How Much To Repair Aerial?

csnann

Hello,
I have been having trouble with my television reception recently. It started after a thunderstorm, so I was told that the aerial might have moved a bit. As I live in a rented flat, I considered getting a signal booster to improve reception but after looking at the prices and all the cables and connectors I would need to buy, I think I might as well get someone out to fix the aerial! Can anyone tell me what kind of charge would be reasonable in the Guildford area?

We had a new one fitted last year and it was £45.00. That is in Lancashire.

You may be looking alots more if your flat is high as the price above was in a terraced house.

I live in the ground floor of a 2 storey block. I don't think it would cost more than a house - at least I hope not!

try looking in your free local papers if your in rented accomodation see if your landlord is responsible? failing that insurance cover? failing that ask around at work.

your work mates may know of somebody locally, its always hard to quote a price because we all live in different parts of the uk

unfortunately my insurance has a £100 excess and I'm hoping it won't cost as much as that! I can't think of anyone who has had an aerial fitted recently so I'll have to phone round a few companies in the morning.

We bought one recently from Wickes for £9.99. We were having our chimney repaired at the time so OH went up there and fitted it himself. I know this isn't the answer for you. My frien d had hers done 6 months ago and it cost £100. We live in Cheshire.
