Anyone care to recommend one? Coming to the end of a loft conversion, need new aerials fitted, plus a lot of the cable rationalising before the final fitting out of the loft space. Would do it myself, but once the scaffolding is down access will be next to impossible, so it needs to right first time…..

Ta.

how many tv points are you going to.

Current setup is one primary socket which goes to one aerial – two others sockets share a feed from another aerial on the same fixing/same location – a third socket is also going to this aerial as part of the loft work. Not all these secondary sockets are used (and currently none are, and aren’t likely to be all used simultaneously). Previously, bother aerials were in the loft space – they (obviously) now have to go outside and neither they, nor the fittings are up to it. Signal strength is good – on top of a hill with line-of-site to the transmitter.

skyward aerials in Yoevil are ok. bit far out tho.

Thanks ton – yeah, prob a bit far.

easy enough to do yourself.
aerial
cable
splitter
bracket
mast
about £30 plus 7.50 delivery.

Hmmm – I know what you’re saying. Two problems are a) I have no time before scaffolding comes down to DIY it and b) the right-first-time thing…….

[DOUBLE EDIT – I really musn’t]

We had Leigh Collier in. He was great. Backwell Satellite & Aerial.

There’s a bloke in Chippenham, name of Keith Lardner, who used to be a Sky installer, and now does Aerial installations all over the south-west. He’s done various bits and pieces for me; satellite installation and terrestrial aerial replacement, and he’s really good, not stupidly pricey, and does a neat installation. Contact him on 07973 727323 or 01249 661223.
I think he gets a lot of his business from personal referrals, he doesn’t need to advertise too much.

Dave Ford in Cheddar every time, couldn’t recommend anyone else

As follow up to show these threads are useful, and for anyone doing a search in future, I followed ADH’s recommendation and confirm Leigh is a top bloke and has sorted my aerial needs.

tick – need to get a loose aerial sorted on my place!

Clubber – if you use him, mention he got a(nother) recommendation from here. He was pretty incredulous when I explained the route by which I got his number…..

🙂 will do
