Air conditioning repair in Lickfold, done properly
Any repair we carry out in Lickfold starts the same way: fault codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant are all checked. After that, you get a plain explanation and a fixed price for the repair. The work covers wall-mounted split systems, multi-split systems and ducted systems, and the jobs we see most are a fault code on the display and ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes.
A visit to Lickfold is planned so we can normally finish in one go, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own 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.

What happens if it’s left?
For a faulty system in Lickfold, an early diagnosis is the sensible first step. The visit takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts, and the repair is priced before anything else happens, and our emergency line runs 24/7. A dirty or faulty system works harder and costs more to run.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is looked at first, and the price is agreed before work begins.

How the job changes from property to property
Multi-split systems
With several pipe runs, finding a leak on a multi-split takes method. We test each run to find it before the system is repaired, tested and recharged.
Wall-mounted split systems
On a wall-mounted split, the indoor and outdoor units talk to each other through a control cable. A break in that communication usually brings up an error code and testing finds whether it’s the cable, a board or a connection.

It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building. The last census (2021) found about 78% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit.
Many breakdowns start small, with a drip, a smell or a unit that takes longer to cool. Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller.

Lickfold questions
Can you do air conditioning repair in Lickfold?
Yes, Lickfold is within the area we cover. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Will you come out to Lickfold?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Which brands do you work with?
We work with the leading brands, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Can you repair an R22 air conditioning system?
Replacement is normally the better answer. R22 can’t 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.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We offer maintenance contracts, 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.
Why isn’t my air con cooling?
It can be anything from a dirty filter to a refrigerant leak. Diagnosis confirms the cause and you get a fixed price before the repair.
Why use an F-Gas certified company?
For refrigerant work, both the engineer and the company need the right F-gas credentials. Ask to see proof before booking anyone, and we are happy to show ours.
How it works
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. The work takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Somewhere like Lickfold, it helps to know about lanes, gates and where to park.
- 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.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
How to prepare
- Let us know where the consumer unit is
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records

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, call us on 07833 053749 or send an email.
Advice
Looking after your system
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Turn it off and let ice clear before the visit
- Stop the unit if water is coming through a ceiling
- Have the system serviced once a year
Keep the filters clean and the outdoor unit clear after the repair: clean filters every few weeks in heavy use and space around the outdoor unit. An annual service is the best way to catch the next fault before it stops the system.
Book an annual service. The engineer cleans what you can’t reach and picks up problems before they cause a breakdown, which is far simpler than an emergency repair.
A customer’s words
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
