TV aerial and satellite installation costs in the UK depend on the type of system, where it's being fitted, and how many TV points you need. Here's a general guide to help you budget before requesting your free quotes. A new TV aerial installation typically costs between £85 and £250 including materials and labour, with the average sitting around £150–£200 for a standard roof-mounted setup with one TV point. If you're simply replacing an existing aerial using the current cabling, it's cheaper — usually around £75–£125. Loft aerials are the most affordable option at roughly £40–£75, though they depend on having decent signal strength in your area. For each additional TV point you need in other rooms, expect to add around £80–£110. Satellite dish installation averages around £150–£250 for a standard wall-mounted dish with a single connection. If you need a twin cable setup for recording (Sky+ or Freesat+), or connections to multiple rooms, costs increase accordingly. A Freesat setup including dish, cabling and receiver box typically comes in between £150 and £300 all in.

TV wall mounting costs between £50 and £150 depending on the size of your TV, the type of bracket and the wall material. Cable management — hiding wires in trunking or behind the wall — usually adds £20–£80. If you want cables fully chased into the wall for a clean finish, expect to pay closer to £150–£225 in total. Aerial repairs — signal issues, realignment, loose connections or storm damage — typically cost £50–£100 for a straightforward fix. London and the South East prices will generally be higher across all services.

Not sure whether you need an aerial or a satellite dish? It depends on what you want to watch and where you live. Freeview works through a standard TV aerial and gives you access to over 70 free channels, including HD, with no monthly subscription. Most modern TVs have Freeview built in, so you may just need an aerial and a TV point — no set-top box required. If your signal is strong enough, a loft aerial can do the job for as little as £40–£75 fitted.

Freesat works through a satellite dish and offers over 170 free channels with no contract, including many in HD. It's a particularly good option if you live in a rural area or somewhere with poor terrestrial signal. You will need a Freesat-compatible receiver or TV, which typically costs from £100–£145 on top of the dish installation. A professional installer can advise which option suits your property and location best.
