- A fault code on the display
- A system that needs topping up again
A photo of the error code and the unit’s rating label helps us plan the repair.
What your quote should include
- If the figure could change on the day
- Whether the quote shows VAT clearly
- Which brand and model they’re proposing, and why
What happens on the day
Refrigerant work is done by qualified engineers working for an F-Gas certified company, and electrical work is done by us as NICEIC approved contractors. On the day, both are in the same hands. On site, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Highmoor Cross can be planned properly.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- If the repair isn’t worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- Treat: carry out the repair, sealing any leak before refrigerant goes back in.
- Sign off: prove it works and record the visit.
Preparing for the visit
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Highmoor Cross
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Highmoor Cross out of hours?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Highmoor Cross. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Will you come out to Highmoor Cross?
Yes. Highmoor Cross 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.
Will you make a mess?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before work begins, and we tidy up as we go. At the end, we clear up and show you what we have done.
How long will you be on site?
That depends on what’s involved, but as a guide it takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. We will give you a firmer idea when we quote.
Do you provide F-Gas records?
Yes. It’s the record a manufacturer or the next engineer will ask to see: the date, the work, and any refrigerant added or recovered.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, typically 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.
What can I do with an old R22 system?
Most of the time, we recommend replacement. R22 cannot be topped up with new gas, and parts for old models are scarce, so a new system on a modern refrigerant is typically the better investment.
A customer’s words
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
