About

My name is David English I have over 20 years experience in this industry. I'm a very hard working trustworthy person and I would treat your property with the same respect that I would my own home.
Most of my work comes from word of mouth and I think that says a lot.
The main services that I provide are the installation of TV aerials and satellite dishes for Freeview and satellite TV (Sky and Freesat)
Before I worked in this industry I worked in the building trade, during this time I picked up a Lot of tips from the trade. This has helped me in many aspects of the services that I offer. Including the demand for people wanting their flat screen TVs hung on the wall, Cables discreetly hidden in the walls and cables put under the floorboards and so on.
Some of the other services that I offer include installing telephone, CAT5 , CAT6 data points.
Installing all your media and data cables during the first fix of your refurbishment then doing the final fix and a signal test at the end of the refurbishment.

What a treasure! I found David English based on the reviews on here after I lost all tv reception. David had had a cancellation that morning and so called round straightaway. He diagnosed the problem quickly and, when he was not able to fix it straightaway (as it involved going on the roof and the slates were slippery that day as it was raining), he called round later that day to fix a temporary aerial in place. Now the problem is all sorted - David checked it was all working as it should (and I now have better reception than before). It is a very neat job and a good price. David always turned up promptly, was easy to communicate with and was a pleasure to deal with - as one of the other reviewers here says, honest and professional. I would have no hesitation in recommending his service to others.

I was amazed with the professionalism of this gentleman, he explained everything that needed doing and why. He was very customer focused and addressed all my concerns/questions that I could understand and was jargon free. His pricing is fare compared to another company that I originally had to do the work and was charging way over the market price and was quite dubious and I had recently learned investigated by the bbc. Mr English is a dying breed of Tradesperson honest and professional.

Fantastic - everything one would want: punctual, polite, very knowledgeable, tidy and ultimately sorted out our satellite dish issues seamlessly. Top-notch!

I asked David to come and diagnose our bad digital TV reception. He was very helpful, punctual and tidy and clearly explained what our options were for fixing things. In the end we decided to install a new aerial and this was done immediately, and he even tidied up some old cables at the front of our house. I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone else.

David has done 3 jobs for me over the last couple of months and he has completed the work to a high standard. He is very polite, friendly and professional and he responded quickly to the work we required. He has come on time and has repositioned our neighbours sat dish which was affected by our building work and neatly installed a new aerial & sockets in front and rear rooms.

While gardening we managed to cut the satellite cable leading to the TV. I found David on Which Local and he lived up to all of the great recommendations. He and Alfie came the same day I rang, promptly at the time he arranged, and fixed it quickly and competently, even tidying up one of the other wires on the front of the house which was also at risk of being hacked! I am delighted to recommend him !

I contacted David because of the reviews on Whichlocal and was not disappointed. He fitted us a new tv aerial (for freeview) because our digital signal was a bit patchy. Since then we have had perfect reception. He and Alf were courteous and careful not to make any mess despite it being a showery day. I would happily recommend them.

Had David in today to replace my old aerial, which had just about given up. Before installing the new one, he thoroughly tested the old one to see if it could be repaired - I don't think many other installers would have done that! David then went on to explain what he intended to do and efficiently and expertly installed the new aerial. He then cleaned up and left the garden tidy taking away my old aerial. I would definitely use David again and I can't recommend him highly enough...!
