AC Refrigerant Leak Repair in Houston, TX

Signs you need ac refrigerant leak repair

• AC can't keep up on hot days, even though it runs constantly
• Ice forming on the copper lines or indoor coil
• Hissing or bubbling sound near the indoor or outdoor unit
• Higher electric bills with no other explanation
• System short-cycling or running without cooling

What happens during the service visit

1. 1We pressure-test the system with nitrogen to pinpoint the leak — no guessing, no 'just add Freon.'
2. 2We show you exactly where the leak is and recommend repair or component replacement based on its location.
3. 3We braze or replace the leaking component, pressure-test again, and pull a proper vacuum.
4. 4We recharge the system to the manufacturer's weighed-in charge and verify performance.
5. 5We confirm cooling to temperature and check for any related stress on the compressor.

How pricing works

Every repair starts with one flat diagnostic fee, and that fee is credited 100% toward your completed repair — so you never pay twice for the same visit. Most common repairs (capacitors, contactors, drain clearages) run $150–$400; larger fixes like compressors or coils cost more. You'll see a flat-rate quote before any work starts.

Repair or replace — an honest recommendation

A leak on an accessible copper line is a clean, affordable repair. A leak inside the indoor coil on an older system often points to coil replacement — and if the system is out of warranty and over 10 years old, a high-efficiency replacement can cost less than the repair within a few years. We'll show you both.
