About East London Aerials & Satellites

Established 1998. £5m public liability insurance. Repairs from £99.

Since 1998aerials, dishes and CCTV

A local firm that does one job well

East London Aerials & Satellites started in 1998, when most homes still had an analogue aerial and a set-top box was something new. Since then we have seen the switch to digital, the arrival of HD and Freesat, the 4G and 5G filter era and now Starlink. The roofs stay the same, though. Victorian chimneys, 1930s semis, converted houses and tower blocks each need a slightly different approach, and that local knowledge is what we bring.

We are not tied to any TV provider or equipment maker. That means we can tell you honestly whether you need a new aerial, a simple cable repair, or nothing at all, because your TV works perfectly well over broadband.

Two teams, one company

Our aerials team handles TV aerials, Freeview and Freesat, satellite dishes, Starlink, TV wall mounting, communal systems and audio visual work. Call them on 020 8226 4596.

Our East London CCTV team fits and repairs camera systems and video doorbells for homes and businesses, including Hikvision, Dahua, Ring and Ezviz kit. Their direct line is 020 8226 4914.

How a job runs with us

  1. You get a person, not a call centre. Ring or WhatsApp and you talk to someone who knows aerials and cameras.
  2. A photo often gives you a price. Send a picture of the aerial, dish or wall and we can usually tell you what is needed before anyone visits.
  3. The engineer explains first. Nothing is fitted or replaced until you know what it is and what it costs.
  4. We test it with you. Every channel, camera or screen is checked in front of you before we leave.

The work we take on

Most days are a mix of aerial repairs, new aerials and satellite dishes, with TV wall mounting and extra TV points in between. We put up Starlink dishes on chimneys, gables and garden offices, and fit CCTV to front doors, side passages and shop fronts.

For landlords and managing agents we install and maintain communal aerial and satellite systems. For homes and businesses we wire screens and sound, from a kitchen speaker pair to a meeting room display. After storms we fix damaged aerials and masts, often the same day.

High or awkward roofs don't put us off. Tall chimneys and three-storey town houses are routine for our special-heights engineers.

Questions people ask about us

If yours isn’t here, call or WhatsApp and ask. Advice is free.

Are you insured to work on my roof?

Yes. We carry £5 million public liability insurance, and we are happy to show the certificate to you, your landlord or your managing agent before we start.

Are you tied to Sky, Virgin or any equipment brand?

No. We are independent, so we recommend whatever suits your home and budget, whether that is Freeview, Freesat, a Sky dish, Starlink or a broadband TV box that needs no aerial at all.

Do you work for landlords, agents and businesses?

Yes. Alongside homes we look after communal aerial and satellite systems in blocks of flats, CCTV for shops and offices, and screens and sound for meeting rooms and hospitality.
