How we handle air conditioning repair in Stroud
Age alone doesn’t decide whether a repair is worth it. A system with a failed fan motor may be well worth repairing, while one with a failed compressor might not be. You get an honest view based on the fault, the parts, the refrigerant and the room. If the problem is a system that keeps cutting out and a fault code on the display, we can sort it out.
Around Stroud, repairs tend to be home systems, garden rooms and a few businesses. Describe the fault and send a photo of the unit’s label so we can plan the visit.
Whatever the visit, you get a written record: 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.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and anything electrical is made safe before work starts. The work itself takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. Rural lanes and tight entrances are worth mentioning before a visit to Stroud.
- Diagnose: test the system until the cause is clear.
- Prescribe: tell you the cause and the fixed cost of the cure.
- Where a repair does not make sense, you’ll hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- Then the fix, with leaks repaired before any refrigerant is added.
- Finally, a check that it’s working and a record of what we did.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets out of the rooms we’re working in
- Clear access to the fuse board
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Stroud questions
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Stroud out of hours?
Yes. Our 24/7 emergency line covers Stroud. Have the make, model and error code ready, and we’ll talk you through what happens next.
Can you do air conditioning repair in Stroud?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Stroud is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.
How quickly will you reply?
You’ll hear from us the same working day. For a breakdown that can’t wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
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.
How much does an air conditioning 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.
How long does the visit take?
On site, it takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. Bigger or more complicated systems take longer, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Common problems we fix in Stroud
Water dripping from an indoor unit is normally about the condensate. The drain may be blocked or kinked, the condensate pump may have failed, or the unit may not be level, while ice that forms on the coil and then melts can also cause drips.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- A unit that barely blows any air
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- A flashing light and a system that won’t run
If a system fails at a school such as Langrish Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether anyone has checked the property or the system first
- What paperwork you’ll receive afterwards
- Who does the electrical work, and whether they can certify it
Looking after your system
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Check the filter, the mode and the set temperature before calling us
- Clear debris away from the outdoor fan
- Ask for the leak to be found, not just a top-up
The repair is written up: the cause, the parts fitted and any refrigerant added or recovered. Any refrigerant work is recorded in the F-Gas records, so keep the note with the system’s paperwork.
Have the system serviced once a year. The engineer cleans what you cannot reach and picks up problems before they cause a breakdown, which is far simpler than an emergency repair.
What a repair looks like in Stroud
At about 51 miles from central London, Stroud sits inside the area we cover across London and the South East. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 6 within half a mile of the centre, such as Freshwater House (grade II). We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.
If the display shows a code, write it down: it helps narrow down the fault.

What else we do in Stroud
Different systems, different jobs
Fans and compressors
At the centre of the system is the compressor. Compressor faults can sometimes be caused by something else, such as an electrical fault or a refrigerant problem, so we test before condemning it. If it has failed, we compare the cost of repair with replacement.
VRF systems
VRF systems link many indoor units to shared outdoor units, often across a whole building. Faults are diagnosed through the system’s own fault codes and controls, then confirmed by testing and the repair is priced before we start.
From one of our customers
“Office air con broke down in the July heatwave. Called at 8am, engineer was here by noon and fixed within 2 hours. Brilliant emergency response. They now hold the service contract for the whole building.”
