Tegridy Air provides same-day air conditioning repair across Metairie and Jefferson Parish, from Old Metairie to Fat City, and we actually answer the phone around the clock: (504) 414-8655. Family- and friend-owned, with 30+ years of combined experience on Gulf South systems.
AC problems we fix in Metairie
- No cold air or warm air blowing — low refrigerant, a failing compressor, or a fouled coil.
- Iced-up indoor coil from our heavy humidity and restricted airflow.
- Burnt-out capacitors after weeks of running against 95°F afternoons.
- Tripped breakers, control-board faults, and storm-surge damage.
- Older systems in Old Metairie homes that finally give out mid-summer.
- Water around the air handler — almost always a clogged condensate drain.
Fast, honest service — diagnosis before dollars
Every call starts with a full diagnostic and a written price, so you know the cost before we turn a wrench. Our trucks carry the parts that fail most often around here — capacitors, contactors, motors — so the majority of Metairie repairs are finished in one visit instead of waiting days for a part.
What AC repair costs in Metairie
Typical 2026 ranges for AC repairs in the Metairie area:
- Diagnostic / service call: $75–$150
- Capacitor replacement: $150–$400
- Refrigerant recharge: $200–$650+ (older R-22 systems run higher)

- Compressor replacement: $1,200–$2,800
On an older system where a big-ticket repair doesn’t pencil out, we’ll lay out replacement and financing honestly rather than sink your money into a unit on its last legs.

AC repair FAQs
How fast can you come out?
Same-day in most cases, with 24/7 emergency service when the AC quits overnight.
Repair or replace?
Under ~10 years old with an affordable fix, repair wins. Older units with a dead compressor are usually better replaced — we’ll give you the straight math.
Why is there water by my indoor unit?
Almost always a clogged drain line backing up in the humidity. Shut the system off and call us before it damages a ceiling.
Do you charge for diagnostics?
A flat diagnostic fee covers the inspection, and you approve a firm price before any repair.
How much does AC repair cost in Metairie?
Most Metairie service calls start at $75–$150 for diagnosis, and common fixes like a capacitor run $150–$400. You’ll get a firm written price before any work begins — see the typical ranges above.
Why is my AC running but not cooling?
Usually low refrigerant, a dirty or iced-over coil, or a failing compressor or capacitor — and in our humidity a clogged coil is common. It’s worth a same-day diagnostic before the compressor is damaged.
Do you work on all AC brands?
Yes — our techs repair all major central air, heat pump, and mini-split brands, and our trucks stock the parts that fail most often so most repairs finish in one visit.

HVAC Solutions for All of Metairie LA
We cover all of Metairie, from Bonnabel to Clearview, from Old Metairie to near Lakeside Mall. We’re always close by and ready to help.
HVAC Built for Metairie's Homes and Climate
Metairie is home-base territory for us — we work here every week, so we know its quirks. As Jefferson Parish’s largest community, sitting just south of Lake Pontchartrain, Metairie runs the full Gulf-South gauntlet: months of heavy humidity, a long cooling season, and a hurricane season from June through November. The needs shift block to block, from the historic homes of Old Metairie to the busy Veterans Memorial and Causeway corridors to the newer builds out toward Bonnabel and Clearview.
Old Metairie’s older homes are a good example. Many were never built for modern central air, with tight mechanical spaces and original ductwork — so a ductless mini-split is often the smarter, cleaner fix, and we’ll tell you when that’s the case instead of forcing in a system that doesn’t fit. Closer to the lake, salt and moisture in the air wear on outdoor condenser coils, so we watch coil condition and placement on every install. And for the offices and storefronts along Veterans and Metairie Road, we handle light-commercial systems built for steady, all-day demand.
Across Metairie — Old Metairie, Fat City, Bonnabel, Clearview, and the neighborhoods near Lakeside (70001 through 70006) — we cover AC repair and replacement, hurricane-season tune-ups, high-efficiency upgrades to ease your Entergy bills, and duct work for older homes. Call us at (504) 414-8655.

What Our Customers Say About Us
Absolutely amazing experience! With the recent heatwave my ac was just not keeping up. I was able to schedule a same day appointment for a system checkup. They quickly found the problem and fixed it. Within the hour I had a fully functioning ac again. The technicians were incredibly friendly and explained everything they were doing and described the problems in a way I could easily understand. The price was incredibly reasonable. After work was complete they even stayed a while to ensure everything was working as intended. I can’t recommend these guys enough. They will be the only company I call from here on out
Drew Buller
Very professional, great service. I can’t say enough about how great these guys are. They responded right away and had my air blowing the coldest it’s ever been. I will recommend them to anyone who needs A/C work done.
michael bordelon
I called them on a service call. Because my HVAC was not working. I had a quick response and they sent out a technician. He diagnosed it and repaired it within the hour. Quality service and reasonably priced. I would definitely use them again!
Dave H
After buying an older home I was completely burned through a cycle of faulty or half way work being performed and/or companies that were pushing outrageous sales and upgrades for simple repairs needed. I was emotionally overwhelmed and one month, several thousand dollars, and 3 HVAC companies later still without a working AC. I made a plead on Nextdoor for anyone to help me and recommend a trustworthy AC person and then found these guys and decided to give them a shot. I am SO grateful that I did! I called in the afternoon and they arrived within 2 hours. They checked everything— discovered a simple issue that could not previously be identified, fixed that issue, which was the fault of another service tech, getting my system back running and informed me about other details of my system. They charged me only a service call fee and changed my air filter before leaving. I was almost in tears. My AC has been running perfect ever since! I wish there were more companies like this in every trade— honest, quality inspection and work, take pride in what they do, not trying to just rip people off.
Courtney Coco
Alex and his crew always do a great job, super friendly, and are very fair with their pricing. They are thorough and make sure to explain what they are doing, why they are doing it, and how it will help. They never push products or services on me and will happily answer any questions. My ac went out yesterday, I called at ~4:40pm and they showed up a few minutes later. They resolved the issue quickly and explained what had happened. Highly recommend.
