Air conditioning repair in Longcross
Any repair we carry out in Longcross starts the same way: the engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, the airflow, the condensate drain and the refrigerant pressures and temperatures. After that, you get a plain explanation and a fixed price for the repair. We are often asked to deal with a suspected refrigerant leak and water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling, across wall-mounted split systems, ceiling cassettes and multi-split systems.
A visit to Longcross is planned so we can normally finish in one go, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
Think of the paperwork as the system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer, so keep it safe.

What affects the cost of air conditioning repair
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- The size of the job
- What we find on the survey or diagnosis
One room or a whole building, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the equipment. The price is fixed before we start, and the quote sets out the VAT.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, send us:
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
For a fixed-price quote, phone us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and tell us about the property and what you need. Photos help a lot. We reply to enquiries the same working day.
How it works
The visit has three parts, a bit like a doctor’s appointment: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Longcross.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a price
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

What else we do in Longcross
Longcross: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Longcross?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Longcross?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Longcross 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.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
Most of the time, it’s the condensate system: a blocked pipe, a kinked hose or a failed pump. Turn the system off to stop the water and give us a call.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We hold F-Gas company certification, which the law requires for any business working on refrigerant. NICEIC approval, MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership sit alongside it.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
My system uses R410A. Can it still be repaired?
Yes. We find and fix the leak, then recharge with R410A and record it in the F-Gas records and we’ll give you an honest view on whether it’s worth it.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
R22 is an ozone-depleting refrigerant, and new R22 cannot be used for servicing. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a refrigerant leak normally means replacement. We’ll set out the options and quote for a replacement where it makes sense.
What we are called out for in Longcross
Leaks tend to start where pipes are joined: joints, valves and sections of pipe worn by vibration or damage. Coils can corrode and leak too and many leaks are slow enough to go unnoticed for a while.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- A fault code on the display
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- A system that needs topping up again
The rating label on the unit gives the model number, which helps us bring the right parts.
Comparing quotes
- What paperwork you will receive afterwards
- Whether a new circuit is included and who certifies it
- How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected

What the work involves, system by system
VRF systems
On larger VRF systems, the refrigerant charge can be big enough to need regular leak checks under the F-gas rules. Leak repairs are written into the F-Gas records, and the operator keeps the records.
Fans and compressors
Fan motors and bearings wear over time, and the first sign is often noise or weak airflow. Indoor and outdoor fan motors can typically be replaced, depending on parts availability.
What a customer said
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
