Air conditioning repair in Lower Assendon, done properly
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, so you can decide with the facts in front of you. The work covers VRF systems, multi-split systems and heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes and air conditioning running but not cooling.
A visit to Lower Assendon is planned so we can usually finish in one go, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
Warranty periods vary by brand and by product. For example, Daikin’s standard warranty on split air conditioning is 2 years, and its longer extensions apply to its air-to-water units only. Whatever the brand, the manufacturer’s terms are explained on your quote.

When it’s something else
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- No power to the building at all
- A system that was undersized for the room in the first place (that needs a bigger system, not a repair)
- A room that overheats because of the building, such as a lack of shading or ventilation (the system may need help, not a repair)
If in doubt, call us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form and we will say what we think before you book.
Parts of the system we cover
- Heat pumps
- Ducted systems
- Wall-mounted split systems
- Multi-split systems
- Ceiling cassettes
- VRF systems
Looking after your system
Looking after it is simple, and it helps at the next service:
- If there’s ice on the pipes, switch off and let it melt
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
- Note any error code, or take a photo of the display
Keep the filters clean and the outdoor unit clear after the repair: clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should. A yearly service catches problems before they become breakdowns.
Clean the filters regularly. Clogged filters starve the unit of air, and that can cause ice, drips and poor performance and the manual shows how to clean them.
What affects the quote in Lower Assendon
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- The condition of any existing system
- What kind of system it is
- The size of the job
A single unit or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the equipment. You will have a fixed price before work begins, with VAT shown clearly.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- The make and model of the system, from the label
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
Lower Assendon questions
Is Lower Assendon within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Send a few details and photos, and we reply the same working day.
Do you cover Lower Assendon for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Lower Assendon is within our area, and the emergency line is open 24/7. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
What can I do with an old R22 system?
Replacement is typically the better answer. New R22 cannot be used to service systems, and parts for older units are getting harder to find, so a new system on a modern refrigerant is typically the better investment.
What accreditations do you have?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we’re an F-Gas certified company. We are also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Why is my air conditioning showing a fault code?
An error code points us in the right direction, but testing confirms the cause. Write down the code and turn the unit off if it has stopped, then call 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
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.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and the area is kept tidy throughout. At the end, we clear up and show you what we’ve done.

Advice
What a repair looks like in Lower Assendon
Lower Assendon’s centre is no more than about a third of a mile from the Henley Conservation Area. The Old School House, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 8 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Lower Assendon’s centre. Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first. The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures date about 41% of homes in the Lower Assendon area to the post-war years, 1945 to 1972. Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned.
The rating label on the unit gives the model number, which helps us bring the right parts. When cooling fails at a school like Rupert House School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons.
