Air conditioning servicing in Wickham, done properly
For homes with one or two units and businesses with many, we can set up a maintenance contract. The visits, the scope and the cost are fixed with your quote, so the system is looked after on a regular schedule. If the problem is weaker cooling than last year and ice forming on the pipework or outdoor unit, we can help.
We plan the trip to Wickham and can service more than one unit in one visit, which keeps it simple.
Equipment warranty comes from the manufacturer, on its own terms, and we set them out on your quote. Terms differ from brand to brand, and we’re happy to talk you through them.

Your questions about air conditioning servicing in Wickham
Will you come out to Wickham?
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.
Does my air con in Wickham need a yearly service?
Typically 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.
Do you offer air conditioning maintenance contracts?
Yes, with visits planned to suit how hard the system works. The price is fixed with your quote and you get a record after every visit.
Who is responsible for leak checks?
Responsibility is shared between the operator, normally whoever owns or controls the equipment, and the service technicians. The interval depends on the refrigerant charge, measured in tonnes of CO2 equivalent: at least every 12 months from 5 tCO2e, and every 6 months from 50 tCO2e.
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. Access and the number of units decide most of the time, and we will give you an idea when we book.
How quickly will you reply?
On the same working day you contact us. Then we agree a date that works for you, and you get a fixed price before any work goes ahead.
Why does F-Gas certification matter?
Companies working on equipment that contains F gas must be certified by an approved body, and the engineers need their own qualifications. It’s how you know the refrigerant is being handled legally and safely.
What a service looks like in Wickham
On the National Heritage List, around 5 entries fall within 0.5 miles of the middle of Wickham; Church of St Swithin (grade II*) is one. Day-to-day work on an existing system is not affected; a replacement outdoor unit on a protected building might be. The Valuation Office Agency’s council tax figures put about 38% of homes across Wickham and its surrounding area before 1919, and about 79% of households live in detached or semi-detached houses, according to the 2021 Census. If the outdoor unit is high up or behind a locked gate, mention it when you book.
If you look after a school such as Welford and Wickham C.E. Primary School, servicing is easiest in the holidays.

Different systems, different jobs
Condensate drains and pumps
Slime and debris build up in drain trays over time. Cleaning them helps with drips and with musty smells.
Maintenance contracts
A contract helps a business keep its servicing and F-gas checks on track and each visit is recorded.
What we are called out for in Wickham
Systems that run most of the year collect dirt faster than ones used on a few hot days. Heat pumps used for winter heating and units in busy offices, shops or kitchens get through a lot of air, and they benefit from regular attention.
Reasons to give us a call include:
- Air conditioning that is not cooling as well as it did
- A musty or damp smell when the unit starts
- Systems that haven’t been serviced for a while
Most homes book one service a year; busy offices and shops may want more.
What your quote should include
- How extra work would be agreed if they find something unexpected
- What paperwork you’ll receive afterwards
- What the manufacturer’s warranty covers and for how long
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, letting agents and managing agents book us, not only the people who live or work in the property. Tell us who the contact on site is and who should receive the paperwork, and we’ll keep everyone informed.
Bigger systems bring extra duties: systems with an effective rated output over 12 kW need a TM44 inspection by an accredited energy assessor at least every 5 years. We arrange the inspection, get the system ready and put right anything it picks up.

What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time agreed with you and check the plan with you first. Dust sheets go down over floors and anything close to the work, and the electrics are made safe before any panel comes off. On site, it takes around an hour for one indoor and one outdoor unit, with extra time for each additional indoor unit. Work in Wickham is booked in advance at a time that suits you.
- We ask about the system: the make, the number of indoor units and any problems you’ve noticed.
- We run the system first and see how it’s performing.
- Filters are cleaned, coils treated and the drain tray and pipe cleared.
- 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.
- A service record follows, with any faults and the options for fixing them.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets out of the rooms we are working in
- Let us know where we can park and unload
- Arrange for someone to be there to let us in
Getting a price
Getting a quote is straightforward. Call or email with a few details and we will come back to you the same working day. If we need to see the property first, we book a survey at a time that works for you.
Advice
From one of our customers
“Excellent service from start to finish. Two wall-mounted units installed in our home. Clean, tidy work: they protected all the floors and left no mess. The systems work brilliantly. Would highly recommend.”
