How we handle air conditioning repair in Kentsboro
Age alone does not decide whether a repair is worth it. A system with a failed fan motor may be well worth repairing, while one with a failed compressor might not be. You get an honest view based on the fault, the parts, the refrigerant and the room. Typical jobs include rattling, buzzing or grinding noises and air conditioning running but not cooling, across ceiling cassettes, heat pumps and VRF systems.
We plan the trip to Kentsboro so the repair can be finished in one visit where possible, unless a part has to come from the manufacturer.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Rented and managed buildings
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated record, plus the F-Gas records where refrigerant is involved, ready for a tenant, a buyer or an inspection.
From a single flat to a whole estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, access agreed with the people on site and paperwork at the end.
What owners can safely do
Leave the units and pipework where they are. Moving a unit involves the refrigerant circuit, so it needs an F-Gas qualified engineer, and the electrical side needs a competent person. Ask us to quote for a move instead.
Keep a note of anything odd: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
Kentsboro: your questions answered
Is Kentsboro within the area you cover?
Yes. Kentsboro is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Kentsboro?
Kentsboro is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Is it legal to repair an R410A system?
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.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Why is my air conditioning icing up?
The coil gets too cold when air cannot move across it or when the refrigerant charge is low. A dirty filter is worth checking first, and if it’s clean, the system needs a diagnosis.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
What we do, step by step
Anything involving refrigerant is handled by F-Gas qualified engineers, as the law requires, while the electrical side is covered by our NICEIC approval. So on the day, you do not need a separate electrician for the electrical side. The work takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Kentsboro.
- We start with what the unit is doing, the make and any code.
- A diagnosis visit finds the cause with proper tests.
- The fault is explained simply and the repair priced up front.
- With your go-ahead, we carry out the repair, recording any refrigerant work.
- We test the system in operation and leave you a note of the fault and the fix.
How to prepare
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Move furniture away from the wall where we’ll be working
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
Getting a quote
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 simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
