Compressor overhauls and repairs
Complete strip, inspection, measurement and rebuild of semi-hermetic piston and screw refrigeration and air conditioning compressors, across ammonia and freon systems.
The unit comes apart on the bench and every component is inspected and measured before anything goes back together. You get told what actually failed, not just what was replaced — because on a compressor that has already been rebuilt once, the failure mode matters more than the parts list.

- Mechanical repairs
- Preventative and corrective maintenance

When you'd call us for this
- A semi-hermetic piston compressor on a cold store is running hot and noisy, and the client wants a straight answer on whether it is worth rebuilding or replacing.
- A screw compressor has tripped on a chiller and the site team cannot tell whether the fault is mechanical, electrical or a control problem.
- A unit was rebuilt elsewhere, failed again inside the season, and you need somebody to strip it and say why.
