What we do, step by step

You don’t need to do much on the day. Just let us in and point us to the units, or to where they’ll be fitted, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and we explain what we’ve done. Photos of the existing unit help with repairs and servicing in Cocking.

  1. First, we agree a time and confirm the cost of the service.
  2. Before any cleaning, the system is run so we can see how it behaves.
  3. Then the cleaning: filters, coils, fan and the drain line.
  4. Electrical and refrigerant checks follow, including a leak check if the rules require one.
  5. It’s run once more to confirm all is well, and the record is left with you.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions near the property
  • Let us know where the consumer unit is
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Getting a price

Getting a quote is straightforward. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.

About our air conditioning servicing in Cocking

Some systems need F-gas leak checks by law, and some do not. Under the GOV.UK rules, 5 to under 50 tCO2e means a leak check at least every 12 months, and 50 to under 500 tCO2e means every 6 months. We tell you which band your system falls into and carry out the checks it needs. If you are dealing with ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit and leak check records that need bringing up to date, we can sort it out.

Several units at a home near Cocking can be serviced in one visit.

AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company and NICEIC approved for electrical work, with MCS certification for heat pumps and Checkatrade membership. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

Air conditioning servicing around Cocking

The middle of Cocking is part of the Cocking Conservation Area. Historic England lists about 25 buildings and structures within half a mile of the centre of Cocking, including Cocking Church (grade I). For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building. Cocking is about 47 miles from central London, well within the area we cover from our base in East Grinstead.

A musty smell from the indoor unit is often a sign it needs a service. A service once a year suits most home systems, and some business systems need more.

Cocking is about 8 miles north of Chichester, in West Sussex. Wherever you are in the GU29 postcode area, our engineers can take on air conditioning servicing. Our West Sussex coverage runs to 371 places, and Cocking is one of them. Our Worthing page covers places nearby (18 miles or so).

The closest recent job we can point to from Cocking was on East Street, Chichester (PO19), about 8 miles south: installing a Daikin wall-mounted unit in the dining area and a second unit serving the kitchen pass area.

All of GU29 is covered, from busy streets to back roads. If you need air conditioning servicing at a property on Bell Lane, The Croft and Cherry Close or a nearby road, our engineers can take on the work. We also cover Bepton (1 mile north-west), Heyshott Green (1 mile north-east), Cocking Causeway (1 mile north), Heyshott (1 mile east) and Bepton Common (2 miles north). Further out, we also cover Bognor Regis (12 miles south), Chichester (8 miles south), Selsey (15 miles south) and Littlehampton (14 miles south-east).

Rented and managed buildings

We work for landlords, letting agents and managing agents as well as homeowners and businesses. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork and we’ll copy in whoever needs it.

Running several properties is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.

How we price air conditioning servicing

Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:

  • The size of the job
  • What kind of system it is
  • Whether we need access equipment for high-level work

The cost depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, how easy the units are to reach and what the work involves. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so you know where you stand.

What to send for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:

  • Any previous service or F-Gas records
  • The postcode and whether it’s a home, flat or business
  • A short video of any fault, such as a noise or a flashing light

Some jobs can be priced from photos, while others need a survey. Multi-room systems, commercial buildings and anything with a long or hidden pipe route are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before anything goes ahead.

Questions from Cocking

Do you cover smaller places like Cocking?

Yes. Cocking is within the area we cover across London and the South East. We’re based in East Grinstead and plan each visit so the job can be finished in one trip where possible.

Can you do air conditioning servicing in Cocking?

Yes. Cocking is one of the places we cover. Just phone us on 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few details.

What accreditations do you have?

Can landlords and managing agents book you?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size in Cocking and across West Sussex. Tell us who should receive the paperwork.

Will I get records for the system?

Yes, on every job. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.

How regularly should I have my air conditioning serviced?

Yearly servicing is the usual starting point and more often for systems in constant use. Check your manufacturer’s warranty conditions too, as they may set out servicing requirements.

How long does an air conditioning service take?

As a guide, it takes a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. Units that are hard to reach can take longer and we will let you know before the visit.

Looking after it afterwards

Every system needs looking after, and most of it is easy. Our tips:

  • Check the condensate pipe outside isn’t blocked or crushed
  • Diary the next service before this one is forgotten
  • Hold on to every service report

The best time to book the next service is now, while you remember. Many people book in spring, before the cooling season, or in autumn if they use the system for heating, though any time of year works.

The single most useful thing you can do is keep the filters clean. Most indoor units have filters you can slide out and rinse and the user manual explains how often.

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.”
