What affects the quote in Upton
We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of system, from a single split to a larger system
- The condition of any existing system
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
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.
Asking for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price a simple job. Send what you can of the following:
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
To help us quote: the address and the type of property, photos of the rooms or units, the brand and model of anything already fitted and anything you’ve noticed, such as an error code or a noise. Then ring us on 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Air conditioning repair in Upton, done properly
A sealed system shouldn’t lose refrigerant, so a low charge means a leak somewhere. Simply adding gas means it will leak away again. We find and fix the leak, pressure test, evacuate and recharge to the manufacturer’s charge, then record it in the F-Gas records. Typical jobs include a flashing light and a system that won’t run and a unit that has lost refrigerant, across heat pumps, ducted systems and ceiling cassettes.
Many buildings in Upton have a managing agent or security desk, so let us know who needs to know we’re coming. Roof access can need keys or permits, and we plan for that before we arrive.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: commissioning details and F-Gas records for a new system, a note of the fault and the fix for a repair, or a service record. File it with the manual so it’s to hand next time.

How it works
Wherever the system can be run before we leave, we run it and check it in operation. Then we show you what we have done and answer any questions, and anything that needs a follow-up is pointed out there and then. The visit takes as long as the fault needs, from a quick fix to a return visit for parts. A note on parking and access helps us plan a visit to Upton.
- It starts with the symptoms: what the unit is doing, the make and any code on the display.
- At the property, readings and tests narrow the problem down to its cause.
- Once the cause is found, we explain it and fix the price for the repair.
- The fix goes in, with any refrigerant work tested and written into the F-Gas records.
- Before leaving, we run it through its modes and write up what was found and done.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move furniture away from the wall where we will be working
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Mention any parking restrictions near the property

Related advice
What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: is the system in the right mode, is the set temperature sensible, are the remote’s batteries working and has the breaker tripped. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and phone 07833 053749, or email if that’s easier.
Write down what you notice: an error code, a new noise, a drip, a smell or a change in how well the system heats or cools. It makes our diagnosis quicker, and a photo or a short video of the display is even better.

After we’ve gone
How well a system lasts depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Keep to the service interval the manufacturer recommends
- Leave a tripping breaker off and call us
- Turn it off and let ice clear before the visit
Where a repair isn’t worth doing, we say so, and explain why. We can quote for a replacement system on the same visit where that is the better answer.
Sensible use helps. Choose the right mode and a moderate set temperature, and keep doors and windows closed while it runs and the system doesn’t have to work as hard.
Questions from Upton
Is Upton in your area for air conditioning repair?
We do: Upton falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Upton?
The emergency line is open around the clock, and Upton is one of the places it covers. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
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 will work out which band applies to yours.
My system uses R410A. Can it still be repaired?
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.
Why is not my air con cooling?
It can be anything from a dirty filter to a refrigerant leak. We read any fault code and test the system to find which, then give you a fixed price to fix it.
Do you protect the property while you work?
We start with protection: sheets over the floor and nearby furniture. Holes and fixings are agreed with you, and we clean up afterwards when we finish.
What causes water to leak from an air conditioning unit?
Usually a blocked or kinked condensate drain, a failed condensate pump or a unit that isn’t level. Ice that forms on the coil and melts can cause drips too. Turn it off and phone us on 07833 053749 or email us.
A customer’s words
“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.”
