Why it’s worth doing now in Rake
Refrigerant supply is changing. R410A systems can still be repaired legally, though the GB phase-down is making R410A harder and dearer to buy, so for older systems we compare the cost of a repair with a replacement. Waiting rarely makes an air conditioning problem smaller.
Our prices page shows typical ranges, but your price depends on the job in front of us. For a fixed-price quote, ring us on 07833 053749 or use the quote form, and we will talk you through it.

How we handle air conditioning repair in Rake
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. If the problem is drips from the indoor unit and a system that needs topping up again, we can sort it out.
A visit to Rake is planned so we can normally finish in one go, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We will explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Refrigerant leaks
Adding refrigerant without a repair is not a fix, and it releases more refrigerant into the air. That is why we repair the leak first.
Fans and compressors
At the centre of the system is the compressor. Compressor faults can sometimes be caused by something else, such as an electrical fault or a refrigerant problem, so we test before condemning it. If it has failed, we compare the cost of repair with replacement.
Air conditioning repair around Rake
The 2021 Census found about 71% of households in detached or semi-detached houses. Access to the outdoor unit is the one detail that most changes how a visit is planned. On the National Heritage List, around 4 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Rake; The Sun Inn (grade II) is one. Swapping an outdoor unit on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, so we’ll flag it if a replacement is needed.
When cooling fails at a school like Rake CofE Primary School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons. Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller.

Fixed-price quotes for air conditioning repair in Rake
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- What state the existing equipment is in
- The number of rooms, units or zones
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
A single unit or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. You’ll have a fixed price before we start, with VAT shown clearly.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- Photos showing the indoor unit and the space around it
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
FAQs for Rake
Do you cover Rake for air conditioning repair?
We do: Rake falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Is Rake within the area you cover?
Yes. Rake is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
Which brands do you work with?
We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Send us the make and model if you have it.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We’ll work out which band applies to yours.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Not the refrigerant work. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
The process
We keep the work area tidy as we go, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. On site, it takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Seeing the property in photos first means the trip to Rake can be planned properly.
- It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
- We diagnose on site, checking the codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant pressures.
- Nothing is repaired until you’ve heard what’s wrong and agreed a fixed price.
- With your agreement the part is replaced or the fault put right, and refrigerant work goes in the F-Gas log.
- The system is run and checked in every mode, and we tell you about anything else we noticed.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
Getting a price
Quotes don’t take long. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
