Rented and managed buildings
If you look after several properties, we can plan visits across the portfolio and price them together. Every address has its own paperwork, so each one has its own history.
Portfolio owners often want one contractor and one number. Our area covers Greater London and the South East, so a run of properties can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
About our air conditioning servicing in Steeple View
Servicing is also a chance to spot faults early. We listen to the fans, look at the pipework and insulation, test the controls and check the electrical connections are sound, and tells you about anything that looks like it’s heading for trouble. Typical jobs include humming, rattling or squealing from the system and a musty or damp smell when the unit starts, on VRF systems, ceiling cassettes and air-to-air heat pumps.
A service around Steeple View is booked to suit you, and a single system typically takes an hour or two.
We’re an F-Gas certified company, NICEIC approved for electrical work, MCS certified for heat pumps and a Checkatrade member. Refrigerant work is done by engineers who hold the F-gas qualifications the law requires.

How we price air conditioning servicing
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- The brand, model and parts involved
- How far the pipework has to run, and where
- Whether it’s a simple split or a larger system
Every job is different, so each one gets its own fixed-price quote. The equipment, how we reach it, the route between units and the work needed all make a difference.
What we need to know
Simple jobs can often be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- The fuse board and where it is in the property
- Your installation or service records
- The rating plate or label on any existing unit
VAT is set out clearly on every quote, with the rate that applies to your job. Homes, businesses and different kinds of work can be treated differently for VAT, so we confirm it in writing rather than guess. For a fixed-price quote, ring 07833 053749 or write to us at info@aircondoctor.co.uk.

Common questions in Steeple View
Do you cover Steeple View for air conditioning servicing?
We do: Steeple View falls inside our working area. Tell us a little about the job and we will take it from there.
Do you cover smaller places like Steeple View?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. A few pictures and the postcode are enough to get things started.
Can I have a maintenance contract for my air conditioning?
We do. A contract sets out how often we visit and what each visit covers, at a fixed price agreed with your quote. It suits anyone who would rather not track service dates.
How often should air conditioning be serviced?
We recommend an annual service and more often for systems in constant use. Check your manufacturer’s warranty conditions too, as they may set out servicing requirements.
Who has to arrange F-Gas leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, typically whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. How often depends on the size of the refrigerant charge in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least yearly for 5 to under 50 tCO2e, and every 6 months for 50 to under 500 tCO2e.
Do you work on systems someone else installed?
Yes. We look at it first and tell you what we find, including any issues with how it was fitted. Any work is priced before it goes ahead.
How much time does an air con service need?
Expect it to take an hour or two for most homes, and longer where there are several indoor units or a ducted system. Access and the number of units decide most of the time so we’ll confirm the time when we book.

Different systems, different jobs
Wall-mounted, ducted and cassette units
With a ducted system, the unit is hidden above the ceiling. Servicing means reaching the unit through an access hatch, so let us know where the hatch is.
Maintenance contracts
The visit frequency is set around the system and how it’s used, rather than a one-size plan.
What happens on the day
Think of the visit in three stages: look, put right and sign off. First comes a careful look at the system or the space, then we do the work, and finally everything is tested, recorded and explained. The middle part takes longest, and that takes an hour or so for a single wall-mounted unit, longer for a multi-split system. Everything the job in Steeple View needs is worked out beforehand.
- We ask about the system: the make, the number of indoor units and any problems you’ve noticed.
- The system is run and checked before anything is opened up.
- 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.
- You get a service record, with anything that needs attention explained.
Before we arrive
- Clear a path to the units and the space around them
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, high walls or locked plant areas
- Let us know if the building has a permit or sign-in process
