If something is different, we talk it through with you before carrying on. After that, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. For a place like Radley, the timing is set with you and the travel is our side of the planning.
- Tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and send a photo of the display if you can.

- We explain the cause and give you a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead.

- We run the system, check it’s working properly and note anything else that needs attention.

Air conditioning repair in Radley, done properly
We treat a faulty system the way a doctor treats a patient: diagnose the cause, treat it properly and sign it off when it’s working. Guesswork costs money, and replacing a board when the fault is a sensor leaves the problem in place. If the problem is water leaking from the unit or through the ceiling and a suspected refrigerant leak, we can help.
Around Radley, 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.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

What affects the cost of air conditioning repair
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
- The brand, model and parts involved
- How easy the units are to reach
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
Before you get in touch
Good photos often save a visit. The most useful are:
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
To get a fixed-price quote, give us a ring on 07833 053749 or email us with the address and a few details about the rooms or units involved. Photos help a lot. We reply to enquiries the same working day.
What a repair looks like in Radley
About 77% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to Census 2021 figures. A photo of the outdoor unit and its surroundings tells us what access the visit needs. On the National Heritage List, around 14 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Radley; Church of St James (grade II*) 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.

How the job changes from property to property
Condensate drains and pumps
The drain is cleared, the pump tested and the fall checked, so the water goes where it should. If a pump has failed, we replace it and tested before we go.
Ducted and cassette systems
Water through a ceiling below a cassette or ducted unit needs prompt attention. A failed pump, a blocked drain or an overflowing tray is normally behind it, and we check all three.
Looking after your system
Systems last better with the right care. We suggest:
- Leave space around the outdoor unit
- Note any error code, or take a photo of the display
- Turn the system off if it’s dripping water
You get a note of the fault and what we did: the cause, the parts fitted and any refrigerant added or recovered. Refrigerant work goes into the F-Gas records, so keep the note with the system’s paperwork.
Clean the filters regularly. Clogged filters starve the unit of air, and that can cause ice, drips and poor performance, so keep them clean as the manual describes.
Your questions about air conditioning repair in Radley
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Radley?
Radley 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.
Do you cover smaller places like Radley?
Yes. Radley is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
How much does an air conditioning 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 will you be on site?
That depends on what’s involved, but as a guide it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. We’ll give you a firmer idea when we quote.
Why does my air conditioning run but not cool?
Common causes are a blocked filter, the wrong mode or set temperature, an outdoor unit that cannot breathe, a failed sensor or board, or low refrigerant from a leak. Start by checking the filter and the mode, and if that doesn’t fix it, ring us on 07833 053749 or drop us a line.
Why is my air conditioning leaking water?
Most leaks come from a blocked drain, a failed pump or a unit that has dropped out of level. Ice on the coil from low airflow or low refrigerant can also melt and drip. Turn it off and call 07833 053749.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We start with a proper look and tell you honestly what we find, including anything about the original installation that needs putting right. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
