How it works
The work area is kept tidy throughout, with sheets down and mess cleared as we go. If we need to drill through a wall, we agree the spot with you first. On site, it takes an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. If a lane or gateway near Slindon Common is tight for a van, let us know and we will plan for it.
- You tell us the brand, the number of indoor units and any symptoms.
- Each indoor unit has its covers lifted so the filters, coil and tray can be cleaned.
- Outside, the coil is cleaned, the fan checked and the area cleared.
- We test the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing.
- Anything we find is explained, with a fixed price if it needs a repair.
Before we arrive
- Find the manual or the paperwork for the system, if you have it
- Make sure someone can let us in at the agreed time
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
Getting a price
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the room or the existing unit, the outside wall or roof where the outdoor unit sits or would go, and the label on any existing unit. Tell us the address and what you need, and simple jobs can often be priced without a visit.

Different systems, different jobs
Maintenance contracts
With a contract, the number of visits, the scope and the cost are agreed in writing before the first visit. It works for one unit at home or many across a site.
Refrigerant performance and leak checks
We check how the refrigerant circuit is performing, checking temperatures and pressures against what the system should achieve. If something points to a leak, we tell you and set out the options.
When something else is needed
We’d rather tell you now than sell you work that will not help, so here are the limits:
- Cooling capacity that doesn’t match the space
- Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
- Lost refrigerant, where the fix is a leak repair
If in doubt, ring 07833 053749 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before booking.
What the work covers
- Ducted systems
- Air-to-air heat pumps
- Ceiling cassettes
- VRF systems
- Multi-split systems
- Wall-mounted split systems
How we price air conditioning servicing
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- The electrical supply and whether a new circuit is needed
- Whether it’s a one-off job or part of a maintenance contract
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 the price is fixed before any work starts.
What we need to know
When you contact us, these details help:
- A photo of the consumer unit with the cover closed
- The paperwork from the last service, if you have it
- Where the property is and what kind of building it is
Our prices page gives typical ranges, but your quote is based on your job, because every property is different. Once we’ve looked at the job, from photos or on a survey, you get a fixed price. To start, ring us on 07833 053749 or send an email.
Slindon Common: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Slindon Common?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few photos and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Do you cover Slindon Common for air conditioning servicing?
Yes. We work across London and the South East from our base in East Grinstead, and Slindon Common is part of that. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Is an F-gas leak check a legal requirement for my system?
The GOV.UK rules set leak checks at least every 12 months for 5 to under 50 tCO2e and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e. With leak detection fitted, the interval can be doubled and we will confirm which band applies.
How much does an air conditioning service cost?
It’s £95–£150 + VAT for an annual service. More complex systems are priced on their details and we confirm the cost in advance.
Is a regas part of an air conditioning service?
The service checks how the refrigerant circuit is performing, but does not include adding gas. If it’s low, a leak repair comes first and the regas follows with a fixed price for each step.
Will servicing keep my manufacturer’s warranty valid?
The warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms. Read the conditions for your brand, as they may include servicing and file every service record.
How long will the engineer be here for the service?
Expect it to take anything from an hour for a simple split system to most of a day for a larger installation. The number of indoor units and how easy they are to reach make the biggest difference, and we will give you an idea when we book.
