Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Steeple Aston
Any repair we carry out in Steeple Aston starts the same way: the engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, the airflow, the condensate drain and the refrigerant pressures and temperatures. Then we explain what’s wrong and give you a fixed price to put it right. We’re often asked to deal with a unit that won’t start and a unit blowing warm air, on multi-split systems, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems.
We plan the trip to Steeple Aston so the repair can be finished in one visit where possible, though some parts have to be ordered from the manufacturer.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

Steeple Aston questions
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Steeple Aston out of hours?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Steeple Aston is one of the places it covers. A diagnosis call-out starts from £75 + VAT, and knowing the brand and the symptoms helps us plan it.
Is Steeple Aston within the area you cover?
We do. Villages and hamlets get the same service as the bigger towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Which manufacturers do you install and repair?
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.
Do you protect the property while you work?
Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets before any work starts, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, with visits at the interval your system and the manufacturer need. Each visit is recorded, with F-Gas records where refrigerant work is involved.
What does an air con repair cost?
The first step is a diagnosis, from £75 + VAT, followed by a fixed price for the repair. Nothing goes ahead without your agreement.
Can you repair an R22 air conditioning system?
Servicing with new R22 is not allowed, because it depletes the ozone layer. Some non-refrigerant faults can be repaired if parts are available, but a leak normally makes replacement the sensible route. We’ll set out the options and quote for a replacement where it makes sense.
How the visit works
The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, the work takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Work in Steeple Aston is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- You describe the fault, the make and any error code, ideally with a photo.
- On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go

How we price air conditioning repair
Typical ranges are on our prices page, but every job is priced on its own. What we look at:
- One-off work versus a regular service cycle
- How easy the units are to reach
- The distance and route between the indoor and outdoor units
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- A few pictures 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
- A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light
Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Never add refrigerant yourself or let anyone top up without finding the leak
- Leave a tripping breaker off and call us
- Turn the system off if it’s dripping water
If the same symptom comes back, tell us right away. Let us know what the system is doing and any code on the display, and we’ll look into it.
Clean the filters regularly. Blocked filters cut airflow, which can lead to poor cooling, ice on the coil and drips and the manual shows how to clean them.
What the work involves, system by system
VRF systems
VRF systems often hold enough refrigerant to need regular F-gas leak checks. Leak repairs are written into the F-Gas records for the operator’s records.
Condensate drains and pumps
We clear the drain, test the pump and check the fall, so the water goes where it should. Failed pumps are replaced and test it before we leave.
