TV aerial installation & repairs

New aerials, repairs and realignments for Freeview, Freely and DAB radio, fitted by local engineers who know which transmitter your street can see. We test first, so you only pay for the fix you actually need.

How a visit works

From first call to a clear picture

Step 1
Tell us the problem
Call or WhatsApp with your postcode and what the TV is doing. Most jobs get a price on the phone.
Step 2
We test the system
Your engineer measures the signal at the aerial and every TV point to find the real fault.
Step 3
Agree the fix
We explain what we’ve found and confirm the price before any work starts.
Step 4
Every channel checked
Every TV point is retuned and tested before we leave, and old fittings are taken away.

Repair first

A new aerial isn’t always the answer

Most picture problems are a repair, not a replacement. Water gets into old cable, connectors corrode, wind knocks an aerial a few degrees out of line, and amplifiers fail. Fixing the actual fault is quicker and cheaper than fitting a new aerial, and it’s what we recommend whenever it’s the right answer.

Every visit starts with a signal meter. We measure at the aerial and at each TV point, check which transmitter your aerial is pointing at, and look at the whole cable run. Then we tell you what we’ve found and agree the price before any work starts.

When a new aerial is needed, we choose it for the signal at your address. Surrey’s hills and woodland mean two houses on the same road can need different aerials, and an aerial copied from next door isn’t always right.

When it’s time for a new aerial

The aerial is corroded, bent or storm-damaged
It points at the wrong transmitter for your street
It can’t pick up the full Freeview line-up
You’re adding more TVs and need a stronger signal
It’s in the loft and the roof tiles block too much signal

Aerial services

TV aerial installation, repairs and upgrades

New TV aerial installation

Roof, chimney, wall and loft aerials, chosen for your transmitter and mounted clear of trees and neighbouring buildings, with new low-loss cable.

TV aerial repairs

Pixelation, missing channels and “no signal” traced to the cause: cable, connectors, amplifier, alignment or the aerial itself.

Realignment & storm damage

Aerials knocked out of line by wind straightened, re-clamped and lashed securely, with loose or damaged masts replaced.

Extra TV points

Signal split properly to the kitchen, bedrooms, home office or garden room, with a distribution amplifier where several TVs share one aerial.

Freeview & extra points

DAB & FM radio aerials

Loft or roof aerials for crackle-free digital radio, combined with your TV aerial where possible.

Communal & commercial aerials

Shared aerial systems for flats, landlords, schools and businesses, from fault-finding to full IRS upgrades.

Communal systems

No signal? Missing channels?

TV aerial faults we fix every day

These are the problems we’re called about most. Each one can have several causes, which is why we measure before we quote.

Picture breaking up

Usually a marginal signal: water in the cable, a corroded connector, or an aerial that’s been knocked out of line.

We measure signal quality, not just strength.

No signal message

Could be the TV input, a loose lead, a failed amplifier or the aerial itself.

We trace where the fault starts: TV, socket or roof.

Channels missing after a retune

Often the aerial points at a relay that doesn’t carry every channel, or the TV has stored the wrong transmitter.

We check which transmitter suits your address.

Worse in wind and rain

Bad weather shows up loose fixings, damaged cable and water getting into connectors.

We secure the aerial and replace damaged cable.

Good to know

Choosing the right aerial for your home

Which transmitter?

Homes in our area point at Crystal Palace, Hannington, Midhurst, Reigate or a local relay such as Guildford, Dorking or Alton. Relays often carry only the main public service channels, so the right choice can mean more channels, not just a better picture.

Roof or loft?

A loft aerial avoids a visible aerial and weather damage, but roof tiles, insulation and foil-backed boards all weaken the signal. Where the signal is strong, a loft aerial can work well; where it’s marginal, the roof is more reliable.

Do I still need an aerial?

Freely and other streaming services can work over broadband, but an aerial is still the most reliable way to watch live TV, and it keeps working when the internet doesn’t. We’ll give you an honest view on what you need.

TV aerial questions

Answers before you book

01483 789110

Can you repair my aerial rather than replace it?

Yes, and we always check first. Realigning the aerial, replacing cable or connectors, or fixing an amplifier is often enough. If the aerial itself is corroded or damaged, we’ll tell you and quote for a new one.

How much does a new TV aerial cost?

It depends on the aerial, the mounting, the cable runs and the number of TV points. We give you a price on the phone for most jobs and confirm it before any work starts.

Can you come out the same day?

Most days, yes. Call in the morning and we’ll usually have an engineer with you the same day.

Do you work at height?

Yes. Our engineers are trained and insured for work at height, including tall chimneys and three-storey houses that other installers sometimes turn down.

Will a new aerial give me more channels?

It can, if your current aerial points at a relay that carries only some channels, or can’t receive them all. We’ll check what’s available at your address first.

Do you fit DAB radio aerials?

Yes, in the loft or on the roof, and often on the same mast as your TV aerial.

Need a dish or a wall-mounted TV too?

We fit satellite dishes, wall-mount TVs and add TV points on the same visit.
