How Aerial Installation Works

1. Free Site Survey

Roger visits your property to assess signal strength using professional metering equipment. He'll check the direction of the nearest transmitter (most of Colchester and Essex receive from the Sudbury transmitter), identify any obstructions, and recommend the right aerial type and position.

2. Installation

The aerial is mounted on a pole attached to the chimney stack, fascia board or wall bracket — whichever gives the strongest, most reliable signal. Cable is routed neatly down the outside of the property and brought inside through a drilled entry point, sealed to prevent water ingress.

3. Testing & Handover

Every Freeview channel is scanned and tested to ensure a clean, strong signal with no breakup. We show you how to retune if needed and leave the property exactly as we found it. Most aerial installations are completed within 2–3 hours.

Our Guarantee

All aerial installations come with a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If your signal drops, a connection comes loose, or anything isn't right, call us and we'll come back and fix it at no extra cost. We carry full public liability insurance for your peace of mind.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does an aerial installation cost?
A new aerial installation typically costs between £100–£200 depending on the aerial type, mounting position and cable run length. Repairs and re-alignments start from around £60. We provide an exact price before starting any work — no call-out charge and no obligation.
Do I need a new aerial for Freeview?
If your existing aerial is more than 10–15 years old, it may be an analogue wideband type that picks up interference on digital frequencies. A modern grouped aerial tuned to your local transmitter will give a cleaner signal and more reliable Freeview reception.
Why is my TV signal breaking up?
Common causes include a damaged or corroded aerial, waterlogged cable, loose connections, or a weak signal that needs amplifying. We carry diagnostic equipment to pinpoint the issue on site and fix it the same day in most cases.
Can you add TV points to other rooms?
Yes. We run cable from your existing aerial to any room in the house. If the signal needs splitting across multiple outlets, we install a distribution amplifier to maintain picture quality on every TV.
What's the difference between Freeview and Freesat?
Freeview uses a rooftop aerial to receive digital terrestrial channels. Freesat uses a satellite dish to receive free-to-air satellite channels. Freesat is a good option in areas with poor terrestrial signal, or if you want access to additional HD channels without a subscription.
