What happens on the day
We book the visit for a day and time that suit you, and we let you know if plans need to move. On arrival, the engineer compares the job with the survey, your photos or the details you gave us. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, the work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. A few photos help us make the most of a visit to Thorney.
- First the diagnosis: fault codes read, electrics and airflow checked, drain and refrigerant tested.
- Prescribe: tell you the cause and the fixed cost of the cure.
- Where a repair doesn’t make sense, you will hear it from us, with the alternatives.
- The treatment: the repair itself, with any leak found and fixed before recharging.
- The sign-off: the system tested in operation and the work recorded.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Make sure we can reach the outdoor unit, or where it will go
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it

Air conditioning repair in Thorney, done properly
We treat a faulty system the way a doctor treats a patient: diagnose the cause, treat it properly and sign it off when it’s working. Guesswork costs money, and replacing a board when the fault is a sensor leaves the problem in place. The work covers multi-split systems, ceiling cassettes and ducted systems, and the jobs we see most are a suspected refrigerant leak and air conditioning running but not cooling.
Around Thorney, outdoor units often sit close to gardens and hedges, so leaves, seeds and cobwebs on the coil are worth checking first.
Some warranty terms depend on the system being serviced regularly by a qualified engineer. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

Leave it or put it right?
Small faults rarely stay small. A drip can turn into a damaged ceiling, and a slow leak can leave the compressor straining and early diagnosis usually keeps the repair simpler. Small faults tend to grow, so it’s worth dealing with them early.
Every job is different, so we price each one individually. The system, the access, the pipe routes and the parts involved all play a part.

Different systems, different jobs
Multi-split systems
On a multi-split, one outdoor unit serves several indoor units, so we check whether the fault is in one room or the shared outdoor unit. That shapes the diagnosis and the repair.
Fans and compressors
Fans are the moving parts most likely to wear, often starting with a noise or weaker airflow. A worn fan motor can typically be replaced where the parts are available.
Thorney: your questions answered
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Thorney?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Thorney. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we’ll advise on the next step.
Is Thorney within the area you cover?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you work on commercial properties?
Yes. From one rented home to commercial buildings, the approach is the same: a look first, a fixed-price quote and written records.
Do you work on all makes?
We install and work on the leading makes, from Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin and Fujitsu to Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. Tell us the make and model and we will take it from there.
Which accreditations do you hold?
As the law requires for refrigerant work, we’re an F-Gas certified company. We’re also NICEIC approved, MCS certified for heat pumps and Checkatrade members.
Will you make a mess?
We put dust sheets over floors and furniture near the work first, and we tidy up as we go. Before we leave, we clear up and run through the work with you.
Is it legal to repair an R410A system?
Yes, repairs and recharges on existing R410A systems remain legal. As the GB phase-down continues, R410A is getting harder and dearer to buy, so for older systems we compare the cost of a repair with a replacement.
What affects the quote in Thorney
Typical ranges are on our prices page, and your quote is built on your job. What we look at:
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
- The condition of any existing system
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
The pipe route, the height of the units and how we reach them can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Your consumer unit or fuse board
- Any error code or flashing light on the display
- The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from pictures and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.
