Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where property maintenance often slips. Each visit produces a dated record, with F-Gas records wherever refrigerant work is involved, so you can show what was done and when.
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We can arrange it, prepare the system for it and fix what it finds.
How we handle air conditioning repair in North Kensington
A symptom is only a clue: warm air, drips and error codes can each have several causes. Warm air can mean anything from a dirty filter to a sensor, board or refrigerant fault, which is why diagnosis comes first. The work covers multi-split systems, VRF systems and heat pumps, and the jobs we see most are a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room and new noises from the system.
In a managed building in North Kensington, the repair may need booking through the agent or building manager, so tell us who controls access. Roof access can need keys or permits, and we plan for that before we arrive.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, ready for the next service or a warranty query.

North Kensington: your questions answered
Is North Kensington in your area for air conditioning repair?
We do: North Kensington falls inside our working area. Just call 07833 053749 or use the quote form with a few details.
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in North Kensington out of hours?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and North Kensington 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 ice on the indoor coil?
When airflow drops or refrigerant is lost, the coil gets cold enough to ice. Check the filter first, and if it’s clean, the system needs a diagnosis.
Can you repair an R22 air conditioning system?
Servicing with new R22 isn’t allowed, because it depletes the ozone layer. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a refrigerant leak typically means replacement. We’ll set out the options and quote for a replacement where it makes sense.
What does an air con repair cost?
It starts with a diagnosis call-out from £75 + VAT, and then you get a fixed price for the repair. Nothing goes ahead without your agreement.
How long does the visit take?
It depends on the job, but most of the time it takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. We will give you a firmer idea when we quote.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Before you call an engineer
Keep a note of anything odd: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.
There are a few things you can safely do yourself: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
Air conditioning repairs in North Kensington: local notes
Roughly a third of a mile or less from central North Kensington, you reach the Oxford Gardens Conservation Area. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of North Kensington and it takes in 9 conservation areas. On the National Heritage List, around 161 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of North Kensington; The Anglican Chapel (grade I) is one. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building. About 53% of homes in North Kensington and the neighbourhoods around it were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and about 77% of households live in flats, according to the last census (2021). Balcony, roof or high wall? Knowing where a flat’s outdoor unit is helps us bring the right access kit. In London buildings, outdoor units can be on roofs or in light wells, so let us know where yours is.
For a school like Barlby Primary School, urgent repairs can be booked straight away and bigger work in the holidays. Near Kensal Green station, as anywhere, a photo of the error code on the controller is the quickest way to start a repair.

What happens if it’s left?
Running with a fault wastes electricity. Poor airflow or low refrigerant means more running time for less effect and the extra work wears the parts faster. If a lease or managing agent is involved in North Kensington, start the conversation early.
Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all play a part.
