Leak detection and regassing across Hampshire
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Southampton. If a system in Southampton has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. In the South East, loft rooms and glazed extensions can climb well above the outside temperature on a sunny afternoon.
Prices in Hampshire
In South East England, our guide range for leak detection and regassing is £300–£1,195 leak find, repair and recharge, including VAT. Prices here sit above the national middle, reflecting South East England labour rates and parking and access costs. The main variables are the number of indoor units, access to the outdoor unit and whether any parts are needed. For reference, the Standard option in Hampshire (leak in pipework or valve, full recharge) usually comes to about £495–£795.

The visit
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. Before booking, tell us the make and model and what the system is doing. We confirm the visit price, then the engineer arrives with the right equipment and, where possible, the right parts.
