Heat pump repairs for Bexleyheath homes
Whoever installed your heat pump, aftercare can be arranged in Bexleyheath. Tell us the make and model and roughly how old it is, and we will set out what the visit involves before you book.
Outdoor units in exposed spots around Bexleyheath can ice more heavily, so siting is checked as part of any icing fault. For repeated faults in Bexleyheath, the engineer looks at the system design as well as the failed part.
When a heat pump shows an error, loses pressure or stops heating, an engineer diagnoses the cause and explains the repair and its cost before fixing it.
- Outdoor units that have become noisy, iced up or keep switching on and off
- Heat pumps showing an error code or fault light
- Heat pumps installed by another company that need a second opinion
What's included
- Refrigerant repairs by an F-gas certified engineer where needed
- Reading of error history and operating data
- A clear explanation of the fault and a price for the repair before work goes ahead
- Fault-finding visit at a rate agreed before attending
- System refill, venting and recommissioning after the repair
Across Bexleyheath and Greater London, refrigerant repairs on split systems are carried out by an F-gas certified engineer.
Grants and rules for heat pumps in England
In England the Boiler Upgrade Scheme gives £7,500 towards an air source heat pump (£9,000 if it replaces oil or LPG, from 21 July 2026 to 31 March 2027), and since 28 April 2026 a valid EPC is no longer needed. The grant is applied for by the MCS-certified installer and shown as a deduction on your Bexleyheath quote.

Heat pump repairs in Bexleyheath: questions
How much does a visit cost in Bexleyheath?
The rate for a service or fault-finding visit is agreed before anyone attends. Any repair is priced in writing before parts are ordered, so you decide before work goes ahead.
How often should a heat pump in Bexleyheath be serviced?
Once a year is the usual recommendation, and many manufacturers make annual servicing a condition of the warranty. Check your warranty terms for the exact requirement.
What should I check before booking a visit in Bexleyheath?
Note any error code on the controller, check the system pressure gauge if you have one, and make sure the outdoor unit is clear of leaves or snow. Photos of the unit and controller help.
How much does a heat pump repair cost?
Heat pump repairs have a typical range of £90–£1,100, including VAT, depending on the part and labour involved. Sensor replacements sit at the lower end, while control boards and refrigerant repairs on split systems sit higher. Every repair starts with a fault-finding visit, with a guide price of £90–£180 for the first hour, and the repair is priced before work goes ahead.
Do refrigerant repairs need a specialist?
Yes. Any work on a heat pump's refrigerant circuit, such as tracing a leak, replacing a component or re-gassing, must by law be done by an F-gas certified engineer where the refrigerant is fluorinated, such as R32; units using R290 (propane) need an engineer trained in flammable refrigerants. On split systems the refrigerant runs through pipes inside your home, so leaks there are more likely than on sealed monobloc units.
