Honest limits
Air conditioning repair can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:
- A unit whose parts are no longer made (replacement may be the only option)
- A building problem rather than a system fault
- A power cut or a fault on the incoming supply to the building (that is for the network operator)
If in doubt, call 07833 053749 and we will say what we think before you book.
What the work covers
- Ceiling cassettes
- Ducted systems

About our air conditioning repair in Ladywell
A diagnosis call-out is from £75 + VAT. When the cause is found, the repair is priced before anything else is done, so you can decide with the facts in front of you. We’re often asked to deal with a noisy indoor or outdoor unit and ice on the pipework or the coil, across ducted systems, VRF systems and ceiling cassettes.
Many buildings in Ladywell have a managing agent or security desk, so tell us who controls access. Outdoor units on roofs may need a key, a permit or an escort, and we plan for that before we arrive.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Ladywell: your questions answered
Can I get a fixed-price quote for air conditioning repair in Ladywell?
Send us photos of the room or the system and a few details about the property. We reply the same working day, and the quote is fixed before any work starts.
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Ladywell out of hours?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Ladywell is one of the places it covers. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
Is it legal to repair an R410A system?
Yes. We find and fix the leak, then recharge with R410A and record it in the F-Gas records, and we tell you honestly whether a repair is worth it on an older system.
Why is water dripping from my indoor unit?
Most leaks come from a blocked drain, a failed pump or a unit that has dropped out of level. Ice on the coil from low airflow or low refrigerant can also melt and drip. Switch the unit off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or send an email.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before booking and we’ll gladly show you ours.
How does the warranty work?
The manufacturer’s warranty, on the manufacturer’s terms. Each brand sets its own conditions and periods, so we explain them on your quote.
Can I do any of the installation myself?
Not the refrigerant work. The F-gas rules require certified companies and qualified engineers for it, and a new electrical circuit is notifiable building work unless a registered competent person does it.
What the work involves, system by system
Multi-split systems
On a multi-split, one outdoor unit serves several indoor units, so we check whether the fault is in one room or the shared outdoor unit. That shapes the diagnosis and the repair.
Ducted and cassette systems
Ducted units and cassettes sit above the ceiling, so access matters. Many have condensate pumps, and pump failures are a common cause of ceiling leaks.
What a repair looks like in Ladywell
The St Mary's Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Ladywell, within about a third of a mile. 7 conservation areas lie within a mile of central Ladywell. Historic England lists about 20 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Ladywell, including Church of St Mary the Virgin (grade II*). If a repair turns into a replacement on a listed building or in a conservation area, we check the planning position before changing the outdoor unit. About 58% of homes across Ladywell and its surrounding area were built before 1919, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and about 62% of households live in flats, according to Census 2021 figures. If you live in a flat, mention any roof hatch, balcony or managing agent we’ll need to get to the outdoor unit. In London, access to outdoor units on roofs and balconies can need planning, so tell us how to reach yours.

What happens on the day
Our engineers arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Before a visit in Ladywell, we ask where the van can stop and how we reach the outdoor unit.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- We diagnose on site, checking the codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant pressures.
- Nothing is repaired until you’ve heard what’s wrong and agreed a fixed price.
- The fix goes in, with any refrigerant work tested and written into the F-Gas records.
- Before leaving, we run it through its modes and write up what was found and done.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Tell us about parking and loading
Ask for a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.

Do you need air conditioning repair in Ladywell?
Refrigerant leaks often start at joints: flare connections, brazed joints and valves, or pipework damaged or rubbed through by vibration. Corrosion on coils can also cause leaks over time and many leaks are slow enough to go unnoticed for a while.
The things we’re asked about most are:
- A system that won’t switch on
- A noisy indoor or outdoor unit
- A system that needs topping up again
Schools such as St Mary's Lewisham Church of England Primary School can report a fault on the 24/7 line and have non-urgent work done out of term.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first
- If the figure could change on the day
- Whether the manufacturer’s warranty depends on regular servicing
