Common Air Conditioning Problems We Repair
Your air conditioner can encounter a variety of issues over time. Our team is equipped to handle them all, including:

If your AC is running but not cooling effectively, it could be due to a refrigerant leak, dirty coils, or a faulty compressor. Our technicians will inspect and repair the system to restore its cooling power.

A system that won’t start may be suffering from electrical issues, thermostat malfunctions, or a tripped circuit breaker. We’ll diagnose and fix the problem quickly.
3. Strange Noises
Banging, buzzing, or screeching sounds can indicate mechanical problems such as loose parts, a failing motor, or belt issues. We’ll identify the source and perform necessary repairs.
4. Leaking or Frozen AC Unit
If you notice water pooling around your unit or ice forming on the coils, this could be a sign of a clogged drain line or refrigerant issues. Our experts will address the issue and prevent further damage.

- Excessive Humidity – Your AC should regulate humidity levels. If your home feels too humid, it may need servicing.

Called to get leaky water tank replaced. The team sent Jeff over and performed way above any expectation… He is a great tech but mostly a wonderful human being. He was clear and complete in his communications. Helpful and thoughtful the whole way through. Great guy! His knowledge and professionalism shines in what he does, and does well. I have his card and will not ever hesitate to reach out, for anything that may come up in the future. Jeff leads in representing what I like to call “old school” approach to customer service and managing any task or service he provides, from simple to complex. You got a winner there, for sure!
