Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Petts Wood
Any repair we carry out in Petts Wood 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. If you’re dealing with air conditioning running but not cooling and rattling, buzzing or grinding noises, we can sort it out.
In a London area like Petts Wood, a lot of the systems we repair serve flats and small offices, where the outdoor unit may be on a balcony, a rear wall or the roof. Knowing where the outdoor unit sits, and how to get to it, helps us plan the repair.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Looking after it afterwards
Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. A few tips:
- Send us a photo of any code on the display
- Keep to the service interval the manufacturer recommends
- Ask for the leak to be found, not just a top-up
After a repair, the basics matter: clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should. An annual service is the best way to catch the next fault before it stops the system.
Use the system sensibly. Moderate settings and a closed room mean less strain and the system doesn’t have to work as hard.

Do you work on all makes?

What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
Usually a blocked or kinked condensate drain, a failed condensate pump or a unit that isn’t level. Ice that forms on the coil and melts can cause drips too. Switch the unit off and call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

Anyone installing, repairing or servicing the refrigerant side must be qualified, and their company certified. It’s worth checking before booking, and we’re happy to show ours.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. We always look before we price, either on a site survey or from pictures and details for simple jobs. A fixed-price quote follows.
Why is not my air con cooling?
It can be anything from a dirty filter to a refrigerant leak. We read any fault code and test the system to find which and you get a fixed price before the repair.

How we price air conditioning repair
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- The size of the job
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
Whatever the property, the quote works the same way: the equipment, the access, the work involved and the time it takes. Call for a fixed-price quote and we will go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The remote or wall controller showing any error
- A few pictures of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
Published ranges are a starting point; the quote is built on your property, because no two buildings, rooms or systems are the same. Once we’ve looked at the job, from pictures or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To get going, ring 07833 053749 or send an email.
How the job changes from property to property
Condensate drains and pumps
We clear the drain, test the pump and check the fall until the condensate runs away properly. Failed pumps are replaced and test it before we leave.
Circuit boards and sensors
Testing comes before any part is replaced because swapping parts on a guess wastes money. Some parts need ordering from the manufacturer and we will explain any wait.
