Local reception knowledge

Newbury: close to the transmitter, but not every valley

Newbury is less than ten miles from the Hannington transmitter, so most of the town and Thatcham get a strong signal with every Freeview channel and BBC South and ITV Meridian news. Close to a mast, the problem can be too much signal rather than too little: old amplifiers can overload TVs, and removing one sometimes fixes the picture.

Out in the North Wessex Downs it’s a different story. Villages in the Lambourn and Kennet valleys, and homes tucked behind the hills, can be shadowed from Hannington. We test the signal first, and where an aerial can’t do the job, Freesat gives you the main channels in HD with no monthly bill.

Lambourn’s racing yards, farms and rural businesses often need TV in more than one building. We run cable or install separate aerials and dishes for tack rooms, staff accommodation and offices.

Repair first

We find the fault before we quote

A new aerial isn’t always the answer. We measure the signal first and fix what’s actually wrong.

01

Picture breaking up

Usually water in the cable, a corroded connector or a misaligned aerial.

We measure signal quality, not just strength, and fix the cause.

02

No signal on the TV

The TV input, a loose lead, an amplifier or the aerial.

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

03

Channels missing after a retune

Often the wrong transmitter, or a relay that doesn’t carry every channel.

We check which transmitter suits your address, then retune.

04

Worse in wind and rain

Loose fixings and water in the connectors.

We secure the aerial and replace damaged cable so it holds up.

Newbury & the surrounding area

Town homes, new estates and rural West Berkshire

New estates at Greenham, Sandleford and around Thatcham often come with a single builder’s aerial and one TV socket. We add points to bedrooms and garden rooms, and upgrade the aerial where needed. In Hungerford and Kintbury, older cottages and canal-side homes need neat cable runs and discreet aerial positions.

We cover Newbury and the surrounding villages across RG14, RG18, RG19, RG20 and RG17. Give us your full postcode when you call and we’ll confirm the visit.

Newbury aerial questions

Answers before you book

We live near Hannington but the picture still breaks up. Why?

Too much signal can be as bad as too little. An old amplifier or the wrong aerial can overload your TV. We measure the signal and remove or replace whatever is causing it.

Our village has a weak signal. What are the options?

A better aerial or a taller mast often helps. If the hills block Hannington, Freesat is a reliable, subscription-free alternative. We’ll tell you honestly which will work.

Do you cover Thatcham, Hungerford and Lambourn?

Yes, along with Speen, Shaw, Wash Common, Greenham, Kintbury, Hermitage, Chieveley and the rest of RG14, RG17, RG18, RG19 and RG20.

How much will it cost?

We’ll give you a price on the phone for most jobs and confirm it before we start. No surprises on the day.

Do I still need an aerial if I switch to Freely?

Freely streams live TV over broadband, so it can work without one. Most people keep their aerial as a backup for when the internet drops. We’ll tell you honestly whether yours is worth keeping.
