Your AC stopped cooling. Here’s what happens next.
Call us and we’ll get a technician to your Richardson home the same day in most cases. They’ll diagnose the actual fault — not a guess from the driveway — and give you a repair price before any work starts. The diagnostic is a flat $89, credited to the repair if you go ahead.
Most AC failures in North Texas are not the catastrophe homeowners fear. Capacitors and contactors are the two most common culprits, and both are inexpensive parts fixed in a single visit.
Proud to Serve the Richardson Area
We repair air conditioning across Richardson and the surrounding North Dallas area:

What your AC is doing, and what it usually means
| What you’re seeing | Usually means |
|---|---|
| Running, but blowing warm air | Refrigerant leak, failed compressor, or a tripped outdoor unit |
| Won’t start at all | Capacitor, contactor, breaker, or thermostat — usually a cheap fix |
| Outdoor fan not spinning | Failed capacitor or condenser fan motor |
| Short cycling — on and off, on and off | Oversized system, dirty coil, low refrigerant, or a failing control board |
| Ice on the refrigerant lines | Low refrigerant or restricted airflow — shut it off and call |
| Weak airflow from vents | Blower motor, clogged filter, or duct problems |
| Water pooling near the indoor unit | Clogged condensate drain — cheap and quick |
| Burning or electrical smell | Motor or wiring fault — shut it off and call immediately |
Two of these mean turn the system off now: ice on the lines and any burning smell. Running an iced-up system can destroy the compressor — a $200 problem becoming a $2,500 one — and an electrical smell is a fire risk, not a wait-and-see.
What an AC repair visit includes
Full system diagnosis
Not just the obvious part. We check refrigerant pressures, electrical components, airflow, the condensate system and the thermostat, because the thing that failed is often downstream of the thing that caused it.
A written price before work starts
You get the number, you agree to it, then we work. That order never changes.
Common parts on the van
Capacitors, contactors, fan motors, thermostats and drain-clearing equipment ride with the technician. Most Richardson calls are finished on the first visit.
Honest replace-or-repair advice
If the repair doesn’t make financial sense, we’ll show you why and tell you not to spend it. We don’t sell systems, so that advice costs us nothing.
Cleanup and a working system
We test the system under load before leaving, and we leave the space as we found it.
A follow-up you can use
If the same fault recurs within our warranty period, we come back. Ask the technician for the specific terms on your repair — they vary by part.

These are ranges, not quotes. Your actual price depends on your system, the part, and what the diagnosis finds — and it is confirmed with you before any work begins.
On refrigerant: if your system runs R-22, recharging it is expensive and getting worse — the refrigerant is no longer produced. On an older system with an R-22 leak, replacement is usually the better answer, and we’ll say so.

Why Richardson calls us for AC repair
Same-day repair, 24/7 for emergencies
Most Richardson calls get a same-day slot. No cooling in August and no heat in January are handled around the clock — nights, weekends, holidays.
A flat $89 diagnostic, credited to your repair
You know what finding out costs before you call. And because the fee is fixed, we are never guessing at a diagnosis to protect a quote.
We’ll tell you when not to repair
We don’t sell replacement systems. When a repair isn’t worth your money, saying so costs us nothing — which is exactly why you can believe it.
Your price before the work, not after
The repair is quoted and agreed before anyone opens a panel. No surprises at the point where you have the least leverage.
