This means we are a one stop shop for buying your Sky viewing package.  We will sort out all the paperwork (new customers and existing customers).  Then once you have received your viewing card, just give us a call and we will promptly call round fit your dish, box, activate it all for you then leave you to it!

What this means for you is, if you order from us we can usually have everything up and running in approx 1 week from taking your order instructions.  If you go to Sky direct, then due to the massive popularity of their new HD platform, then you will be waiting alot longer for Sky's own installers to fit your Sky system.  Also during our visit to complete your Sky order, we will offer a free site survey and explain what we can do to enhance your Sky viewing around your home.

We are often called out to fit dishes on chimneys, etc as Sky installers cannot work over a certain height.  If Sky have refused you a package because their engineer has said there is no signal, then give us a try we can mount dishes in all kinds of locations to obtain signals.  We can also position dishes for discrete installations where regulations prevail.

The Bad and the Ugly!

Following high winds Lowton Aerials received a service call from one of our customers who's new Sky+HD package had lost signal after just being installed for only 3 weeks!

The dish pictured above may look unsightly but the original contractor (a subbie) had his reason for mounting the dish above the chimney.  Just off picture to the right is a very tall tree, the chimney is therefore the only possible mounting point, but still the dish needs be elevated to gain a good line of sight.

 On initial inspection from the ground, it seemed that the mast had been kinked by the wind adjusting the elevation angle of the dish and thus losing signal.  However once we got up on the roof it soon became obvious what the problem was.  The subcontractor had used a 'knock in' bracket that is totally unsuitable.  You can see in the above picture where the wind force had twisted the 'knock in' bracket out from the wall.  Although the chimney brickwork was sound we wouldn't expect it to stay this way for long if this bracket was left in place.

We always inspect roof area's for damage before we have set foot on them, the following 2 pictures show the roof damage that the subcontractor had caused.  When I asked the customer, he confirmed the subcontractor didn't even use a Cat ladder!

If we find existing damage we always take photo's and show them to the customer prior to starting the work.  If we find gutter or roof damage or even wasps nest, we take pictures to advise the customer of any problems.

I informed the customer that he should complain to Sky about the poor installation and roof damage.  Make no mistake Sky will not put up with shoddy installation work, the fact that the subcontractor went up on the roof without even a Cat ladder (let alone a safety harness!) would have been enough for instant dismissal!
