Air conditioning repair in Strettington, done properly
Our emergency line runs 24/7 for urgent breakdowns, from an overheating comms room to water leaking from a unit. Call 07833 053749 and tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code and we will talk you through what happens next. If you are dealing with air conditioning running but not cooling and weak airflow from the indoor unit, we can help.
Around Strettington, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, and a coil clogged with leaves or seeds is a common cause of weak cooling.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

Safe owner checks
Good habits make our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and a clear outdoor unit help the system run as it should, but the inside of the units, the refrigerant and the electrics still need a qualified engineer.
Some faults have simple causes you can check first: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and ring us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

What a repair looks like in Strettington
About 71% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the last census (2021). Tell us where your outdoor unit is and how to reach it, so we can plan the visit. On the National Heritage List, around 16 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Strettington; The Old House (grade II) is one. That only matters for replacements, where a new outdoor unit on a protected building can need consent.
Before you call, note what the unit is doing and any code on the controller. When cooling fails at a school like Boxgrove CofE Primary School, we can time non-urgent repair work around lessons.

Strettington questions
Can you do air conditioning repair in Strettington?
Yes, Strettington is within the area we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Do you cover Strettington for emergency air conditioning repairs?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Strettington. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we’ll talk you through what happens next.
Why is my air conditioning blowing warm air?
It could be a dirty filter, the wrong settings, a blocked outdoor unit, a sensor or board fault, or a refrigerant leak. Start by checking the filter and the mode, then call 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form if it’s still not cooling.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
What causes ice on the indoor coil?
When airflow drops or refrigerant is lost, the coil gets cold enough to ice. Check the filter first and if that is not it, we’ll find the cause.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Maintenance contracts are part of what we do, set at the interval the system and the manufacturer’s terms need. Each visit is recorded and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
Most leaks come from a blocked drain, a failed pump or a unit that has dropped out of level. Ice that forms on the coil and melts can cause drips too. Turn it off and ring us on 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Floors and furniture near the work are covered with dust sheets, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. On site, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Visits to Strettington are agreed with you in advance and planned so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Describe the problem and the brand, and mention any code on the display.
- A diagnosis visit finds the cause with proper tests.
- You get the cause explained and a fixed price for the repair.
- Once agreed, the repair goes ahead.
- It’s tested running, and the write-up is left with you.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Keep pets and children away from the work area
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
Getting a price
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Add the address and what you’d like done, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.
Advice
Let and managed properties
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so work at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the paperwork can go to both.
Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by air conditioning repair, and we will tell you before work begins. It does not solve:
- A refrigerant fault on an R22 system (new R22 cannot be used for servicing, so replacement is normally the answer)
- Cooling that falls short because the system is too small
- A building problem rather than a system fault
If you’re not sure, just give us a ring on 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
