Air con rebuild specialist sought in London region

[MartinH]

Apparently the air con compressor has sprung a leak and the agent's recommendation is to replace it (of course). This is pretty costly. Can anyone here recommend a reliable rebuild specialist in the London region?

When I needed same thing I realised there is nothing left, in UK people stopped fixing everything and always just recommends replacement. Same story for gearbox specialists... there are some so called specialists, but every time you speak with them their default answer - "replace it, we won't fix it, won't warranty it". 

Eventually, I found company called compressor tech which could refurbish the part http://compressortech.com/comptech.php and paid £90 for the job, but bare in mind it was 2016, so not sure what prices are not. Another issue - you would need compressor of the car and post it to them, which means you can't drive and it is kind of hassle. In my case I got used compressor and sent it to be refurbished whilst driving with broken one.
