How we handle air conditioning repair in Streatham
Refrigerant doesn’t get used up, so a low charge means a leak somewhere. 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. The work covers heat pumps, ducted systems and wall-mounted split systems, and common reasons people get in touch are a flashing light and a system that won’t run and a unit blowing warm air.
In Streatham, as across London, air conditioning works hard in hot spells, and that’s when faults show: weak cooling, water leaks, error codes or a unit that will not start. A photo of the error code and the unit’s label helps us arrive with the right parts in mind.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details for an installation, a fault and repair note for a repair, or a record of the service. Keep it with the system’s paperwork, because it helps with any later warranty question.

Common problems we fix in Streatham
Refrigerant leaks often start at joints: flare connections, brazed joints and valves, or pipework damaged or rubbed through by vibration. Corrosion on coils can also cause leaks over time, and a slow leak can go unnoticed until the system stops cooling.
What we’re most often called about:
- Frost on the pipework
- A unit that has lost refrigerant
- Drips from the indoor unit
Shops and offices around Streatham station often cannot wait for cooling to come back, which is what the 24/7 line is for.

What a repair looks like in Streatham
VOA council tax data put about 55% of homes across Streatham and its surrounding area before 1919, and the last census (2021) found about 66% of households live in flats. In flats, outdoor units are often on balconies, roofs or high walls, so tell us how we reach yours. In London, access to outdoor units on roofs and balconies can need planning, so tell us how to reach yours. The Streatham High Road and Streatham Hill Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Streatham, within about a third of a mile. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Streatham and it takes in 12 conservation areas. Roman Catholic Church of the English Martyrs, listed at grade II*, is one of roughly 18 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Streatham’s centre. Swapping an outdoor unit on a listed building or in a conservation area may need consent, so we’ll flag it if a replacement is needed.
For a school like St Andrew's Catholic Primary School, urgent repairs can be booked right away and bigger work in the holidays.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- A room that overheats because of the building, such as a lack of shading or ventilation (the system may need help, not a repair)
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 can’t be used for servicing, so replacement is typically the answer)
- No power to the building at all
