I needed an aerial so I could watch my television. I rang Aerial Services, they were polite and helpful on the phone and they gave me a quote. I was given a time slot for the job. The man arrived at the start of this time slot, and put up my aerial without fuss. At the last minute I decided to have a connection to it from my bedroom as well, so this was done, and the extra I was charged was very reasonable. So I would like to thank the other people who recommended this trader, thus enabling me to have this job done at a very reasonable price.

On contacting his company I was told they provide free estimates. When Paul arrived he looked around the house and said he needed to speak to his boss re solutions (outside). He came back in and suggested he try an Amplifier, but said it was expensive -

Dear SR2, I can only offer my sincere apologies and reiterate what I said to David regarding Paul's attitude. Employing Paul was without doubt the biggest single mistake we ever made during my 15 years at Aerial Services and I still recall the sense of relief I felt when he left. It was a dreadful error which cost us dearly in many ways. His probationary period was cut short and he was duly dismissed as soon as we became aware of his dreadful attitude which he concealed from us. Yours sincerely, Jon Peacock

Took a couple of days to respond to my emailed enquiry, but were very good after that. When their engineer was running late they rang to let me know. The engineer was polite and informative.

The engineer was polite and friendly and explained how the new aerial can be fixed so that its mostly concealed in the cupboard behind the room. He fixed the aerial quickly, tuned our new tv and made sure it was working properly before he left. very good service!

What a disappointment. Having read great reviews I booked a satellite dish installation. Frank was helpful and very professional and as I explained in detail what I needed he gave me a fair quotation which I accepted. The engineer, Paul, was not in a good mood and as he later admitted he doesn't like working on Saturdays. And he made sure he made that clear. As he arrived he immediately said he did not have the right parts for the job and that I should have arranged for a parking permits for him.All with an attitude which can only defined as hostile. After an upwards price revision the missing parts appeared (even though the initial quotation did include also what he claimed was missing) and he was able to complete the installation. He did not stop moaning for a moment and when I asked him to drill the front wall from the outside he preferred to drill it from the inside out resulting in massive damage to the front wall bricks which he tried to fix with some sealant. All in all a very distressing experience which I would have rather avoided.

Dear David I can only apologize for your experience. Paul was without doubt the worst engineer ever to have worked at Aerial Services in our entire 45 years of trading. Regrettably he worked for us for a few months in 2010 but this ended suddenly when we took the decision to cut short his probationary period. His attitude and general approach to his job were awful but he disguised this very well in the office so it took us a while to discover the extent of his behaviour. Since Paul's departure we have seriously reviewed our process of employing new engineers to avoid making such a mistake in the future. Yours sincerely, Jon Peacock

All I wanted was a feed from the roof aerial to a second TV. I tried two Which? Local-recommended firms, both of whom said the roof was too high for them. So I used another local (but not listed as recommended) firm instead. They botched the job, resulting in the picture pixillating, or even cutting out completely. The installers repeatedly insisted there was nothing wrong with the installation, so I decided to try Aerial Services. Although by no means the nearest, I chose them because they had built up a good portfolio of positive Which? reviews. Within little more that an hour of the arrival of two of their engineers,, they had put right the misaligned aerial and a couple of other installation defects they found on the roof, removed an unnecessary booster, and had diagnosed and replaced a damaged wall socket. This last was almost certainly the major cause of the problems with the picture. I found their service highly professional, and very reasonably priced. I strongly recommend them.

I phoned them this morning they were able to come over this afternoon. They arrived on time. Took their shoes off without having to be asked, were polite friendly and tidy. I was quoted a price and at the end of the job was told it would be less as it hadn't taken as long as expected. Great service. Would deffinatley use them again and have no hesitation in recommending them.

Secondary review from mascot - Used originally in 20006 to install digital aerial. Skilfully set up and produces excellent quality pictures. Used again in July this year to install a Freesat dish up high on the roof and out of sight, unlike the cheaper big name retailers who all wanted to slap in on a wall no more than 10 metres above ground where it would have looked incredibly ugly.

Needed to get my aerial re-attached to the chimney - so not too complicated a job. They were happy to come and do the job without having to arrange an estimate first (very handy as I work full time). Turned up on time at 8am (again very handy), was efficient and checked that all was working well before finished. Very polite as well. The price that they charged was reasonable.
