Air conditioning servicing in Skippers Hill
People in Skippers Hill book a service for all sorts of reasons: a musty smell, weak cooling, water dripping indoors or simply because it’s been a while. Whatever the reason, the visit follows the same thorough checks. The work covers air-to-air heat pumps, ceiling cassettes and VRF systems, and people most often call us about smells coming from the indoor unit and no service record for the last year or more.
For a home in or near Skippers Hill, a service once a year suits most systems, best done before summer.
Some manufacturers make regular servicing by a qualified engineer a condition of their warranty. If that applies to your system, booking the service on time keeps the record straight and each visit is recorded.

FAQs for Skippers Hill
Can you do air conditioning servicing in Skippers Hill?
Yes. Skippers Hill is one of the places we cover. To start, phone 07833 053749 or fill in the contact form with a few photos.
Will you come out to Skippers Hill?
Yes, and the size of the place makes no difference to how we work. Visits to smaller places are planned so the engineer arrives with what the job needs.
How much time does an air con service need?
As a guide, it takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Ducted units in ceiling voids and outdoor units in awkward places can add time and we’ll let you know before the visit.
Which brands do you work with?
The main ones, including Mitsubishi Electric, Daikin, Fujitsu, Panasonic, Toshiba, LG, Samsung, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hitachi. For new systems, we recommend a brand and model to suit the job and tell you why.
Will I get records for the system?
Yes, always. New installations come with commissioning details, F-Gas records and warranty information, while repairs and services get a written note of what was found and done.
What’s the price of a yearly air conditioning service?
It’s £95–£150 + VAT for an annual service. More complex systems are priced on their details and we confirm the cost in advance.
Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?
Yes, with visits planned to suit how hard the system works. We agree the cost up front and you get a record after each visit.
What happens on the day
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with dust sheets down and offcuts and packaging cleared up. Any holes, fixings or cable routes are agreed with you before we drill. The visit takes anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. We plan the trip to Skippers Hill around you.
- It begins with a few questions about the make, the rooms served and any symptoms.
- Each indoor unit has its covers lifted so the filters, coil and tray can be cleaned.
- The outdoor unit gets its own clean, with leaves and debris cleared away.

- If a repair is needed, you hear why and what it costs before anything is done.
Before we arrive

How to get a quote

How we price air conditioning servicing
Every job gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

- The condition of any existing system
- Whether the existing supply is suitable
Height, access and the distance between the indoor and outdoor units can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before work begins.
Before you get in touch
What to send for a quote:
- The outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits or would go
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is

How the job changes from property to property
Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units
With a ducted system, the unit is hidden above the ceiling. We need access to the unit, its filters and its drain, so let us know where the hatch is.
Condensate drains and pumps
Some indoor units rely on a small pump to move the water. The pump is tested to make sure it works since a stuck pump often means water from the unit.
