Paul is very professional and has a friendly, personable manner. He contacted me quickly and re-arranged his schedule to be able to fit me in. Paul made a good assessment over the phone and got straight down to work when he arrived. He kept me informed all through the work and told me of any options I might have. Paul worked efficiently and tidily and he completed everything in very good time. Paul's rates are very reasonable and I would certainly use him again. I highly recommend Paul to you.

We booked for a new aerial as we were getting very bad reception. After his checks John found it was an internal cable that needed replacing. He checked the aerial and outside cable were O K and removed 2 old redundant aerials and their heavy supporting pole from the chimney. We were very pleased with his service and the price he charged. He could easily have said we needed a new aerial, cable etc. we would not have known any difference. It is so nice to deal with a genuine, honest, likeable chap.

CCTV / Satellites / Alarms - what you need to know
Aerial and network specialists’ work is all about making sure your home is set up with the right connections to receive digital signals. They can make sure your home network is set up so you can access the internet and have a home telephone line. A lot of the work they do involves fitting aerial or satellite dishes, and resolving problems with existing ones, so you can watch your favourite TV shows of an evening. Often, a reception issue isn’t caused by an aerial but by cabling which will show up when they perform a signal test. A network specialist can also install new TV points in different rooms so that the whole household doesn’t have to watch the same TV channel.
As well as making sure you have access to all the home entertainment you need, a network specialist can also help you protect your home by installing a variety of burglar and fire alarms
What an aerial installer and network specialist can help with
- Fitting an aerial or satellite dish.
- Solving signal problems.
- Adding extra TV points in different rooms.
- Installing alarms – burglar alarms and fire alarm systems.
- Installing CCTV.
- Installing data and telephone points.
- Setting up internet access.
- Repairing or installing data cabling.
- Setting up or resolving issues with your home network.
The qualifications your aerial installer and network specialist needs
In general, an aerial installer and network specialist won’t need a particular qualification but they may need a Part P qualification if any of their work requires them to touch the wiring in your house. To fit data and telephone cabling, a network specialist would also need to have an affiliation with a service provider.
Why do I have no satellite signal?
If you have no satellite signal and you see an error message on your TV screen from your service provider, the problem’s usually down to your satellite dish, cables outside your home or the connections to a TV box (for instance a Sky box). If you have a TV box switched on and you see “no signal” or “no input” on the screen, this is normally down to the connection between the box and the TV. If the picture on the screen looks distorted, the main cause is usually bad weather conditions or a loose connection. In each case, you’ll want to head to your service provider’s website as a first port of call to troubleshoot the problem. If you can’t fix the issue, it’s worth calling out an aerial and network specialist to take a look.
