About our air conditioning repair in Sheldwich Lees
Age alone doesn’t decide whether a repair is worth it. A fan fault on an older unit can be worth fixing, while a compressor failure may tip the balance. We look at the fault, the parts, the refrigerant and how well the system suits the room, then give you an honest view. Typical jobs include a suspected refrigerant leak and drips from the indoor unit, across ceiling cassettes, multi-split systems and heat pumps.
We plan the trip to Sheldwich Lees so the repair can be finished in one visit where possible, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
Looking after a system is mostly common sense: clear space around the outdoor unit, the cleaning the manual describes and a service at the recommended interval. It also keeps you on the right side of any warranty terms that ask for servicing.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. On site, it takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. We agree a date with you and plan the visit to Sheldwich Lees so we arrive with what’s needed.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- Then the prescription: what’s wrong and what it will cost to put right.
- If the repair is not worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- Then the fix, with leaks repaired before any refrigerant is added.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Before we arrive
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in

Air conditioning repair in Sheldwich Lees: the local picture
The middle of Sheldwich Lees is part of the Sheldwich Conservation Area. Lees Court, listed at grade I, is one of roughly 23 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Sheldwich Lees’s centre. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent. About 39% of homes across Sheldwich Lees and its surrounding area were built before 1919, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and the 2021 Census found about 46% of households in terraced houses. On terraced streets, outdoor units are typically at the back, so tell us how we get to the rear of the property.

Rented and managed buildings
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.
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to and we’ll copy in whoever needs it.
What the work involves, system by system
Ducted and cassette systems
If water is coming through the ceiling, switch the unit off and call us. The cause is normally the condensate pump, a blocked drain or a tray that is overflowing and the diagnosis covers each of them.
Condensate drains and pumps
The condensate drain is behind most indoor unit leaks. Drains block with dirt and growth, pipes get kinked and pumps fail, and a unit that has dropped out of level can leak.
When to call us in Sheldwich Lees
Some faults stop the unit completely: a failed fan motor, a fault on a circuit board, a damaged cable between the units or a tripped circuit. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off and call us.
Look out for any of the following:
- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
- Weak airflow from the indoor unit
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
If a system fails at a school such as Sheldwich Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.
