Satellite installers and dish repairs in Kingston

Sky and Freesat dish installers and repairers in Kingston

Kingston has many flats where residents want Sky. Our satellite engineers add satellite feeds to shared systems and fit dishes on houses in New Malden and Chessington.

Kingston has many flats where residents want Sky, and repairs are often in shared satellite systems. In New Malden and Chessington, we realign dishes knocked by roof work and replace LNBs that have failed.

Repairs are as big a part of our satellite work in Kingston as new dishes. In blocks, one failed multiswitch can take out satellite for every flat, so we repair the shared kit first. On terraces, dishes on chimneys and back walls get knocked by roofers and scaffolders more than anywhere else. Our engineers repair Sky and Freesat dishes whoever fitted them: realigning, replacing LNBs and brackets, and fixing the cable to each room.

From Kingston the satellites sit about 25° above the horizon at roughly 145° on a compass. That is lower than most people expect, so a neighbour’s tree or a new loft conversion can block a dish that has been fine for years. Our engineers check the line from Kingston town centre to Chessington before choosing a spot.

Flats rarely allow a dish per balcony, so we fit one shared dish with a multiswitch that serves every flat in the building. Terraces usually take the dish on the back wall or the rear chimney, with the cable brought in once and split to the rooms that need it. In big houses the dish usually feeds a multiswitch, so the lounge, kitchen, bedrooms and garden room can all watch something different.
