About our air conditioning repair in Woolwich
When air conditioning stops cooling, leaks water or shows an error code, the symptom rarely tells you the cause. Warm air can mean anything from a dirty filter to a sensor, board or refrigerant fault, which is why diagnosis comes first. If the problem is an error code or flashing light on the unit and air conditioning running but not cooling, we can help.
Many buildings in Woolwich 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.
Any work on the refrigerant circuit is recorded: what was done, the refrigerant type and any amount added or recovered. Keep the records with the manual and the warranty documents, as a manufacturer or a future engineer may ask to see them.

Your questions about air conditioning repair in Woolwich
Is there an emergency air con repair line for Woolwich?
Yes: ring the emergency line, day or night, from anywhere in Woolwich. Say what the system is doing and whether it shows a code, and we will advise on the next step.
Do you cover Woolwich for air conditioning repair?
Yes. Woolwich is one of the places we cover. Tell us a little about the job and we’ll take it from there.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. Homeowners, landlords, agents and businesses all book us across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
My system uses R22. Can it be repaired?
Most of the time, we recommend replacement. R22 cannot be topped up with new gas, and parts for old models are scarce, so a new system on a modern refrigerant is normally the better investment.
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 diagnose the fault on site.
How much does an air conditioning repair cost?
It starts with a diagnosis call-out from £75 + VAT, and then you get a fixed price for the repair. Nothing goes ahead without your agreement.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For simple jobs, pictures and a few details can be enough, while bigger systems and repairs that need testing get a visit.
How it works
Testing is the last part of the visit wherever the system can be switched on. 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. All told, the work takes an hour or two to diagnose most faults, with the repair time depending on what we find. For a job in Woolwich, tell us about parking, permits and access to the building when you get in touch.
- Tell us the make, the symptoms and any error code, and send a photo of the display if you can.
- The engineer reads the fault codes and checks the electrics, airflow, drain and refrigerant circuit.
- We explain the cause and give you a fixed price for the repair before any work goes ahead.
- With your agreement the part is replaced or the fault put right, and refrigerant work goes in the F-Gas log.
- We run the system, check it’s working properly and note anything else that needs attention.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the indoor unit, or where it will go
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Clear access to the fuse board
Getting a price
Every quote shows the VAT clearly, and the rate that applies to your job is stated. VAT can differ between homes and businesses and between kinds of work, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or drop us a line.

Owner checks or an engineer?
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keep the outdoor unit clear of leaves, plants and clutter, check the settings and the remote, and follow the cleaning the manual describes. Anything inside the units, the electrics and the refrigerant is engineer’s work.
Before you call us about a fault, a few checks can save a visit: check the mode, the set temperature, the remote’s batteries and the breaker. If the breaker trips a second time, leave it off and phone us on 07833 053749.

Woolwich’s centre falls inside a designated conservation area. Historic England lists about 61 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Woolwich, including Woolwich Town Hall (grade II*). We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that. About 31% of homes in and around Woolwich have been built since 2000, according to Valuation Office Agency council tax records, and the last census (2021) found about 72% of households live in flats. In flats, outdoor units are often on balconies, roofs or high walls, so tell us how we reach yours. London repairs often depend on reaching the outdoor unit, so access details help us plan.
