Reliable TV Reception for Your Home
I provide professional TV aerial installation and repair services across the West Lancashire and Merseyside areas. Whether you need a complete new aerial installation, an additional TV point, help with poor or breaking-up reception, or an old aerial removed, I can help.
Every property is different, so I use professional signal-testing equipment (Rover Tab5) to check both signal strength and quality and make sure the right equipment is used for your location.
The Right Aerial for Your Property
I supply and install TV aerials to suit your property, location and reception requirements.
I offer three installation options to suit different properties and budgets:
Budget Installation
Standard Installation
Premium Installation
Every installation is assessed individually. Using professional signal-testing equipment, I check both signal strength and quality before recommending the most suitable aerial and mounting arrangement.

Quality Materials, Built to Last
All our TV aerial installations use heavy-duty 1¼-inch aluminium alloy masts, providing excellent strength and durability. Unlike cheaper steel masts, aluminium won't rust. We also use galvanised steel chimney and wall brackets to help protect against corrosion. Wall brackets are securely fixed into solid brickwork, never wooden fascia boards, providing a strong, stable and long-lasting installation.
We use trusted professional aerial brands, including Antiference, Fracarro and Blake, carefully selecting the most suitable aerial for your property and local reception conditions.
Budget Installation
Suitable for properties in good reception areas. A 12-element TV aerial is fitted to a heavy-duty 1¼" rust-resistant aluminium alloy mast up to 4ft in length, securely mounted using a galvanised chimney or wall bracket, with new coaxial cable run to your chosen TV location.
Standard Installation
Suitable for properties with average to good TV reception. A quality log-periodic or Yagi TV aerial is fitted to a heavy-duty 1¼" rust-resistant aluminium alloy mast up to 4ft in length, securely mounted using a suitable galvanised chimney or wall bracket, with new coaxial cable run to your chosen TV location.
Premium Installation
Suitable for properties in weaker reception areas where a higher-gain aerial may be required. A high-gain TV aerial is fitted to a heavy-duty 1¼" rust-resistant aluminium alloy mast up to 6ft in length, securely mounted using an 8" cradle chimney bracket or 9" × 9" wall bracket, with new coaxial cable run to your chosen TV location.
LOFT AERIAL INSTALLATIONS & NEW-BUILD HOMES
Many new-build homes have TV points and coaxial cabling already installed, but no aerial connected. Pegasus Aerials can install a suitable aerial and connect it to the existing TV distribution system.
Where signal strength and quality allow, a loft aerial offers a neat, discreet alternative to an outdoor installation.
Using professional signal-testing equipment, I assess reception and determine whether a passive splitter is sufficient or a distribution amplifier is required to supply multiple TVs. If loft reception is unsuitable, I'll recommend an external aerial instead.
TV Aerial Repairs & Additional Services
Additional TV Points
Want to watch Freeview in another room? Additional TV points can be installed in bedrooms, kitchens, conservatories and other rooms around your home.
I will first test the strength and quality of your existing TV signal. Wherever possible, I use your existing aerial system rather than fitting another aerial unnecessarily. Depending on the signal available, additional points can be supplied using a suitable splitter or masthead amplifier.
Aerial Repairs
If your TV picture is breaking up, freezing or showing “no signal”, it doesn’t necessarily mean you need a completely new installation. I can test your existing aerial system to identify the cause of the problem and recommend the most suitable repair.
Often the solution is simply to replace a damaged or unsuitable aerial and/or coaxial cable while retaining any existing equipment that is still in good condition.
For example, in the installation pictured, the chimney lashing is still serviceable, so the mast, aerial and cable could be replaced without the need to replace the complete installation. Signal strength and quality are checked.
Old & Unsafe Aerial Removal
I can safely remove unwanted aerials, masts, brackets and redundant cabling, or replace only the parts that are no longer serviceable. Where existing brackets and fixings remain sound, these can often be retained, keeping unnecessary replacement work to a minimum.
If an aerial has become loose or has fallen following high winds, I can assess the installation and advise whether repair, replacement or complete removal is the most suitable option.
BIRD SPIKES FOR TV AERIALS
Birds perching on TV aerials can cause unwanted mess on roofs, patios, conservatories and vehicles below. Plastic bird spikes can be fitted to aerials to discourage birds from landing without affecting TV reception.
They can be fitted as part of a new aerial installation or added to many existing aerials. I use purpose-made plastic bird spikes, securely fitted to the aerial where required.
