How we handle air conditioning repair in Picket Twenty
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, so you can decide with the facts in front of you. The work covers ducted systems, wall-mounted split systems and VRF systems, and the jobs we see most are drips from the indoor unit and a system that keeps cutting out.
Around Picket Twenty, repairs tend to be home systems, garden rooms and a few businesses. Describe the fault and send a photo of the unit’s label so we can plan the visit.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order and each visit is recorded.

Why deal with it now?
If your system uses R22, the options are narrower. R22 depletes the ozone layer, and servicing with new R22 isn’t allowed, which normally makes replacement the sensible route after a refrigerant fault. We’ll tell you honestly and quote for a replacement if it makes sense. Getting the date in early helps for a place like Picket Twenty.
Our prices page shows typical ranges, but your price depends on the job in front of us. Call for a fixed-price quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

How the visit works
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. All told, the work takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. If a lane or gateway near Picket Twenty is tight for a van, let us know and we’ll plan for it.
- It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
- At the property, readings and tests narrow the problem down to its cause.
- Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
- The fix goes in, with any refrigerant work tested and written into the F-Gas records.
- Before leaving, we run it through its modes and write up what was found and done.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly:
- Send us a photo of any code on the display
- Rule out the simple causes first: filter, mode and temperature
- Only let an F-Gas qualified engineer work on the refrigerant
After the repair, the system is run and checked in every mode it has. We confirm it’s working properly and look for anything else that needs attention and point out anything else we spotted.
Keep the outdoor unit clear. Anything blocking the outdoor unit makes the whole system strain and debris drawn into the fan can cause noise and damage.
Before you call an engineer
Write down what you notice: error codes, noises, drips, smells or a drop in performance. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. With the power off, they lift out, can be vacuumed or rinsed and must be fully dry before they go back. For a heat pump, the main owner jobs are a clear outdoor unit and sensible control settings.
A customer’s words
“Very professional from the initial survey through to installation. The engineer explained everything clearly and the quote was exactly what we paid. Would not hesitate to recommend AirCon Doctor.”
