In that time, air compressor technology may have changed, but our commitment to providing the best customer service delivered by highly skilled and experienced engineers has remained the same.

Air Compressor Service & Repair in Wem

Air compressors are remarkably robust workhorses, but they require regular care and attention to ensure a long and efficient life. At J Ll Leach, we manage everything from basics like oil and filter changes to complex troubleshooting and complete system overhauls.

We work on all types of air compressors, including:

  • Rotary Screw Compressors: Ideal for continuous, heavy-duty industrial demands.
  • Piston (Reciprocating) Compressors: Perfect for intermittent use in garages or for powering smaller tools.
  • Oil-Free Systems: Essential for industries where air purity is critical, such as food and pharmaceuticals.

As an Atlas Copco Premier Distributor, we have access to genuine OEM parts and factory-trained engineers, but we also service and maintain equipment from every major brand.

Supporting Wem’s Diverse Business Landscape

Wem is an ancient market town with a rich history, but today it is home to a variety of modern enterprises that depend on reliable compressed air to stay productive.

Agriculture and Food Production

North Shropshire is famous for its agricultural heritage. We support local dairy and food businesses with specialised systems that meet rigorous hygiene standards. Our oil-free compressors and micro-fine filters ensure that no contaminants come into contact with food products, guaranteeing safety and regulatory compliance.

Manufacturing and Engineering

From traditional workshops to high-tech engineering firms, we provide the steady pressure needed to power pneumatic tools and automated processes. Our engineers can design and install efficient AIRnet aluminium pipework that reduces pressure drops and eliminates rust contamination in your air supply.

Logistics and Distribution

Wem’s location makes it a strategic point for regional logistics. Compressed air is the hidden power behind moving goods through distribution centres and maintaining HGV fleets. Our Shrewsbury depot is perfectly placed for rapid response to breakdowns, minimising expensive downtime.

Specialist Services for Efficiency and Compliance

Beyond standard maintenance, J Ll Leach offers a range of services to help Wem businesses lower costs and meet legal obligations:

  • Energy Audits: We use data loggers to identify energy waste from air leaks or incorrect pressure settings, often delivering a fast return on investment.
  • Ultrasonic Leak Detection: Even a 3mm leak can cost over £700 a year in wasted electricity. We pinpoint these invisible money-wasters without disrupting your production.
  • PSSR 2000 Compliance: We act as your ‘Competent Person’, managing your legal safety duties by creating and conducting regular inspections of your Written Scheme of Examination (WSE).
  • On-Site Gas Generation: Produce your own high-purity Nitrogen or Oxygen to eliminate the cost and safety hazards of bottled gas deliveries.
