System by system
Circuit boards and sensors
Boards and sensors are the system’s nervous system. Sensor faults can stop the system or confuse it, and boards can fail after a power surge or with age.
Wall-mounted split systems
Wall-mounted splits are the systems we repair most often. Typical faults include blocked drains, dirty coils and filters, failed fan motors, sensor faults and refrigerant leaks and the diagnosis starts with the fault code and the symptoms.
Air conditioning repair in Theale
Faults on all the leading makes are part of our everyday work, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Systems fitted by other installers are fine too, so tell us the make and model if you know it. If you are dealing with a system that needs topping up again and a system that runs but doesn’t cool the room, we can sort it out.
Outdoor units around Theale often sit near hedges, trees and lawns, and leaves or grass cuttings on the coil are a common reason for poor cooling. That’s one of the first things we check.
The records are your system’s health record: what was fitted or found, what was done and when. If anything goes wrong later, it helps the next engineer and the manufacturer, so keep it safe.

Pricing air conditioning repair in Theale
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We consider:
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- The size of the job
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
A single unit or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the equipment. The price is fixed before we start, and the quote sets out the VAT.
What we need to know
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
Photos are enough for some jobs; others need a visit first. Bigger systems, commercial sites and awkward pipe routes are normally surveyed on site. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work is booked.
What we do, step by step
There’s very little for you to do on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and the rest is down to us. At the end, we tidy up and run through the work with you. Because we plan from photos or a survey, a job in Theale can typically be finished in one visit.
- You describe the fault, the make and any error code, ideally with a photo.
- On the diagnosis visit, the engineer tests the system rather than guessing.
- Nothing is repaired until you’ve heard what’s wrong and agreed a fixed price.
- We repair the fault, and where refrigerant is involved, the leak is found and fixed before recharging.
- Before leaving, we run it through its modes and write up what was found and done.
Before we arrive
- Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
- Dig out any previous service or F-Gas records
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property

Signs you need air conditioning repair in Theale
A unit that runs but doesn’t cool has a few usual suspects: a blocked filter, the wrong mode or set temperature, an outdoor unit that cannot breathe, a failed sensor or board, or low refrigerant from a leak. Testing tells us which.
Customers usually contact us when they notice one of these:
- Water dripping from the indoor unit
- Ice forming on the indoor unit or pipes
- Air conditioning running but not cooling
Shops and offices around Theale station often cannot wait for cooling to come back, which is what the 24/7 line is for.

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Theale
Do you cover smaller places like Theale?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. We are based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Theale?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Theale is one of the places it covers. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
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.
What does F-Gas certified mean?
The law says any company working on equipment containing F gas has to be certified, and each engineer needs the right qualifications too. It means the refrigerant in your system is handled legally.
What does the error code on my air conditioning mean?
Each manufacturer uses its own codes, and one code can have more than one cause. Tell us the code, the make and the model and we will test the system to confirm the cause.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule and quote for it. Leak checks required by the F-gas rules can be built in for larger systems.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
