Air conditioning repair for homes and businesses in Tower Hamlets
We repair air conditioning on all the main brands, 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. Typical jobs include frost on the pipework and a system that keeps cutting out, on VRF systems, multi-split systems and ceiling cassettes.
In a place like Tower Hamlets, repairs are usually for home systems and the odd shop or office. We plan the visit from what you tell us about the fault, so describe what it’s doing and send a photo of any error code.
Refrigerant work is written up in the F-Gas records: the work carried out, the refrigerant involved and the quantities. File them with the system’s paperwork, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving a fault seldom makes it go away. A drip can turn into a damaged ceiling, and a slow leak can leave the compressor straining, so getting it looked at early usually means a simpler repair. A system that’s left with a fault, or without a service, typically costs more to run.
Putting several jobs into one visit can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

After we’ve gone
Looking after it is simple, and it helps at the next service:
- Send us a photo of any code on the display
- If the breaker trips twice, leave it off
- Have the system serviced once a year
Where a repair is not worth doing, we say so, and explain why. If replacement is the better option, we can quote for it on the same visit.
Filter cleaning is the simplest prevention there is. Blocked filters cut airflow, which can lead to poor cooling, ice on the coil and drips, so keep them clean as the manual describes.
Common questions in Tower Hamlets
Is Tower Hamlets within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
Who do I call if my air conditioning fails in Tower Hamlets out of hours?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Tower Hamlets. Tell us the make, model and any error code when you call; repair call-outs start from £75 + VAT.
Can you still repair R410A air conditioning?
Yes. Repairing and recharging existing R410A systems is still 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.
Are you F-Gas certified?
F-Gas certified, NICEIC approved and MCS certified for heat pumps, plus Checkatrade membership. Engineers who handle refrigerant hold their own F-gas qualifications as well.
My air con is showing an error code. What should I do?
Codes differ by brand, and the same code can cover several faults. Tell us the code, the make and the model, and we’ll diagnose the fault on site.
Do you look at the job first?
Yes. Photos often do the job for simple work, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
Why is there ice on my air conditioning pipes?
It normally points to poor airflow or a refrigerant leak. A clogged filter, a fan problem or a leak are typical. Turn it off, let the ice melt and ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line.

Other services in Tower Hamlets
Do you need air conditioning repair in Tower Hamlets?
Refrigerant leaks often start at joints: joints, valves and sections of pipe worn by vibration or damage. Corrosion on coils can also cause leaks over time and many leaks are slow enough to go unnoticed for a while.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Ice on the pipework or the coil
- A unit that has lost refrigerant
- A unit blowing warm air
If your system near Dover Priory station stops in a hot spell, our 24/7 line is open.
