Why TV pictures pixelate or channels disappear

Poor reception can be caused by too little signal, too much amplification, damaged cable, loose connectors, aerial movement or faults in splitters and distribution equipment. The symptom at the television may look the same, which is why adding a booster without testing can sometimes make reception worse rather than better.

First Aerials checks signal strength and quality and follows the system from the aerial through the cable route to the affected TV points. That allows the fault to be narrowed down before parts are changed.

Fault finding

Signal testing before recommending equipment

Where reception is marginal, the best improvement may be aerial position, alignment, cable replacement or correcting a poor connection rather than fitting an amplifier. In multi-room systems we also check how the signal is being divided. Once the cause is identified, we can recommend the simplest practical fix and confirm reception after the work.

FAQs

Common questions

How much does TV aerial installation cost in your area?

The cost depends on access, aerial type, mounting hardware, cable route and whether distribution equipment is required. We assess the job and provide a clear quote before approved work begins.

Can you repair an existing TV aerial in your area?

Yes. We test the aerial system, cabling, connections and signal quality to identify whether repair, realignment or replacement is the sensible option.

Do you install Freeview and Freesat?

Yes. We work with terrestrial Freeview aerial systems and satellite-based Freesat installations, including new installations, alignment and fault finding.

Can you add TV points in other rooms?

Yes. We can design additional TV points and multi-room distribution while checking that the available signal is suitable for splitting or amplification.
