What air conditioning repair can’t fix
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what air conditioning repair won’t do:
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 cannot be used for servicing, so replacement is usually the answer)
- Cooling that falls short because the system is too small
- Heat gains the system was never designed for
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Strand-on-the-Green
Refrigerant doesn’t get used up, so if it’s low, there’s a leak. Topping up without a repair only delays the next breakdown. We find and fix the leak, pressure test, evacuate and recharge to the manufacturer’s charge, then record it in the F-Gas records. We are often asked to deal with a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room and a unit that has lost refrigerant, across VRF systems, wall-mounted split systems and multi-split systems.
In Strand-on-the-Green, as across London, air conditioning works hard in hot spells, which is when weak cooling, leaks and error codes tend to appear. A photo of the error code and the unit’s label helps us arrive with the right parts in mind.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Our engineers hold the F-gas qualifications needed to work on refrigerant.

What happens if it’s left?
A struggling system costs more to run. A dirty coil, a blocked filter or a low refrigerant charge all make the system work harder for less cooling, and the extra strain can shorten the life of the compressor. In London, hot spells can bring a rush of calls, so planning the work in Strand-on-the-Green before summer avoids the wait.

What happens on the day
Think of the visit in three stages: diagnose, treat and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally we test, record and explain. Most of the time goes on the middle part, and that takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Let us know who controls access to the building in Strand-on-the-Green, as that saves time on the day.
- Describe the problem and the brand, and mention any code on the display.
- The engineer diagnoses the fault on site, testing rather than guessing.
- We explain the cause in plain English and give you a fixed price.
- With your go-ahead, we carry out the repair, recording any refrigerant work.
- We test the system in operation and leave you a note of the fault and the fix.
Preparing for the visit
- Unlock any gate, garage or side passage we need
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Let us know if the units are on a roof, a high wall or in a locked area

What affects the cost of air conditioning repair
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How easy the units are to reach
- How many units are involved
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why we look at the job first, from pictures or on a survey, and the price is agreed before we start.
Before you get in touch
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Where the outdoor unit is, or where you’d like it
- Wide photos of the room or the existing unit
- The remote or wall controller showing any error

Questions from Strand-on-the-Green
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Strand-on-the-Green out of hours?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Strand-on-the-Green. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
How do I get a quote for air conditioning repair in Strand-on-the-Green?
Use the quote form, or email, with a description of the job. Straightforward work can be priced remotely. Bigger jobs get a survey and a written fixed price.
How does the warranty work?
The manufacturer provides it, on its own terms. Some brands make regular servicing a condition, so keep your service records.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule and quote for it. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
Anything that involves the refrigerant needs an F-Gas qualified engineer from a certified company. That is a legal requirement, and manufacturers expect it for their warranty too. We can quote for the whole job, from supply to commissioning.
How long does the work take?
On site, it takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Bigger or more complicated systems take longer, and the quote will say how long.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, typically whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
