TV says “No signal” in Aldgate

Every channel shows “No signal”. Most often a cable has come loose, been damaged, or let water into a connector. Less often the aerial itself has failed or come down. We test from the TV back to the aerial and fix the break.

Poor Freeview reception in Aldgate

Some Freeview channels have gone after a retune, or the picture is weak on HD channels. The usual causes are an old, badly aimed or blocked aerial, or a failed amplifier. We measure every channel with a meter before changing anything.

In AldgateIf you’ve lost Freeview in Aldgate after a new building went up, the tower may be bouncing the signal. Retuning won’t fix that. The aerial needs re-aiming, or moving to another part of the roof, which we can check with a meter.

Pixelated or freezing picture in Aldgate

The picture freezes, breaks into blocks or the sound drops out. Typical causes are a corroded joint, an aerial moving in the wind, or interference from a nearby phone mast. We find the cause and fix it, usually in one visit.

Aerial repairs around Aldgate

In E1 we spend much of our time on shared systems. A warehouse conversion in Wapping or a block in Stepney might have one aerial feeding thirty flats, and when an amplifier fails, everyone loses channels at once. In Spitalfields’ Georgian houses, it is usually old cable hidden behind panelling.

Our engineers carry out TV aerial repairs in Spitalfields, Whitechapel, Wapping, Shadwell, Stepney and the streets around Brick Lane every week. Aldgate is about 6 miles from the Crystal Palace transmitter, which sends Freeview to most of London, so we aim and test every repaired aerial for that distance.

Aerial repair questions from Aldgate

If yours isn't here, call or WhatsApp us. Advice is free.

Can you repair the communal aerial in my block?

Yes, with the managing agent’s go-ahead. We trace the fault, fix it and give them a short report.

Can you repair a TV aerial in a Spitalfields Georgian house?

Yes. Many have loft aerials or cable hidden behind panelling. We trace faults with a meter and lift as little as possible, so period features are left as they were.

My Wapping warehouse flat lost Freeview. Is it my fault or the building’s?

If neighbours on your floor have lost it too, it is the building’s communal system. If only you have, it is your socket or flat cable. We can tell which in minutes.

Do you work in the estate blocks in Stepney and Shadwell?

Yes. We repair communal aerials for housing associations and managing agents there, and individual faults in tenants’ flats where the landlord allows.

How much does an aerial repair in E1 cost?

From £99 for most faults in a single home. Communal repairs are quoted to the managing agent once we have found the fault.

Can a new City tower really affect my TV in Whitechapel?

It can. Tall glass buildings reflect the signal, so your aerial gets two copies slightly apart, and the picture blocks up. A better-aimed or more directional aerial usually sorts it out.

Quickest way to a fix
