Freesat Installation

• New Freesat dish installation – A complete satellite system for properties without a suitable dish.
• Freesat box and dish installation – Installation of the dish, cabling and customer-supplied Freesat box.
• Existing dish upgrades – Adapt a suitable satellite dish for your chosen Freesat equipment.
• Freesat dish replacement – Replace damaged or unreliable satellite dishes.
• Dish realignment – Correct a dish that has moved and is affecting reception.
• LNB replacement – Fit the correct LNB for your Freesat box or compatible television.
• Satellite cable replacement – Replace damaged or poorly performing cable.
• Freesat signal fault finding – Identify the cause of missing channels or a complete loss of signal.
• Freesat in additional rooms – Connect more televisions to the same satellite dish where the system allows.

We’ll check any equipment already installed before recommending a completely new Freesat dish.

We offer same-day and next-day local appointments where possible. Our engineers are equipped to complete most straightforward Freesat installations in a single visit from around 60 minutes, depending on access and the cable route required.

Once the system is installed, we’ll align the dish and test the satellite signal. We can also connect your Freesat box and check that the available channels are working before we leave.

This means no waiting around for several appointments before you can start watching Freesat.

To watch Freesat, you’ll need a suitable satellite signal and either a Freesat box or a TV with Freesat built in.

A Freesat box connects to the dish by satellite cable, then to your TV through HDMI. Recordable boxes usually need two satellite feeds, and the features available can depend on the LNB already fitted to the dish.

So in addition to installing the Freesat dish, we can also run the required cabling and connect to your Freesat box. We’ll also check that the existing setup is compatible, as not every Freesat box will work with every type of LNB.

You can watch live Freesat channels without broadband. Connecting the box to the internet simply gives you access to supported catch-up services and software updates.
