Freesat, Skyand TV from abroad
Every satellite job in Paddock Wood
New dishes, repairs, Freesat, Sky and channels from abroad, all from the same Paddock Wood engineers.
Freesat in Paddock Wood
Over 170 channels, including the main ones in HD, with no monthly bill. It uses the same satellites as Sky, so an old Sky dish can often be reused.
What we doWe check or fit the dish, connect a Freesat recorder or the Freesat tuner inside your TV, then sort the channel list and series links.
Sky dishes in Paddock Wood
Sky Q still runs from a dish in millions of homes. Moving, replacing or adding a box all need the dish and LNB set up correctly.
What we doWe move and replace Sky dishes, fit wideband LNBs for Sky Q and run cable for extra mini boxes.
Repairs and realignment in Paddock Wood
A dish knocked a fraction of a degree out of line, a failing LNB or a wet cable will all cause “no satellite signal” messages.
What we doWe test the dish, LNB, cable and box in turn, fix only what has failed and realign the dish on a meter.
TV from abroad in Paddock Wood
Channels from Poland, Turkey, Romania, the Middle East and beyond come from satellites such as Hotbird, Türksat and Nilesat.
What we doWe fit a dish for the satellite you need, or one dish with two LNBs so you keep Freesat as well.
Multi-room and flats in Paddock Wood
One dish can feed several rooms, or a whole block of flats, so the walls aren’t covered in separate dishes.
What we doWe fit quad and octo LNBs for multi-room homes, and multi-switch systems for converted houses and blocks.
Where a dish goes in Paddock Wood
Paddock Wood is a long way from the Freeview transmitters, and many homes have weak or unreliable aerial reception. Satellite does not have that problem, and Freesat gives you all the main channels in HD.
The new estates on the edges of town often have satellite cables already fitted. We fit the dish and connect it to the existing cables.
Before you book a dish in Paddock Wood
Satellite questions we hear in Paddock Wood. Anything else, just ring.
Is Freesat a good choice in Paddock Wood?
Yes. Freeview can be weak here, while satellite is strong. Freesat has no monthly bill.
My Paddock Wood new-build has satellite cables. Can you connect a dish?
Yes. We fit the dish and test every room.
Do you fit dishes in Staplehurst and Marden?
Yes. We cover Staplehurst, Marden, Horsmonden and Brenchley.
Which way does a satellite dish point in Paddock Wood?
For Freesat and Sky, towards the Astra 2 satellites: a bearing of about 146°, which is south-east, tilted 25.9° above the horizon. Anything tall in that direction, such as a tree, a gable or the house opposite, will block it, so we check the view with a meter before fixing the bracket.
Quicker with a picture
Snap the aerial or dish from the garden, or the error on the TV, and WhatsApp it to us with your postcode. An engineer looks at it and replies with the likely fix and a price.
