TV Aerial Installation


Earl Aelfheah

Recommended Posts

Hi


Last week I had a new aerial fitted will cables each side of the house. I ended up using www.nunheadaerials.co.uk. He was pleasant, knew what he was doing, turned up on time, his work was careful and neat and cheaper than any other quote I got. He has been working in this area for a long time and relies upon word of mouth. Unlike all the others he did't try to sell me stuff I didn't need.


I was planning to post a recommendation for him in any case, your post was a good reminder.


Highly recommended and nice bloke.

Hi!


I am moving into East Dulwich soon and need to install a new TV aerial for Freeview.


I have found the recommendation for www.nunheadaerials.co.uk here, but their web site address seems to not work!


Anyone either know how to get hold of www.nunheadaerials.co.uk or have another recommendation for this installation work?


Vic :)

I recently used Aerial Services, based in Vauxhall.

www.aerialservices.co.uk


I hadn't had a TV for 4 years as the reception was so ropey it wasn't worth bothering with.

They were excellent - on time, knowledgable and got the job done.

They weren't cheap, but were clear about their pricing.

I used Bruce Berry as the way he described how he was going to install the digital and FM aerial to quite a few rooms in our house was much cleaner than anybody else who had quoted for us. He suggested what we wanted to hear like having cabling running down in the cellar and going up to the reception rooms from below so that no cabling would be visible inside the rooms.


Well when he came to do the job he had forgotten all that he said he was going to do and the type of cabling he was going to use. I had to do part of the job myself (the cabling in the cellar going up to replace the previous cabling of the analogue cables). The outside cabling is not fixed on the roof and is quite visible on the outside when it was going to run along side the guttering. Some cables are put together with tape on the outside as running too short. We have a mixture of black and brown cables. Time wise both my husband and I became very involved when we realised nothing was going to plan. He forgot all he said. We expected the job to take one day. It lasted almost a week. I had to go and buy missing parts to try to speed up the job.


The good side is that all is working fine and he did accept the notes I took down when he first came. He charged more than he quoted for as he said he forgot to include some items but that was not too much.


Still I would recommend him for simple jobs. For a bit more complex jobs you need to double check when he starts that he remembers how he agreed to do the job and check that he is doing it.

On Monday 13/05/13, we had problems with our Freesat TV signal. Checked the EDF and found several recommendations for Paul of NUNHEAD AERIALS.I phoned Paul and left a voicemail message, Paul phoned back a couple of hours later and booked a call the next day between 11:00 and 13:00. Paul arrived at about 12:15,checked the Freesat box and aerial and diagnosed a cable fault from the aerial. Paul repaired the fault in in about fifteen minutes, checked the system which is now working perfectly.

When completed I asked the cost. I had too ask twice it was so reasonable, so cheap in fact that I paid him double the fee he requested.

If you want the best in aerial installations and repairs, from a very pleasant, friendly and helpful guy, do not hesitate to contact Paul at NUNHEAD AERIALS. I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I HAVE NO CONNECTION WHATSOEVER TO NUNHEAD AERIALS.

FOUND ON EDF.

Just wanted to add that I phoned Paul at Nunhead Aerials today, having not much clue what I needed in order to get my new kitchen TV working. He came round to have a look and sorted it all there and then. Charged less than I was expecting to (although I didn't really know what I was expecting - as I said, clueless!)

Great service. Very pleased.

    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
    • Since I am of a certain vintage now, not sure if what I am going to suggest is even still around but here goes… use to be able to buy “dummy/mock papers on line and also had mini synopsis of Shakespeare plays specifically covering students wanting to gain a better understanding of play before taking mocks/ exams. Only know this as many many moons ago, struggled with English Literature and Language and this was the avenue-my parents went down. Also was at this point in my life, educated abroad as part of my fathers job.  
    • Love your comment about “shoehorned” - put a smile on my face..! As for comment about “Little Waitrose” ummmm - never really thought about it. Personally, could not care less. But guess Sainsbury Local and Tesco Express are to you more acceptable.. Ultimately, when I think about it, I actually don’t care what they call themselves - been lured by partially branding and partially convenience and what they offer in groceries.
