Victorian terraces
Rows of terraces with shared chimneys. A tidy replacement fixes most faults.

Long terraces running down to the river, the old naval houses at Brompton and newer estates at Hempstead. Bluebell Hill is close, so a well-fitted aerial almost always gives a strong picture.
Gillingham’s long terraces run down towards the river, with the old naval houses at Brompton and newer estates at Hempstead and Wigmore. Bluebell Hill is close, and our aerial engineers usually find a strong signal. On the terraces, shared chimneys and old aerials are common. Our TV aerial fitters replace them neatly. Brompton is a conservation area, where aerials need to be hidden. Hempstead homes are newer and loft aerials often work well.
Rented homes make up a big part of our Gillingham work. Landlords and letting agents call when a tenant reports lost channels, and our aerial engineers trace the fault, fix it and confirm in writing that every room works. On the streets near the Strand and the river, salt in the air shortens the life of low-grade connectors, so we use sealed fittings that hold up better. If you are moving into a Gillingham house and are not sure what the aerial is like, send us a photo of the roof and our team will tell you what they see.
Where your house sits in Gillingham decides most of it. The drawing shows how the signal would reach a home like yours.

Aerials are only part of the work. Here is what else Gillingham customers book us for, all done by our own engineers.

TVs mounted in Gillingham homes, with no wires on show. We bring fixings for brick, block and plasterboard, and can fit a sound bar in the same visit.

Satellite dishes for Sky or Freesat across Gillingham. Multiroom feeds and recorders set up, with every box tested before we go.

TV points added in Hempstead family homes. Common where a loft room or extension has no TV socket yet.

Aerial repairs on Gillingham terraces. If a repair is not worth doing, we say so plainly and explain the alternative.

Cameras for Gillingham homes and shops. See our Gillingham CCTV page. Cameras are planned around your doors, drive and garden, and set up on your phone.

Freesat for Gillingham homes wanting HD without a subscription. An old Sky dish can often be reused, which keeps the job quick and tidy.
Yes. Our engineers work right across Gillingham, including Gillingham town, Brompton, Hempstead and Wigmore, Brompton and Hempstead.
Most face Bluebell Hill, about 5 miles south-south-west of Gillingham. It carries BBC South East Today.
Often, yes. You’re close enough to the transmitter that a loft can pick up a usable signal, though foil-backed insulation and nearby trees still spoil some. Our engineer tests the loft with a meter before suggesting it.
Often yes, because Bluebell Hill is close. We test first.
Yes, for homes and shops, set up on your phone.
Yes. Give us the tenant’s number and we will arrange access directly, find and fix the fault and send you a short written note of what we did and what it cost.
Damp, salty air gets into unsealed connectors and corrodes them, so the picture slowly breaks up. We fit sealed compression connectors that keep the moisture out.
