Should I retune my TV if channels are missing?

Retuning repeatedly can remove stored channels. If channels keep dropping out, the underlying cause is normally an aerial, cabling or signal issue rather than the TV itself.

Do I need a new aerial for Freeview?

Many existing aerials still work fine for Freeview. Older or damaged aerials may need replacing. A signal check confirms whether the current aerial is up to the job.

Can you install a TV aerial in a loft?

Loft aerials are suitable in some properties depending on signal strength, roof construction and obstructions. We will advise on whether a loft or outdoor aerial gives the better result.

Is an outdoor aerial better than a loft aerial?

Outdoor aerials usually receive a stronger and more reliable signal because there is less between the aerial and the transmitter. Loft aerials can work well in strong signal areas.

Can you repair a damaged TV aerial?

Yes. We diagnose the fault, check cabling and connections, and replace the aerial, mast, brackets or cabling where needed.

Can you realign a satellite dish?

Yes. Dishes knocked out of alignment by wind, falling debris or building work can be checked, realigned and retested.

Can you install a satellite dish for Freesat?

Yes. We install dishes for Freesat reception, run the cabling and check the signal across the connected boxes or TVs.

Practical advice

Do not keep retuning your TV if the signal is weak, as it may remove stored channels.
Check whether the issue affects one TV or every TV in the property.
Check whether neighbours are having the same signal issue.
Avoid climbing onto roofs or ladders to inspect aerials or dishes yourself.
If a dish or aerial has moved after bad weather, book a signal check.
For TV wall mounting, check where plug sockets and aerial points are located before the visit.
