Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Hungerford

Diagnosis call-outs start from £75 + VAT. Once we know the cause, you get a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead and nothing goes ahead without your say-so. If you’re dealing with a unit that has lost refrigerant and a fault code on the display, we can help.

In a place like Hungerford, repairs are usually for home systems and the odd shop or office. What you tell us about the fault shapes the visit, so a description and a photo of any error code really help.

Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

Before you call an engineer

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. A suspected leak is our job, not yours.

Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It helps us diagnose quickly, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Hungerford

Is there an emergency air con repair line for Hungerford?

Hungerford is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we will talk you through what happens next.

Is Hungerford within the area you cover?

Yes. Hungerford is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.

What does an air con repair cost?

It starts with a diagnosis call-out from £75 + VAT, and then you get a fixed price for the repair. You decide before any repair work starts.

How long will you be on site?

It depends on the job, but most of the time it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. We’ll confirm it with the quote.

Is it legal to repair an R410A system?

Yes, repairs and recharges on existing R410A systems remain legal. R410A is getting scarcer and dearer to buy as the GB phase-down tightens, so for older systems we compare the cost of a repair with a replacement.

Are you F-Gas certified?

F-Gas company certification, NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Our engineers also hold the individual F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

What does F-Gas certified mean?

For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. It’s worth checking before booking and we will gladly show you ours.

What happens if it’s left?

Refrigerant supply is changing. Repairing and recharging existing R410A systems is still legal, but R410A is getting scarcer and dearer to buy as the GB phase-down tightens and we weigh that up when we advise you. A system that is left with a fault, or without a service, normally costs more to run.

Several rooms, units or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every unit or room you need covered and we will price it together.
