A/C Repair FAQ
Can you recharge my car's AC in my driveway?
Yes, once the system checks out. We diagnose first, because a recharge on a system that is leaking does not last. If there is no leak, we recharge it on the spot.
How much does mobile AC repair cost?
It depends on the cause. The diagnostic is $125 up front and carries into the labor when the fix is not electrical. Labor is $125 per hour with no travel fee. After the diagnosis you get the repair price for your vehicle before any work starts.
Why does my AC blow cold and then go warm?
Usually low refrigerant from a leak, a compressor that is cycling off, or an electrical fault in the controls. All three look the same from the driver's seat, which is why we diagnose before we recharge anything.
