How Much Do Air Conditioner Repairs Cost?
We know the first thing on your mind is the price. While we can’t give you an exact number until we take a look at your system, we’ll get you that information as soon as we’ve done an inspection. Here’s what we can tell you right now:
- Some repairs cost more than others. Smaller fixes like clogged drain lines, dirty filters, or failed capacitors are on the lower end. Larger repairs, like compressors or control boards, are at the top of the scale.
- You’ll always get a clear, upfront quote. Once we’ve diagnosed the problem, we’ll explain what’s needed and the exact cost. Once you give the go-ahead, we’ll start right away.
- We come prepared so you’re not waiting on us. Most of the time, we can make the repair right then and there. If a special part does need to be ordered, we’ll tell you exactly what to expect and keep things moving quickly.
Our pricing is fair, our work is done by licensed and trained technicians, and we show up when we say we will. Friendly, reliable, and thorough—you really can’t ask for much else! Schedule your Serra Mesa air conditioning repair today.
Fast AC Repair Services That Fully Solve the Problem
Your air conditioner doesn’t have to completely quit for it to need service. If it’s cycling on and off too often, blowing warm air, or making new noises, running it anyway can cause more damage. If something doesn’t seem right, it usually isn’t. Guthrie & Sons can track it down and fix it. Here are some of the most common air conditioning repairs we see in Serra Mesa:
Keep Repairs Rare and Summers Comfortable With Our Maintenance Plan
A lot of the AC repairs we’re called out for in Serra Mesa could have been prevented with simple, routine maintenance. When filters clog, coils collect dust, or refrigerant levels drop, your system has to work twice as hard to keep up. That drives up your energy bills, wears out parts faster, and often leads to breakdowns during the hottest days of the year.
That’s why every manufacturer recommends annual maintenance. A yearly tune-up each spring gives us the chance to clean the system, spot issues early, and make sure your air conditioner is ready for the increase in usage.
You can always schedule air conditioning maintenance with us, but if you’d rather not have to remember it yourself, our USA Membership Plan takes care of it for you. We’ll keep your system on a regular schedule and give you a whole bunch of exclusive benefits!

I only wish the annual service was cheaper 🙂
Carson C. and Michael J. came by to install our unit. They were on time, extremely professional and worked diligently to complete everything. They listened to our needs throughout and made adjustments to our specifications. Carson did not leave until we were totally happy with our unit.
This was a great experience all around and I gladly recommend Guthrie and Son's for all your HVAC needs.
From start to finish, their team was outstanding. They worked incredibly hard, treated our home with respect, and left everything spotless—truly the cleanest job site I’ve ever seen after a major project. The installation itself was seamless, and the quality of their work shows in every detail.
If you’re looking for a company that combines deep knowledge, excellent craftsmanship, and genuine care for their customers, Guthrie & Sons is it. Absolutely five stars across the board!
What really stood out was his problem-solving ability and willingness to go the extra mile to ensure everything was operating as it should. He communicated clearly throughout the process, kept us updated, and made sure we felt confident in the work being done.
It’s not often you come across someone who combines technical expertise with such a strong work ethic and positive attitude. We’re very grateful for his efforts and would highly recommend Kareen to anyone needing reliable HVAC service.
Vlad came out to provide an estimate and was able to size an HVAC system that worked well for my house.
They installed it quickly, without issue and helped me set up an app on my phone to control.
The system is working great to heat and cool my house and is whisper quiet.
Highly recommend going with Guthrie and Sons if you want a high quality experience for large and important purchases.
