How much do TV Aerial Installer services cost?

Are you planning to have an aerial or satellite dish installed in your home or property? If yes, then you’d probably want to know just how much it’ll cost to get this project over the line. In this post, we’re going to provide you with a good insight into the installation cost of aerial and satellite dishes so as to help you make the best possible informed decisions moving forward. Let’s take a look!

Just like any other home improvement project, there are a number of factors that can affect the cost of installing a new TV aerial and satellite dish. These factors include the type of aerial or satellite dish being installed, the location of your property, the ease of access and lots more. For instance, different types of aerial require different configurations as well as adjustment which can add to the time frame and overall cost of labour. Also, if you happen to reside in big cities such as London and Manchester where there’s a higher cost of labour, you should be prepared to receive quotes that’ll exceed the usual.

On the average, the price charged by aerial and satellite installers is within the range of £150 to about £250 and takes about 3 to 6 hours to complete by a specialist. Also, if your home possesses tricky access points which prevents the installer from reaching the parts of your home to wire or install the aerial, additional costs would have to be paid for extra resources.  In other words, to get the most accurate estimate, you may have to reach out to a professional to obtain a quote after a visit to your premises.

The table reveals the kinds of service that Aerial & Satellite Installers usually do and also the average price variety of these tasks. Some projects take longer to finish than others so costs do differ by project.

TV Aerial Installer FAQs

What is satellite TV?

Satellite TV is a service that provides its customers with a wide range of TV channels by transmitting signals from a communications satellite. Users around the world can pick it up using a satellite dish mounted on their property and connected to their TV. Satellite TV is particularly useful for viewers who live out of aerial and cable TV range in remote areas.

What LNB is required, Single, Twin, Quad, Octo, Sky Q, Quattro etc

LNB or Low Noise Block simply refers to the feature present at the end of a satellite dish which is attached to the coaxial cables feeding the satellite receiver. There are varying types of LNB which all works in their own special way, however a general function they all provide is to serve as the satellite broadcast signal amplifier and oscillate the signal to a lower frequency band which can be contained by the coaxial cable without too much loss of the cable and the greater the frequency the better the cable resistance and the quicker you’ll lose signal as a result of the cable strength. It should, however, be noted that most LNBs (and not all), oscillate the signal down to the satellite intermediate frequency band ranging from 950Mhz to 2150Mhz.

 

With the availability of a wide range of LNB types, makes and models, picking the right one for your satellite is crucial as the wrong one may imply your satellite will not work. The most common LNB types are single LNBs and Quad LNBs. The major difference between all types is the amount of output possessed by each LNB. This is what allows extra satellite receivers to be added for additional TV points as well as the inclusion of satellite PVRs which features recordable, play, pause and rewind TV services. For example, a single LNB possesses just one LNB connection for a coaxial cable to be attached. This allows you to connect a standard satellite receiver such as Freesat box or Sky. There are also dual or twin LNB, quad LNB and octo LNB which allows for two (or one satellite PVR), four (two PVRs or one PVR and two standard satellite receivers) and eight separate satellite receivers (four PVRs or combination of both) respectively. There are many other LNB types you can choose from with varying features, so it all depends on your requirements.

Do I need a new aerial to receive HD channels?

Not if your current aerial is in good condition and receives a good signal. If you don’t currently get a good signal, you may need to upgrade or relocate your aerial to receive HD channels or if your TV is not HD ready. You may need to upgrade your television if this is the case.

What should I do if I’m experiencing poor TV signal quality?

If your TV picture is pixelated, poor quality, or cutting out, there may be a fault with your aerial or the cables connecting it to your TV. Also your aerial may not be located in the correct place. An experienced aerial company can carry out a survey to discover the fault.

do you need a satellite dish for sky q?

Have you decided to upgrade to Sky’s next generation TV service - Sky Q?  Well, with the 1080 picture quality and a resolution of 3840 which enables you to enjoy your favorite shows in the highest quality, who wouldn’t want to have one installed in his/her home? Apart from the above benefits, you’re also given the ability to record up to 6 shows any time you want, while still viewing a 7th. For many individuals who wish to have the Sky Q installed in their homes, one major concern they all have in common is determining whether or not a satellite dish would be needed. In this article, we aim to help you resolve this once and for all.

 

The short and simple answer to this question is yes, you’ll need a new satellite for sky Q. However, we’ll strongly recommend you hire the services of a professional and experienced engineer who is well trained and skilled when it comes to the correct and safe installation of satellite dishes. They’ll ensure the entire process goes smooth without any form of interruption. With that, you can be sure to get the best possible quality display from your sky Q system while also avoiding any form of potential installation or placement issues with your dish.

 

In general, the sky Q installation process is relatively quick and system. As soon as you obtain your viewing card from Sky, your engineer can start setting up your TV with sky Q.

How to connect a TV to an aerial?

Your TV and aerial need to be connected by coaxial cable for your TV to work. Most properties have wall mounted connection boxes – similar to electrical plugs – that you can simply plug your TV into. If you don’t have a cable, it’s easy to pick up one from most DIY shops.

If you’re installing a new outside aerial, you may be able to reuse the old cable. If you can’t, you’ll need to route a new one down from your aerial to any sockets you need. Coaxial cable can be routed down the exterior of your property, through loft spaces, under floors and along skirting boards.

What receiver do I need?

If you are planning to invest in a new satellite dish, then you’d probably want to know the most suitable receiver to incorporate. If you have this same concern, then you’ve come to the right place! In this post, we’re going to give you a good insight into the world of satellite dish receivers in order to help you make the best-informed decision possible moving forward. Let’s take a look!

 

Firstly, it must be stated that there happens to be a plethora of LNB types, makes and models available in the market today and picking the right one for your satellite is crucial as the wrong one may imply your satellite will not work. The most common LNB types are single LNBs and Quad LNBs.

 

The major difference between all types is the amount of output possessed by each LNB. This is what allows extra satellite receivers to be added for additional TV points as well as the inclusion of satellite PVRs which features recordable, play, pause and rewind TV services. For example, a single LNB possesses just one LNB connection for a coaxial cable to be attached. This allows you to connect a standard satellite receiver such as Freesat box or Sky. There are also dual or twin LNB, quad LNB and octo LNB which allows for two (or one satellite PVR), four (two PVRs or one PVR and two standard satellite receivers) and eight separate satellite receivers (four PVRs or combination of both) respectively. There are many other LNB types you can choose from with varying features, so it all depends on your requirements.

How to install a TV aerial?

The process you need to go through to install a TV aerial depends on the type of aerial you have. If you have an indoor aerial, it’s simple. Just plug the aerial into your TV and stand it up next to it. If the signal isn’t right, then try moving your aerial closer to a window or higher up. Make sure you rescan for channels every time you move it so you know if you’ve made an improvement. It’s also fairly easy to install a loft TV aerial – just take it up into your loft and position it in a convenient place. Again, experiment with angles and positions to ensure you get the best signal. Installing an outdoor TV aerial is a little trickier. Ideally, try to fix your aerial to a wall or chimney at a gable end – this will be much easier to access than a chimney in the middle of the roof. Follow the instructions that come with your aerial for mounting it – it’s usually best to lash your aerial on rather than use screws. If you’re not used to working at height or aren’t confident doing your own aerial installation work, it’s best to get in touch with a professional.
