TV Aerials Installation & Repair in Wigan
TV Aerials Wigan services from The Aerial Guys help you watch television without signal problems or missing channels. When your picture breaks up, or your aerial stops working, we come out, check the setup, and put the issue right. As a family run business with many years of experience, we understand how homes across Wigan receive their signal and what equipment works best in different areas.
When you contact us, we inspect the existing aerial, test the signal strength, and recommend the right solution. Sometimes a small repair solves the issue. In other cases, a new aerial provides stronger reception and more stable viewing.
Homes that often need TV aerial installation include:
- Modern New-Build Houses – Many new developments rely on shared systems or weak aerials that struggle to deliver a strong Freeview signal.
- Older Brick Terraced Homes – Ageing aerial brackets and worn cables can reduce reception across several rooms.
- Converted Loft Apartments – Signal can weaken when aerial cables run long distances through converted roof spaces.
- Rural Edge Properties – Homes near the outskirts of Wigan often need higher-gain aerials to capture transmitters clearly.
- Houses With Tree Obstruction – Large trees near the roofline sometimes block signal paths and require aerial repositioning.
With the right equipment and correct positioning, we help restore clear TV reception across your home.
Satellite Installation & Repair in Wigan
Satellite installation Wigan services from The Aerial Guys give you access to reliable satellite television across Wigan and surrounding areas. If your dish has moved in the wind, your signal disappears during bad weather, or you want a new satellite system installed, we can help. We check alignment, replace faulty components, and install new equipment where needed.
Every installation begins with a signal test and a quick survey of the building. From there we decide the best mounting position for clear satellite reception. We install new systems, adjust existing dishes, and repair damaged connections.
Types of satellite dish systems we work with include:
- Standard Sky Satellite Dish – A widely used system designed to receive UK satellite broadcasts such as Sky channels.
- Freesat Dish Systems – A dish setup that allows access to subscription-free satellite television through compatible receivers.
- Motorised Satellite Dish – A rotating dish that tracks multiple satellites so you can receive broadcasts from several countries.
- Flat Panel Satellite Antenna – A discreet alternative to traditional dishes often used where appearance matters.
- Multi-LNB Dish Systems – A dish fitted with multiple outputs so several televisions can receive satellite channels.
With careful alignment and correct cabling, we make sure your satellite signal remains steady.
Freeview Installation in Wigan
Freeview installation in Wigan gives you access to dozens of television channels without monthly subscription fees. At The Aerial Guys, we install Freeview systems that deliver strong reception across homes throughout Wigan. If you struggle with missing channels or weak signals, we test the aerial and install equipment that improves your viewing.
Our approach stays simple. We check transmitter direction, measure signal levels, and install the right aerial or amplifier when needed. This ensures your television receives the full Freeview channel list without interruption.
Freeview services we provide include:
- Freeview Aerial Installation – We install high-quality aerials designed to capture digital television signals from local transmitters.
- Freeview Box Setup – Some televisions need a receiver box, and we connect and tune the system so channels appear correctly.
- Multi-Room Freeview Distribution – A distribution amplifier allows several rooms to receive the same Freeview signal.
- Freeview Retuning Support – When channel frequencies change, we retune televisions so channels return to your screen.
- Signal Boosting Systems – Low signal homes benefit from masthead amplifiers that strengthen incoming broadcast signals.
With the right setup in place, you can watch live television without worrying about lost channels.
Freesat Installation Wigan
Freesat installation Wigan services allow you to enjoy satellite television without ongoing subscription costs. At The Aerial Guys, we install Freesat systems that connect directly to your television or receiver box. When you want more channels than Freeview offers, Freesat becomes a reliable alternative.
We begin with a signal check and find the best position for the satellite dish. After installation, we tune the receiver and confirm that every channel appears clearly. Our aim is simple. We make sure your system works smoothly from day one.
Furniture items sometimes need to be moved during installation work, including:
- TV Cabinets – Large cabinets often block cable routes behind televisions and need to be shifted before installation.
- Corner Media Units – These units sit tight against the wall and can hide satellite cables that require access.
- Wall Display Shelves – Decorative shelving around the television area sometimes prevents safe cable routing.
- Storage Sideboards – Wide furniture pieces placed under televisions may cover connection points.
- Entertainment Units – Large units holding consoles and receivers often require temporary repositioning during setup.
Once everything sits in place again, your Freesat system runs neatly with hidden cabling.

At The Aerial Guys, we install specialist satellite systems that capture signals from different international satellites.

WiFi Installation Wigan
WiFi installation Wigan services from The Aerial Guys help improve internet coverage inside homes where signals struggle to reach every room. Thick walls, long hallways, and multiple floors often weaken wireless connections. When this happens, we install systems that strengthen and extend your home network.
Our work begins with a signal test across the property. We check where coverage drops and install equipment that spreads WiFi more evenly throughout the building. This helps devices stay connected whether you are streaming television or working online.
Common WiFi solutions we install include:
- WiFi Mesh Systems – Multiple nodes placed around the house create one seamless network with strong coverage.
- WiFi Range Extenders – These devices boost existing signals into rooms where the connection normally drops.
- Hardwired Access Points – Wired access points deliver stronger WiFi in larger homes with thick walls.
- Router Relocation – Moving the router to a better location often improves coverage across the property.
- Ethernet Network Cabling – Running network cables provides stable internet connections for TVs and consoles.
With the right setup, your internet stays reliable throughout your home.
CCTV Installation Wigan
CCTV installation Wigan services from The Aerial Guys help protect homes and small businesses across Wigan. When you want to monitor your property or deter unwanted activity, a professionally installed camera system provides peace of mind. We install modern systems that allow you to view footage from your phone or computer.
Each installation begins with a quick survey of the building. We identify entry points, outdoor areas, and blind spots where cameras work best. After installation, we set up the recording system and show you how to view footage remotely.
Types of CCTV systems we install include:

TV Wall Mounting Wigan
TV wall mounting Wigan services from The Aerial Guys help you install your television safely and neatly on the wall. When televisions sit on stands, cables often become messy and the screen takes up space. Wall mounting creates a cleaner look and improves viewing angles across the room.
Before installation, we check the wall structure, locate safe fixing points, and choose the correct bracket for the television size. We then mount the bracket, secure the screen, and hide cables where possible so the setup looks tidy.
Common television mounting styles include:
- Fixed Wall Brackets – These hold the television flat against the wall for a simple and secure installation.
- Tilt TV Brackets – Tilt brackets angle the screen slightly downward to improve viewing from seating areas.
- Full Motion TV Mounts – Adjustable arms allow the television to move left, right, or forward.
