In BowThe canals and parks leave parts of Bow open to the wind. After a storm, check whether your aerial is still pointing the same way as your neighbours’.
TV says “No signal” in Bow
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 Bow
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 BowIf your Freeview got worse soon after new blocks went up near Bow Roundabout, the signal may now be arriving at a different angle. We measure on the roof and re-aim or raise the aerial to get round it.
Pixelated or freezing picture in Bow
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.
Why aerials fail in Bow
Bow’s Roman Road terraces mostly have small aerials on chimney brackets, many more than 20 years old. When the picture starts to freeze, it is often the aerial’s connection box, which fills with water and corrodes. In the factory conversions, faults are usually in the riser cable or the communal amplifier.
Our engineers carry out TV aerial repairs in Roman Road, Old Ford, Mile End, Bow Quarter, Bromley-by-Bow and Fish Island every week. Bow is about 8 miles from the Crystal Palace transmitter, which sends Freeview to most of London, so we aim and test every repaired aerial for that distance.

Questions about aerial repairs in Bow
If yours isn't here, call or WhatsApp us. Advice is free.
Do I need a new aerial, or can mine be fixed?
Often the aerial is fine and just the cable or connector needs replacing. We test first and only suggest a new aerial if it is needed.
How much is an aerial repair in Bow?
From £99. Replacing a waterlogged connection box is often all a Roman Road terrace needs, and that keeps the cost down.
My Bow Quarter flat has no signal. What should I do?
Check whether your neighbours have lost theirs too. If they have, tell the managing agent, as the fault is in the communal system. If not, we can check your own sockets and cable.
Can you fix my aerial the same day in E3?
Often, yes. We are in Bow and Mile End regularly, so a morning call usually gets a visit that day.
Do you repair dishes as well as aerials in Bow?
Yes. Many Old Ford homes have both. We can realign the dish or replace its LNB while we are on the roof.
Why did my picture get worse after work near Bow Roundabout?
New blocks can push the signal round a different way. Re-aiming the aerial, or moving it to the other end of the chimney, usually brings the picture back.
