Complete AC Repair Services

What's Included in Every Service Call

Every AC repair starts with comprehensive diagnostics using professional-grade tools. We don’t guess – we test electrical components, measure refrigerant pressures, check airflow, and inspect the entire system for problems that could cause future breakdowns.

Richmond District’s coastal climate is hard on AC units. Salt air corrodes electrical connections, temperature fluctuations stress components, and older homes often have electrical issues that affect AC performance. We’ve seen these patterns hundreds of times and know how to address the root causes.

You get honest recommendations about whether to repair or replace. Sometimes a $200 repair buys you years of reliable cooling. Other times, continuing to fix an old system costs more than upgrading to something efficient and dependable. We’ll give you the real story so you can make the right choice for your situation and budget.

Most AC repairs in Richmond District can be completed the same day you call. We stock common replacement parts like capacitors, contactors, and fan motors on our trucks, so we don’t have to order parts and come back later. Emergency calls usually get a technician to your door within 2-3 hours. The actual repair time depends on what’s wrong, but typical issues like failed capacitors or dirty coils take 30-60 minutes to fix once we’ve diagnosed the problem.
AC repair costs depend on what needs to be fixed, but we provide upfront pricing before starting any work. Simple repairs like replacing a capacitor typically run $150-250. More involved repairs like fixing refrigerant leaks or replacing compressors cost more, usually $300-800. We don’t charge extra for evenings or weekends during emergencies. You’ll get a written estimate that includes parts, labor, and warranty information so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
Yes, we repair all major AC brands and system types commonly found in Richmond District homes. That includes central air systems, ductless mini-splits, window units, and older systems that other companies might not want to touch. We carry parts for Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and most other manufacturers. If your system is very old or uses obsolete parts, we’ll let you know upfront and discuss your options for repair versus replacement.
All AC repairs come with a warranty on both parts and labor. Parts warranties vary by manufacturer but typically range from 1-5 years. Our labor warranty covers the work we perform for 90 days. If the same component fails again within the warranty period, we’ll fix it at no charge. We also guarantee that if you’re not satisfied with our repair work, we’ll make it right. These warranties are written into your service agreement, not just verbal promises.
Absolutely. This is one of the most important decisions homeowners face, and we’ll give you honest guidance based on your system’s condition, age, and repair history. Generally, if repair costs exceed 50% of replacement value, or if your system is over 12-15 years old and needs major repairs, replacement often makes more financial sense. We’ll explain the pros and cons of each option, including energy savings from newer systems, so you can make an informed decision without sales pressure.
Yes, we provide emergency AC repair service in Richmond District seven days a week, including evenings and weekends.

Call us any time your AC stops working and you need immediate help – we’ll get someone to your location as quickly as possible to restore your cooling.
