Air conditioning repair in Theydon Bois
Any repair we carry out in Theydon Bois starts the same way: fault codes, electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant are all checked. Then we explain what’s wrong and give you a fixed price to put it right. Typical jobs include frost on the pipework and an error code or flashing light on the unit, on heat pumps, wall-mounted split systems and multi-split systems.
In a place like Theydon Bois, repairs are normally for home systems and the odd shop or office. We plan the visit from what you tell us about the fault, so a description and a photo of any error code really help.
For a fault on a system that may still be under warranty, send us the make, model and installation date. We’ll explain how the manufacturer’s terms are likely to apply before anything chargeable is done.

When to call us in Theydon Bois
Electrical faults can stop a system altogether: fan motors, boards, interconnecting cables and tripped breakers. If a breaker trips again after you reset it, leave it off until an engineer has looked at it.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A unit blowing warm air
- A unit that has lost refrigerant
- Poor airflow even with clean filters
If a system fails at a school such as Theydon Bois Primary School, our 24/7 line takes the call, and planned repairs can wait for the holidays.

Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves and clutter
- Let any ice thaw before the engineer arrives
- Leave a tripping breaker off and call us
After the repair, the system is run and checked in every mode it has. We confirm it’s working properly and look for anything else that needs attention and point out anything else we spotted.
Clean the filters regularly. Clogged filters starve the unit of air, and that can cause ice, drips and poor performance and the manual shows how to clean them.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and run through the plan before anything else. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes anything from an hour or so to a full day, depending on the fault and the parts. Photos of the existing unit and its label help with repairs and servicing near Theydon Bois.
- Describe the problem and the brand, and mention any code on the display.
- A diagnosis visit finds the cause with proper tests.
- The fault is explained simply and the repair priced up front.
- Once you’re happy, the repair is done and any refrigerant work recorded.
- It’s tested running, and the write-up is left with you.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any building rules, permits or sign-in
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either on a site survey or, for simple jobs, from your pictures and details. Then you get a fixed price so you know the cost before we begin.

Common questions in Theydon Bois
Is Theydon Bois in your area for air conditioning repair?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Theydon Bois is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Is Theydon Bois within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Send a few details and pictures, and we reply the same working day.
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 written up and F-Gas records kept where they apply.
Can you look at a system you didn’t fit?
Yes. Systems fitted by other companies are fine, on all the main brands. Tell us the make and model and send any paperwork you have.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
The condensate drain or pump is the usual cause: a blockage, a kink or a pump that has stopped. Turn the system off to stop the water and give us a call.
Whose job is it to check the system for leaks?
Whoever operates the equipment, together with the technicians who service it. Systems below 5 tCO2e fall outside the set leak check intervals, while larger ones need checks at least every 12 months, or every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We can tell you which band your system falls into.
Do I need to service the system to keep the warranty?
For some brands, yes. Read the manufacturer’s terms, or send us the make and model and we will explain them and stick to the interval they set.
