Local garage should help you with this.

Cheapest repair will be just a gas recharge.

You can do this yourself with a air con recharge kit from Halford's. Trouble is, if there's a leak somewhere it will just dump the gas. A garage can check the system for leaks and advise.

Good luck

Just get it regassed. But when you do, get them to put a dye in so if their is a leak, you won’t have to do this again and can rectify.

It's the only thing I ever use a Kwik Fit for and I'll usually strike up some chat with them and chat about their own cars if they look semi decent, but it's pretty fool proof as they just hook it up to the machine and the rest is automatic - including checking for leaks I believe.
