TV Aerial Installation Across the UK

TV aerial installation is the supply, mounting, alignment and cable routing of a UK Freeview aerial — usually rooftop or chimney-mounted, occasionally loft-mounted where signal allows. Group depends on which UK transmitter serves your postcode.

What aerial installation actually involves

A proper UK TV aerial installation isn’t a single product — it’s a survey, an aerial choice, a mounting decision and a cable run.

  1. Signal survey. Which UK transmitter serves your postcode? What aerial group (A, B, C/D, E, K, T or wideband) does it broadcast on? What’s the bearing from your roof? Our postcode → transmitter tool answers all three before an engineer is dispatched.
  2. Aerial choice. Yagi, log-periodic or high-gain — the right one depends on signal strength, predicted multipath, and whether you’re in a known black spot. We don’t sell aerials; we specify them.
  3. Mounting. Chimney-lashed (most common), wall-mounted, T&K bracket, or loft-mounted in strong-signal areas. Each has trade-offs.
  4. Cable routing. RG6 satellite-grade coax, F-connector terminated, weatherproofed. One outlet or distributed to multiple rooms.

Why prices are not published

Every installation is different — a single-storey bungalow with line-of-sight to the transmitter and a 15-minute job is not the same product as a Victorian terrace with a chimney rebuild required.

We won’t publish a “from £X” headline rate that we can’t honour. Instead, the installer covering your postcode gives you a fixed quote after a five-minute conversation about your roof, your access and your reception history. That quote is what you pay.

What you get

  • A CAI-registered installer who actually lives and works in your area.
  • A signal survey before any work begins.
  • A 12-month workmanship guarantee.
  • Honest advice — if a loft aerial will do, we’ll tell you. If you don’t need a new aerial at all (sometimes it’s the cable, sometimes the splitter), we’ll tell you that too.
