What air conditioning repair cannot fix
Air conditioning repair can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:
- An old system with obsolete parts
- An R22 system that has lost its refrigerant
- A power cut or a fault on the incoming supply to the building (that is for the network operator)
Not sure which it is? You can ring us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will tell you honestly.

Do you need air conditioning repair in St Leonards?
When the fan runs but the air is not cold, there are some common causes: a blocked filter, the wrong mode or set temperature, an outdoor unit that can’t breathe, a failed sensor or board, or low refrigerant from a leak. Testing tells us which.
Any of these is worth a proper look:
- A system that keeps cutting out
- Poor airflow even with clean filters
- Frost on the pipework
Weak cooling, water dripping from the indoor unit and error codes are the faults we’re called about most.
Questions to ask before you book
- If the quote is based on a survey, photos or a diagnosis
- Whether the electrical work is done by a registered contractor, such as NICEIC approved
- What’s in the price and what is not
St Leonards: your questions answered
Can you do air conditioning repair in St Leonards?
Yes, St Leonards is within the area we cover. To start, call 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier with a few pictures.
Is St Leonards within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. From a single let flat to offices, shops and public buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
Why is my air conditioning leaking water?
Normally a blocked or kinked condensate drain, a failed condensate pump or a unit that is not level. Ice on the coil from low airflow or low refrigerant can also melt and drip. Switch the unit off and give us a ring on 07833 053749 or use the quote form.
What warranty do I get?
Warranty comes from the manufacturer and depends on the brand and product. Daikin, for instance, gives a standard 2 years on split air conditioning, and we explain the terms for whichever brand you choose.
Why is there ice on my air conditioning pipes?
When airflow drops or refrigerant is lost, the coil gets cold enough to ice. A dirty filter is worth checking first and if that isn’t it, we will find the cause.

The process
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, carry out the job, check the system and talk you through it. The visit itself takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. For a village like St Leonards, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- First, a few questions by phone or email about the brand, the fault and anything shown on the controller.
- At the property, readings and tests narrow the problem down to its cause.
- Nothing is repaired until you’ve heard what’s wrong and agreed a fixed price.
- The repair is carried out, and any refrigerant work is leak tested and recorded.
- The system is run and checked in every mode, and we tell you about anything else we noticed.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Tell us about parking and loading

Pricing air conditioning repair in St Leonards
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- The pipe route between the units
- Which make and model is being fitted or worked on
- Access, including height, roofs and ladders
A single unit or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and what it needs. You’ll have a fixed price before work begins, and the quote sets out the VAT.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:
- A few photos of the room and the wall the unit is on, or will go on
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.
From one of our customers
“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.”
