Managing agents and facilities teams in St Giles
Facilities teams in offices, schools and public buildings book us too across Greater London. Work can be phased by floor, zone or building to keep disruption down.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease or tenancy agreement normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the records to whoever needs them.
About our air conditioning servicing in St Giles
For homes with one or two units and businesses with many, we can set up a maintenance contract. We agree the visits, what each one covers and the price with your quote, and the servicing happens on schedule. Typical jobs include ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit and noisy fans or rattling from the outdoor unit, on air-to-air heat pumps, ducted systems and ceiling cassettes.
Commercial systems in a London area like St Giles may need F-gas leak checks as well as a service, depending on how much refrigerant it holds. We record the checks and tell you when the next one is due.
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.

What you can do yourself, and what needs us
Owners can handle the everyday basics: keeping the outdoor unit clear, checking the mode and set temperature, and the routine cleaning in the manual. Opening up the units, the electrics and the refrigerant circuit are a job for us.
For air conditioning, cleaning the indoor unit’s filters is the main job owners can do, if the manual says so. They come out, get a gentle clean and go back only when they’re dry. On a heat pump, the equivalent is keeping the outdoor unit clear and checking the controls.
When it’s something else
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Pipework or drainage that was badly installed in the first place
- A unit that was undersized when it was chosen
- Heat gains the system was never sized for
If you are not sure, just ring 07833 053749 and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Where we work
- Ceiling cassettes
- Wall-mounted split systems
- Ducted systems

How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: check the plan with you, put the dust sheets down, do the work, test what we’ve done and talk you through it. The visit itself takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Pictures of the space and the outside wall help us plan the work in St Giles.
- 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.
- 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.
- We explain what we found and price any repair before it’s done.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking and loading
- Give us access to the outside wall, roof or yard where the outdoor unit sits
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
Ask for a quote
Every quote starts with a look at the job, from a site survey or, where the job is straightforward, from photos and measurements. After that, we send a fixed price before any work starts.

Air conditioning servicing in St Giles: the local picture
Valuation Office Agency council tax records put about 49% of homes in St Giles and the neighbourhoods around it before 1919, and Census 2021 figures found about 96% of households live in flats. Outdoor units serving flats can be awkward to reach, so let us know where yours is. London outdoor units collect city dust and grime, so the outdoor coil gets particular attention on a service. Central St Giles is inside the Seven Dials (Covent Garden) Conservation Area. In the mile around St Giles’s centre, 31 conservation areas have been designated. Listed buildings are part of the picture here: about 870 within half a mile of the centre, such as House of St Barnabas (grade I). Should a unit ever need replacing on a listed building or in a conservation area, ask us about consent first.
Businesses close to Tottenham Court Road station can book an early or late slot so the service does not get in the way of trade. For a school like St Josephs Catholic Primary School, maintenance visits can be booked out of term.

Your questions about air conditioning servicing in St Giles
How often do you service systems in St Giles?
Normally once a year for homes, more often for busy business systems. Larger systems holding 5 tonnes CO2 equivalent or more also need a leak check at least every 12 months under the F-gas rules.
How do I get a quote for air conditioning servicing in St Giles?
Send us pictures of the room or the system and a few details about the property. Where photos are not enough, a survey comes first and the fixed-price quote follows.
What do you check on an air conditioning service?
Both the indoor and outdoor units are checked and cleaned: filters, coils, drains and fans, then the electrics, the controls and how the refrigerant circuit is performing. A service record follows.
Do you top up refrigerant during a service?
A service does not include adding refrigerant. If a system has lost refrigerant, it has leaked from somewhere. Where the checks point to a leak, we explain the options for finding and fixing it.
Do you do service contracts for air con?
Yes, and the schedule is set around your system. We agree the cost up front, and each visit is recorded.
What accreditations do you have?
AirCon Doctor is an F-Gas certified company, with NICEIC approval for electrical work and MCS certification for heat pumps. We’re members of Checkatrade too.
How quickly will you reply?
On the same working day you contact us. After that, we agree a survey, diagnosis or installation date that suits you, with a fixed price before work starts.
