Leak detection and regassing across Dorset
If a system in Bournemouth has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. If an older system in your Bournemouth home uses R22, replacement is usually the route, because it can no longer be recharged. Coastal breezes help, but inland South West towns and glazed rooms still see uncomfortable peaks.
Prices in Dorset
In South West England, our guide range for leak detection and regassing is £245–£995 leak find, repair and recharge, including VAT. That is broadly in line with national guide prices. Access, the number of indoor units and any parts are what move the price, and we confirm it before booking. Typical Standard work (leak in pipework or valve, full recharge) lands around £395–£650 in this area.

Refrigerant handling is regulated, so every visit in Dorset that touches the refrigerant circuit is carried out by F-gas certified engineers.
The visit
Visits in Dorset are booked at a price agreed with you in advance. If the engineer finds anything beyond the agreed work, they explain it and price it before carrying it out. A photo of the indoor unit's label and a short description of the problem help us price the visit accurately and bring what is likely to be needed.
