Large houses with long drives
Several TVs, home cinemas and outbuildings. We plan one aerial or dish system that feeds every room evenly.

Cobham’s large houses, village cottages and long tree-lined drives make for some of the trickiest aerial work in Surrey. Our engineers test the signal at your house, then fit an aerial or dish that copes with the trees.
Cobham’s large houses and long drives make it one of the more involved areas for a TV aerial fitter. The aerial is often set well back from the road, hidden behind a chimney or tucked into the loft, and it may need to feed a dozen TVs across the house, a pool room and a garden office. Our engineers design the system before they start, so every room gets the same strong picture.
Trees are the main challenge here. Oxshott and Fairmile are thickly wooded, and an aerial that worked well when it was fitted can lose signal as the trees grow. We measure on the day, and where the trees have won, we raise the aerial on a taller mast or switch to a satellite dish facing south-east.
In the village itself, around the High Street and Church Street, the buildings are older and some are listed. There the job is about fitting discreetly and protecting old roofs. Whether it is a single new aerial for a cottage or a full distribution system for a large house, our local aerial engineers test everything before they leave.
Where your house sits in Cobham decides most of it. The drawing shows how the signal would reach a home like yours.
Each kind of Cobham home brings its own aerial problems. These are the ones we see most.

Several TVs, home cinemas and outbuildings. We plan one aerial or dish system that feeds every room evenly.

Low chimneys and listed fabric. We use fixings that protect old brickwork and keep the aerial discreet.

Where the trees win, a dish facing south-east usually finds a clear view.
What our engineers find on the roofs in each neighbourhood, from the jobs we do there.
Homes: Period cottages and shops along the High Street and Church Street.
Aerial notes: Older buildings need careful fixings. Crystal Palace usually gives a good picture.
Homes: Large detached houses on private roads among tall trees.
Aerial notes: Trees are the problem. A taller pole, or a dish where the aerial can’t see out.
Homes: Family homes, the station area and houses near the river.
Aerial notes: A good signal on most roofs. Plenty of extra TV points into extensions.
Homes: Village cottages and farms south of Cobham.
Aerial notes: Lower ground and woods, so we often measure the Guildford relay as well as Crystal Palace.
Homes: Older houses near St Andrew’s and the Mole.
Aerial notes: The river valley sits lower. A taller mast helps some houses.
The same engineers who fit your aerial also handle the rest of the TV, satellite and security work in Cobham. Tap a service to read more.

Wi-Fi access points wired through large homes so the signal reaches every room and the garden.
Yes. Our engineers work right across Cobham, including Cobham village, Fairmile, Stoke d’Abernon, Downside, Church Cobham and Oxshott.
Most face Crystal Palace, about 16 miles east-north-east of Cobham. It carries BBC London. Where trees or hills get in the way, the Guildford relay, about 13 miles off to the south-west, can be the better choice. We measure both.
Sometimes, but at this distance from the transmitter the roof tiles cost a lot of signal. Our engineer holds a meter up in your loft first, and says plainly when the aerial needs to go outside.
Usually. A loft aerial, one behind a chimney or one on a rear elevation keeps the front clean. We measure the signal first to make sure it will hold.
Yes, and Downside, Fairmile and the rest of KT11.
