How a repair works
No call-out lottery. You know the price before an engineer touches your system.
Describe the fault
Not cooling, leaking, noisy, or showing an error code — tell us the symptoms and your postcode.
Engineer diagnosis
A certified engineer inspects the unit, checks refrigerant, electrics and drainage, and identifies the fault.
Fixed-price quote
You'll get a clear repair price before any work goes ahead — no hourly rate, no surprise add-ons.
Repair & test
We fix the fault, test the system under load, and leave you with a working unit and a written summary.
Repairs done properly, not patched over
Real diagnosis, not guesswork
We identify the actual fault — refrigerant leak, failed PCB, blocked drain — rather than swapping parts until something works.
Domestic and commercial cover
From a single bedroom split system to multi-unit office and retail installations, including F-Gas regulated refrigerant work.
Any brand, any age
Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Panasonic and most other major brands — even units we didn't originally install.
Honest advice on repair vs replace
If a unit is old or the repair cost approaches a new install, we'll tell you plainly rather than patch it repeatedly.
Common faults we fix
Units that won't cool, run constantly, trip the breaker, or display a fault code are usually refrigerant, electrical or sensor issues — all diagnosable on a single visit.
Leaks and drainage issues
Water dripping from an indoor unit is almost always a blocked or disconnected condensate drain — straightforward to fix and a common cause of ceiling and wall damage if left.
Frequently asked questions
How much does air conditioning repair cost?
Cost depends on the fault — a blocked drain or sensor issue is far cheaper than a refrigerant leak or failed compressor. We diagnose first and give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there's no surprise on the invoice.
Why has my air conditioner stopped cooling?
Common causes include low refrigerant from a leak, a dirty filter restricting airflow, a faulty compressor, or an outdoor unit that's blocked or iced up. An engineer can usually identify the cause on a single visit.
Why is my air conditioning unit leaking water?
This is almost always a blocked, disconnected, or poorly sloped condensate drain line. It's a common and usually inexpensive repair, but should be fixed quickly to avoid water damage to walls or ceilings.
Do you offer emergency or same-day repairs?
We prioritise units that have failed completely, especially for commercial sites like server rooms, restaurants, and offices. Tell us the urgency when you request a quote and we'll match you with the fastest available engineer.
Can you repair a unit you didn't install?
Yes. Our engineers work on most major brands and system types, whether we originally installed it or not.
Is it worth repairing an old unit or should I replace it?
If the unit is over 10 years old, uses an older refrigerant, or the repair cost is a large fraction of a new install, we'll tell you honestly so you can decide — we don't push repeat repairs on units past their economic life.
