How we handle air conditioning repair in Strawberry Hill
Wondering whether the fault is something simple? Check the filter, the mode, the set temperature and the remote’s batteries first, and if that does not fix it, call us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk. We reply to enquiries the same working day. The work covers ceiling cassettes, VRF systems and heat pumps, and people most often call us about ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes and a unit that has lost refrigerant.
In a managed building in Strawberry Hill, the repair may need booking through the agent or building manager, so let us know who needs to know we are coming. Roof access can need keys or permits, and we plan for that before we arrive.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, so we go through them with you rather than leave you to find the small print.

System by system
VRF systems
On larger VRF systems, the refrigerant charge can be big enough to need regular leak checks under the F-gas rules. Leak repairs are written into the F-Gas records for the operator’s records.
Fans and compressors
The compressor is the heart of the system. Compressor faults can sometimes be caused by something else, such as an electrical fault or a refrigerant problem, so we test before condemning it. A failed compressor often raises the repair-or-replace question, and we give you both prices.
Common questions in Strawberry Hill
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Strawberry Hill?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Strawberry Hill. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
Is Strawberry Hill in your area for air conditioning repair?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Strawberry Hill is part of that. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is looked at first, on a survey, or from your pictures and details where the job is simple. Then you get a fixed-price quote.
Will skipping a service affect the warranty?
That depends on the brand. If servicing is in the terms, missing one could affect a claim, so we explain the terms on your quote.
How long does the work take?
On site, it takes a single visit for many faults, while some repairs need a second visit once parts arrive. Larger systems naturally take longer, and the quote will say how long.
Can you set up regular servicing?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re 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.
How do you keep the place clean during the work?
Protection goes down first: dust sheets over floors and anything close to the work. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.
Safe owner checks
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo of the display helps even more.

What we do, step by step

The visit itself takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts.

- Next, a plain explanation and a fixed price.
- If the repair isn’t worth doing, we say so and explain the options.
- The treatment: the repair itself, with any leak found and fixed before recharging.
- Sign off: prove it works and record the visit.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit

Most indoor unit leaks come back to the condensate. A blocked or kinked drain, a failed pump or a unit that isn’t level are the usual causes, and ice on the coil that melts can drip too.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
- Poor airflow even with clean filters
- A unit blowing warm air
If a system fails at a school such as Kneller Hall Senior School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.
