A simple swap of an existing aerial takes about 1 hour. A new install with cabling, brackets, and tuning runs 2 to 3 hours. Adding multiple rooms or chasing cables inside walls takes longer. Ask the installer to confirm the expected time before booking the visit.
Cables run through walls, loft spaces, or external trunking, depending on the building. Drill neat 6 to 10 mm holes, seal them with silicone, and fit proper grommets to block damp. Avoid running aerial cable next to mains wiring, which can inject noise into the signal.
A TV aerial installer can fix the aerial to a chimney, a wall, or a fascia board using steel brackets. Stainless or galvanised brackets resist rust for 10 years or more. Pick a mount rated for at least 1.5 times the aerial weight to handle strong gusts.
Yagi aerials are common for strong-signal areas and pick up one band well. Log periodic models handle a wider frequency range, useful for full Freeview. Grid aerials resist moisture and wind, fitting coastal or exposed homes. Ask the installer which type matches your nearest transmitter.
Running the aerial feed to several rooms takes extra cable, wall plates, and splitters. Each split weakens the signal, so larger homes often need a 4 way or 8 way masthead amplifier. Plan the room count before drilling to avoid extra visits later.
Price depends on aerial type, mast height, cable length, and wall fixings. A standard fit on a single-storey home costs less than a chimney mount on a three-storey house. Extra TV points, amplifiers, and cable routing through lofts add labour time. Get a written breakdown before work starts.
Older wideband aerials from the analogue era often underperform on digital signals. Replacing them with a modern group K aerial matched to your transmitter improves picture quality on weak channels. The bracket, cable, and fixings usually age faster than the aerial itself.
The installer points the aerial at the nearest transmitter using a compass and a signal meter. A higher mast, often 3 to 6 metres, clears trees and rooftops that block the line of sight. Small height gains of 1 metre can lift weak signals above the usable threshold.
Pixelation, freezing, or missing channels usually mean weak signal, damaged cable, or corroded connectors. Old coax loses quality after 10 to 15 years. An installer checks the full run, replaces cracked insulation, and reseals outdoor joints to stop water entering the cable.
Strong winds, heavy rain, and falling branches shift aerials or crack plastic casings. After any major storm, check the alignment and the condition of the cable clips. A loose aerial can also damage tiles and allow water into the loft over time.
