Urgent Breakdowns
Dead unit on the hottest afternoon of the year. Diagnosed, priced and, in most cases, running again the same day.
Dead unit on the hottest afternoon of the year. Diagnosed, priced and, in most cases, running again the same day.
Nitrogen pressure test, electronic sniffer, dye where needed. We seal the escape route before any gas goes back in.
Hard-start faults, humming without rotation, tripping breakers. Electrical work carried out and tested under load.
Single heads, multi-head systems and older sleeve units all get the same treatment, whoever installed them originally.
Blocked condensate lines, matted evaporator fins, filters nobody has lifted since installation. Cleaned, flushed and re-tested.
Short cycling, a room that reads five degrees wrong, remotes that talk to nothing. Wiring and sensors verified end to end.
Sound familiar
Telling us which one matches your unit lets the engineer load the right spares before setting off, and it shortens the visit considerably.
The fan sounds healthy but the room never drops. Nine times out of ten this is a tired capacitor, a dirty condenser face or a charge that has slowly walked out through a joint.
How we trace itIce on the copper or the indoor coil is a symptom, never the illness. Starved airflow and low refrigerant both look identical from the outside, and only pressures tell them apart.
What we checkPuddles under the indoor head, a grinding bearing, a musty draught on start-up. These rarely stop the unit today, and they reliably become the expensive fault next month.
Book a look
When it cannot wait
A nursery, a server cupboard, a bedroom with a newborn in it — some rooms simply have to come down in temperature tonight. Our late line is staffed by an engineer, not an answering service, and there is no premium added to weekend or evening labour.
Call the urgent lineHow we work
Swapping components until the cold returns is quick, expensive and dishonest. We would rather spend forty minutes with gauges and a clamp meter and hand you one part to pay for instead of four.
Subcooling, superheat, amp draw and delta-T are written down before anything is opened. Those four numbers settle most arguments about what is actually wrong.
Should a joint we brazed or a board we fitted let go through our own error, we come back and put it right without an invoice.
Run capacitors, contactors, float switches, fan motors and a charging kit live in the van, because those five items cover the bulk of summer failures.
Five readings, one conclusion: the charge had walked out through a weeping flare joint. The compressor was drawing exactly what the plate says it should. Quoted as a repair, not a replacement.

Start to finish
Tell us what the unit does and when it started. Plain language is fine — the engineer translates.
Start hereGauges, meter and eyes on the equipment. You get the actual readings, not a verdict from thin air.
Our methodA written price per option lands in front of you. Accept one, postpone, or turn everything down.
View ratesWork completed, temperatures re-measured, and the closing numbers emailed to you that evening.
Ask a question
Still warm in there?
One phone call, a two-hour arrival slot and a fixed price agreed before a single part comes out of the van.
Leave a number and an engineer rings you back inside one working hour — no charge until you have agreed a figure.
