Air conditioning servicing for Lewisham

How we handle air conditioning servicing in Lewisham

An annual service is £95–£150 + VAT, confirmed before the visit is booked. Multi-split, ducted and commercial systems are priced once we know what’s there. Either way, you know the cost before the engineer arrives. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, VRF systems and wall-mounted split systems, and people most often call us about F-gas leak checks falling due and weaker cooling than last year.

Systems in Lewisham often run in both summer and winter, so a yearly service keeps them efficient. In London, outdoor coils collect dust, grime and leaves, and a clean coil cools better.

If a fault appears while the equipment is under the manufacturer’s warranty, tell us the make, model and installation date. We will tell you how the manufacturer’s warranty is likely to apply before any chargeable work goes ahead.

Air conditioning servicing around Lewisham

About 37% of homes in and around Lewisham were built before 1919, according to the Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures, and the 2021 Census found about 69% of households live in flats. In flats, outdoor units are often on balconies, roofs or high walls, so tell us how we reach yours. City dust and debris build up on London outdoor units, which is why servicing matters. The Mercia Grove Conservation Area lies close to the centre of Lewisham, within about a third of a mile. Draw a one-mile circle round the middle of Lewisham and it takes in 12 conservation areas. On the National Heritage List, around 45 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Lewisham; St Mary's Vicarage (grade II*) is one. For most visits that makes no difference. It only comes up when an outdoor unit has to be replaced on a protected building.

If you look after a school such as St Saviour's Catholic Primary School, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

What air conditioning will not do

We won’t sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • A failed compressor, fan motor or circuit board, which needs a repair
  • Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
  • A unit that was undersized when it was chosen

If in doubt, phone 07833 053749 or send an email and we will say what we think.

What we work on in Lewisham

  • Ceiling cassettes
  • Wall-mounted split systems

What we are called out for in Lewisham

Vibration and temperature changes can loosen electrical connections over time. A loose connection can cause faults that come and go, so the engineer checks them as part of the service.

What we are most often called about:

  • Frost or ice on the refrigerant pipes
  • A unit showing a fault code
  • Air conditioning that is not cooling as well as it did

Offices and shops near Lewisham station can have their systems serviced without closing.

Questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

The visit goes in the diary at a time that works for you, and we let you know if plans need to move. When we arrive, we check the job against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, it takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. In a London area like Lewisham, parking and access are worth sorting out before the day.

  1. First, we agree a time and confirm the cost of the service.
  2. We switch the system on and check it in operation.
  3. Then the cleaning: filters, coils, fan and the drain line.
  4. We check the wiring, controls and refrigerant circuit, and leak check systems that need it.
  5. A final test run follows, then you get the service record.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure we can reach the consumer unit or fuse board
  • Plan for pets to be kept clear during the visit
  • Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits

Questions from Lewisham

Is Lewisham in your area for air conditioning servicing?

We do: Lewisham falls inside our working area. Get in touch with the details and we reply the same working day.

How often do you service systems in Lewisham?

Once a year suits most home systems. Some manufacturers’ warranty terms ask for regular servicing, so it’s worth keeping the records.

Can I do any of the installation myself?

No, not the refrigerant side. Under the F-gas rules, it must be done by qualified engineers from a certified company, and a new circuit is notifiable under Part P unless a registered electrician, such as a NICEIC approved contractor, does it.

How long will the engineer be here for the service?

Expect it to take a short visit for one split system, longer for multi-split, ducted or commercial plant. The number of indoor units and how easy they are to reach make the biggest difference so we will confirm the time when we book.

Will servicing keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?

The warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms. Check your brand’s conditions, which may mention servicing, and keep each service record with the warranty paperwork.

What does F-Gas certified mean?

Certification shows a business is approved to work on systems that hold F gas refrigerant. In Great Britain, that certification is a legal requirement, not an optional extra, and we hold it.

Do you offer maintenance contracts?

Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule with a fixed price. That can include the leak checks the F-gas rules require for larger systems.

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.”
