About our air conditioning servicing in Four Oaks
For an annual service, the price is £95–£150 + VAT, and we confirm the figure before we book you in. Larger systems with several indoor units, ducted units or commercial plant are priced on their details. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. If you’re dealing with drips or damp patches below an indoor unit and systems that need a 6 or 12-monthly leak check, we can help.
We plan the trip to Four Oaks and can service more than one unit in one visit, which keeps it simple.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. Where yours does, a regular service with us keeps that side in order, and every service is written up.

When to call us in Four Oaks
When the system cools, water condenses on the indoor coil. Dust sticks to a wet surface, and over time the coil and drain tray can get dirty enough to smell.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Systems that haven’t been serviced for a while
- Leak check records that need bringing up to date
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
For a school like Luddenham School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.
Questions to ask before you book
- Exactly what the price includes, from supply and fitting to commissioning
- Whether they looked at the job before pricing it
- Proof of F-Gas company certification
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Under the GB F-gas rules, responsibility for leak checks is shared between whoever operates the equipment and the engineers who work on it. In a let or managed building, it’s worth agreeing who that operator is and we are happy to deal with whoever it is.
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Let us know who will give us access and who the records should go to, and we will keep everyone informed.
Why act early in Four Oaks
For most systems at or over 5 tCO2e, leak checks are a legal requirement, not a choice. Missing one leaves you without the check and the record, and it’s simpler to keep to the schedule. Booking before summer means the work in Four Oaks is done before the hot weather.
The cost depends on the system and the number of rooms or units, the access and what the work involves. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, from tools and test equipment to ladders and dust sheets. You only need to give us clear access to the units, or their planned positions, and to the fuse board. On site, the work takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Pictures of the space and where the outdoor unit could go let us plan the work in Four Oaks.
- We ask about the system: the make, the number of indoor units and any problems you’ve noticed.
- The engineer switches the system on and checks how it behaves before taking anything apart.
- We clean the filters and coils and make sure the condensate drains away.
- We check the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing, and carry out a leak check where the rules call for it.
- Before leaving, the engineer writes up the visit and talks you through anything worth knowing.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Have the make and model of any existing unit to hand
- Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board

Advice
Questions from Four Oaks
How often should air conditioning in Four Oaks be serviced?
A yearly visit is right for most households. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
Does being near the sea make a difference to air conditioning servicing in Four Oaks?
It can, as Four Oaks is within about 3 miles of the sea, where salt in the air is hard on coils and fixings. Regular servicing, with the outdoor coil cleaned and checked, helps a coastal system last.
Do I get paperwork after the visit?
Yes, on every job. A new system comes with commissioning details, F-Gas records and the manufacturer’s warranty information, and repairs and services get a record of the work.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
The operator of the equipment, working with qualified engineers. Larger systems need regular checks: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e. We will work out which band applies to yours.
Can I do the refrigerant work myself?
The refrigerant side has to be done by a qualified engineer working for an F-Gas certified company. That is a legal requirement, and it also matters for the manufacturer’s warranty. We’re happy to quote for the full job, supply to commissioning.
Can landlords and managing agents book you?
Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting and managing agents, and businesses of every size across London and the South East. Let us know who the records should go to.
When will I hear back?
We reply to enquiries the same working day. For a breakdown that cannot wait, call our 24/7 emergency line.
Keeping systems in Four Oaks running
Four Oaks is within about 3 miles of the coast. Salt air settles on outdoor coils, so coastal systems benefit from regular servicing. Blackbird Cottage, listed at grade II, is one of roughly 3 protected buildings and structures in the half-mile around Four Oaks’s centre. We keep it in mind in case a new outdoor unit is ever needed, as protected buildings can need consent for that.
If you cannot remember the last service, it’s probably due.
