Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in New Charlton
A diagnosis call-out is from £75 + VAT. When the cause is found, the repair is priced before anything else is done and nothing goes ahead without your say-so. The work covers multi-split systems, VRF systems and ducted systems, and the jobs we see most are water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling and a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room.
Many buildings in New Charlton have a managing agent or security desk, so let us know who needs to know we are coming. Outdoor units on roofs may need a key, a permit or an escort, and we plan for that before we arrive.
Warranty on the equipment is the manufacturer’s own, on the manufacturer’s terms, and we explain those terms on your quote. Each brand sets its own conditions, and we are happy to talk you through them.

FAQs for New Charlton
Do you cover New Charlton for air conditioning repair?
Yes. New Charlton is one of the places we cover. Just ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line with a few details.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for New Charlton?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in New Charlton. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
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. Check the filter first and if that is not it, we’ll find the cause.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, we work the same way: survey or diagnosis, a fixed price and proper paperwork.
How much does an air conditioning repair cost?
A diagnosis call-out is from £75 + VAT. Once we know the cause, you get a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead. The final cost depends on the fault, the parts and the access.
What can I do with an old R22 system?
Replacement is usually 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 usually the better investment.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The F-gas rules share it between the equipment’s operator and the engineers who work on it. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.

For landlords and property managers
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
The F-gas rules share responsibility for leak checking between the equipment’s operator and the service technicians. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is, and we can work for either side.
Leave it or put it right?
Waiting for hot weather to see whether a fault sorts itself out rarely works. If the system is faulty now, it will be faulty in a heatwave, when you need it most, so it’s worth having it diagnosed while you can plan the repair. Getting the work done in New Charlton before summer avoids the busiest weeks.
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we will explain what it covers.

When something else is needed
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:
- A system that was undersized for the room in the first place (that needs a bigger system, not a repair)
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 cannot be used for servicing, so replacement is typically the answer)
- 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, ring 07833 053749 or send an email and we will say what we think.
