Frequently asked questions
An air con recharge refers to the process where the refrigerant is added to the car’s cooling system so that it can continue to blow cold air effectively.
When recharging a car’s air conditioning system, you need to be prepared with a compatible refrigerant gas. The refrigerant then needs to be measured using a digital gauge to check the diagnostics, this will let you know if there’s anything you need to be aware of such as leaks, and whether the pressure is low, good or over the recommended level. If the pressure is low, the system will be recharged.
If you’ve noticed that your air con isn’t working as it should, it’s a sign telling you that you need an air conditioning recharge. But don’t worry, we have you covered, we offer air conditioning services and can take care of everything and give it a good, thorough clean too.
R J Harvey customer reviews
"Been in a few times recently with my corsa and they have been a great help, they managed to squeeze me in and have a look at my car, I don’t know much about cars but they have always explained it to me and given their honest opinion which has saved me money, thank you for your help will definitely be back and grateful for time!"
"I have used this garage for over 10 years, and now my daughter uses them too. It’s such a relief to have a garage that is completely trustworthy, friendly and professional. I don’t know much about cars, but I’ve always felt confident that they are honest and never try to take advantage. All the staff, including the receptionist, are friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and kind. Highly recommended."
"Just had my car serviced and MOT done, excellent service and very reasonable priced, would definitely recommend this garage."
"Darren and Dan are awesome! I've used this garage for years and they've always taken good care of me and my cars. From MOTs and services to repairs, they're spot on and turn things around very quickly. They don't muck you about, overcharge, cut corners, or look for ways to get more cash out of you. If there's a solution they'll find it and they'll always be straight with you because they're a local business and thrive on repeat custom - and because they're just decent human beings who love what they do. If you want a trusted mechanic - this is your one. So much so for me that I now live in Chelmsford and still prefer to use them than switch to someone closer."
