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.
A TV aerial installer fits, aligns, and tests the antenna on your roof or loft. They check signal strength with a meter, run the cable to your TV, and tune the receiver. Most jobs take 1 to 3 hours depending on access and cable length. Ask if testing is included.
Some installers also fit satellite dishes for Freesat or Sky Q alongside the main TV aerial. Satellite dishes need a clear southern view in the UK and precise alignment with a 1 degree tolerance. Combining both services in one visit usually lowers the total labour cost.
Pixelation, frozen pictures, and audio dropouts point to a weak or unstable signal. Common causes include corroded connections, damaged cable, or a misaligned aerial after wind. The installer checks signal quality, not only strength, because high noise levels also break reception.
Once fitted, the installer retunes your TV or set-top box and checks every channel for stable picture and sound. Ask for a written signal reading for the main transmitter. Keep the invoice with aerial model and warranty terms in case you need service or adjustment within 12 months.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Some homes use a loft aerial fitted inside the roof space when outdoor fittings are not allowed. Signal drops by roughly 30 to 50 percent compared with a rooftop aerial in the same spot. Use a log periodic or high gain aerial in lofts with heavy tile or slate roofing.
