AC Repair in Greater Los Angeles

AC Repair across Greater Los Angeles

I’m Bram Vance. SoCal HVAC is a one-man, one-truck shop based in Sherman Oaks — and AC repair is something I handle across every corner of LA County I can reach in under an hour.

Most AC calls I take get diagnosed in 15 minutes and fixed inside an hour. Bring me on before you get quoted for a whole new system.

Typical AC repair cost

$140–$520 — Parts + labor. Most single-failure repairs land in the $180–$320 range.

What I see most often

• Warm air blowing from vents
• Outdoor unit humming but not turning on
• Tripped breaker every time AC starts

Usual fixes:

• Run capacitor — $20 part, 20 minute job
• Contactor replacement — $30 part, most common cause of a dead condenser
• Condenser fan motor — $180-$380 depending on unit

Why I don’t have a crew

I ran a three-truck crew from 2019 to 2021. Quality went down, complaints went up, and I was spending all day managing instead of wrenching. I shut it down, bought a single truck, and started taking calls personally again. Business is better — and my customers are way happier.

Phone’s always on: 866-402-5678. If I’m mid-repair I’ll call back within the hour.
