Aerial and satellite dish installation – Rated People
Signs and common causes of TV signal disruption
If your evening viewing is frequently interrupted by screen pixelation, clicking noises, frame freezing, missing audio, or a complete loss of picture, you are likely suffering from a drop in signal strength. Before booking a specialist, you can use online coverage checkers to verify the baseline signal quality and expected channel list for your specific postcode.
While you should expect a high-quality TV aerial to last between 10 and 20 years, a sudden or regular drop in performance is a clear indicator that something is wrong. Common culprits behind a poor television signal include:
- Weather and environment: Severe storms can temporarily disrupt reception, while growing trees or new local buildings can create physical barriers.
- Hardware degradation: Wind and heavy rain can cause aerial misalignment or physical damage to the bracketry over time.
- Cabling issues: Water ingress, weathering, or UV damage to external coaxial cables will quickly short out your signal.
- Internal interference: Signals can be degraded by domestic wireless devices, mobile phones, or poorly shielded household electronics.
How amplifiers, boosters, and splitters improve your picture
A poor picture doesn't always mean you need to pay for a completely new aerial or satellite dish. In many cases, an AV specialist can optimise your existing equipment by introducing signal distribution hardware:
- Splitters: These are used to divide a single incoming aerial feed so it can cleanly connect to multiple television sets across different rooms.
- Signal boosters and amplifiers: When you split a signal or run extensive lengths of cabling down from the roof, signal strength naturally drops. A powered amplifier boosts the signal to ensure that every connected TV receives a crisp, high-definition picture without loss of quality.
An experienced fitter can assess your home's layout and advise whether a simple booster installation or a cable refresh will resolve your interference, saving you the expense of a full replacement.

Costs, planning permission, and choosing a qualified installer
The total cost of your project depends heavily on your location, the height and accessibility of your roof, and whether you require a simple repair or a comprehensive installation.
- Basic replacements: Replacing just a standard digital aerial or satellite dish on an existing bracket typically ranges from £50 to £140.
- Full installations: A complete setup is more labor-intensive. A full installation—including fitting a high-gain aerial or dish, a new support pole, external cabling, and routing a fresh wall socket—generally costs between £120 and £300.

Other TV aerial and satellite FAQ's
Do I need planning permission or qualifications to install a TV aerial or satellite dish?
If you own your home, you rarely need planning permission unless you live in a conservation area, a national park, or are fitting multiple large dishes. If you rent, always get your landlord's written permission first. Because the work involves heights, ensure your installer is public liability insured and certified by bodies like the CAI (Confederation of Aerial Industries) or RDI-LB.
Why is my TV picture pixelating or freezing in bad weather?
Heavy rain, wind, and storms can physically shift an aerial out of alignment or cause water to leak into weathered, cracked external cables. This corrupts the data flow to your television, resulting in blocky pixelation, frozen frames, or temporary "no signal" blackouts.
Can an aerial specialist wall-mount my TV and hide the cables?
Yes, most professional aerial and satellite installers are highly skilled in full audio-visual (AV) setups. They can securely wall-mount your television, chase cables into plasterwork or behind tracking, and neatly connect your soundbar and media boxes for a clean, seamless finish.

Solomon replied to my ad very quickly which was great and he managed to get the heating working in my flat, which it hadn't been. However, the fault light on my boiler came back on shortly after he left and he hasn't been able to provide a report on what issue needs fixing for me to be able to follow up on. He also wouldn't pre confirm an hourly rate or agree costs upfront. He was however very friendly and helpful, if he can provide a report and rectify the issue then I'd happily use him again.
