A broken air conditioner in a Michigan summer is not a minor inconvenience. It is a comfort emergency. Haley Mechanical provides fast, reliable AC repair across Washtenaw and Livingston counties, with experienced technicians serving Ann Arbor, Dexter, Brighton, Chelsea, Howell, Hamburg, and the surrounding communities.
We Do More, So You Worry Less. That is the Haley commitment, and it holds whether your system is blowing warm air, cycling without reaching your thermostat setpoint, or has gone completely quiet on the hottest day of the year.
Common AC Repair Problems We Fix
Air conditioners rarely fail without warning, but when they do, the cause usually falls into a predictable range of mechanical or electrical issues. Haley technicians are trained to work across all major residential equipment brands and diagnose problems accurately before any repair begins.
- System blowing warm or room-temperature air
- Refrigerant leak or low refrigerant charge
- Failed capacitor or contactor
- Frozen evaporator coil
- Compressor not starting or running
- Condenser or air handler fan motor failure
- Thermostat communication or calibration issues
- Tripped breaker or electrical fault
- Unusual noise from indoor or outdoor unit
- Short-cycling or unit running continuously without reaching setpoint
No guesswork. No overselling. We tell you exactly what is wrong, what it costs to fix, and what your options are. Then we get to work.
Same-Day AC Repair Across Southeast Michigan
Haley Mechanical operates out of three locations serving southeast Michigan: our headquarters in Dexter, our Ann Arbor office, and our Brighton location covering Livingston County. When your air conditioner goes down, our dispatchers work to get a technician to your door quickly, not on a vague multi-day timeline.
We are available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, because cooling failures do not keep business hours. Emergency repair service is available for urgent situations, and our technicians arrive with the tools and replacement parts to resolve most jobs on the first visit.
What to Expect From a Haley AC Repair Visit
Every repair starts with a thorough diagnostic. Our technician will inspect your full system, not just the component that appears to have failed. Air conditioning problems are sometimes symptomatic of a larger issue, and we fix the source, not just the symptom.
Once the problem is identified, we walk you through the options clearly and honestly, including situations where repair may not be the most cost-effective path forward. If replacement makes more sense, we will tell you that too. You get a real recommendation from someone who knows HVAC, not a sales pitch.
All Haley repair work is backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee. If we fix it, it stays fixed.
Repair or Replace: How Do You Know?
Age and repair cost are the two primary factors in a repair-versus-replace decision. A general guideline: if your system is 12 or more years old and the repair cost exceeds 50% of the cost of a new system, replacement typically offers a better long-term return.
Efficiency is the other variable. Older systems operate at SEER ratings well below current standards. A new high-efficiency unit can significantly reduce monthly cooling costs, often recovering the installation investment faster than homeowners expect.
Your Haley technician will give you a straightforward recommendation based on your specific equipment and situation. And if replacement is the right call, learn more about our air conditioning replacement options on the same visit.
Protect Your System Going Forward
After a repair, the best way to prevent the next emergency is a consistent air conditioning maintenance schedule. Annual tune-ups keep your system running at peak efficiency, extend equipment life, and catch developing problems before they become urgent ones. Ask about Haley's Home Care Club for year-round coverage at a predictable cost.
