Leak detection and regassing in Canterbury
Flare joints are a frequent leak point on older split systems, so they are among the first things checked on a visit in Canterbury. The South East sees some of the UK's warmest summer days, and south-facing rooms and conservatories feel it first.
If a system in Canterbury has needed gas before, the original leak was probably never fixed. Canterbury sits around 24 miles from Maidstone, inside our Kent area. Homes in CT1 are all within our coverage.
Prices in Canterbury
Our South East England guide price for leak detection and regassing is £300–£1,195 leak find, repair and recharge, VAT included. That is above the UK middle, mainly because labour and access cost more in South East England. The main variables are the number of indoor units, access to the outdoor unit and whether any parts are needed. On our South East England figures, the Standard option (leak in pipework or valve, full recharge) is about £495–£795.
