Common questions
Is an LG linear compressor worth repairing in Houghton Estate?
On refrigerators still within their ten-year sealed system warranty, yes. Outside it, we quote the compressor and drier replacement against the value of the unit so you can decide on the numbers rather than a guess.
What temperature and humidity should a wine cellar hold?
Twelve to fourteen degrees Celsius at 60 to 70 percent relative humidity. Drift outside that band usually means a failed humidistat, a leaking vapour barrier or a unit sized for a smaller cellar.
Do you charge a callout fee?
A standard callout and diagnostic fee applies and is quoted upfront. It is credited against the repair when you accept the quote.
