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.

David replaced my terrestrial and satellite aerials/dishes, mounted them in a new better location, and installed 5 new TV points throughout the house. He worked quickly and effectively, and was both tidy and friendly. The charge was exactly what he had estimated, and I would unhesitatingly recommend him. The market in aerial replacement/installation is in my experience often like the Wild West, with false estimates, broken appointments, and shoddy work. I'm glad I found English Aerials!

My mother lost her TV reception last week. I telephoned Mr English on her behalf. He diagnosed the problem accurately and promptly and it was resolved the very same day. He was extremely courteous, helpful, competent and efficient and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Very reassuring to find that a completely unknown can turn out so well. David came as agreed and once I had explained my requirements he very efficiently did everything as asked. Was happy to have him in my house, he cleared up any debris and took photos of the roof aerial, before and after, so I could be assured he had carried out his work as asked. It is always good to have photos. He thoughtfully placed the new wiring from the roof into my house so I don’t have too much wiring to look at from my garden. I will be in touch with him again to sort out my TVs once I have bought a new one. Very happy to recommend.

Contacted David English on 17.03.2021,replied immediately, I needed a new aerial fitted to which David said he could try and fix or replace with a new one, very reassuring to be given 2 options, with 2 price estimates. I took the latter, David arrived on time, quickly to see what the problem was and did the work very efficiently, he did a great job. I trust David completely and would not hesitate to recommend him or if I needed him again. His work was also guaranteed for 5 years.

I couldn’t recommend David from English Installations more! He came to fix my TV aerial in my flat and fitted a new one, I couldn’t believe how quick and easy he made the whole process. He gave me every option and was very honest about what I needed to have. He also gave me a quote before he started the job based on what he thought I needed doing and completely stuck to that. He is a complete professional and clearly has years of experience. I felt at complete ease with his work ethic. An all round great guy and master of his craft. Thank you!

English Installations installed a hard-wired Wi-Fi cable to the back of the property and provided a booster for the Wi-Fi. Turned up on time and gave some excellent advice on the final solution required. Work was conducted in a quality manner and the site was left clean and tidy. Good value for money and excellent customer service provided.

David did an excellent job in installing a new TV aerial for us. He was very friendly, efficient and clearly very knowledgeable. He worked quickly and was very tidy. As well as sorting our aerial, he removed a whole load of redundant wiring from old tech which was great as everything looks much neater now. He was also able to advise us on our internet options which was greatly appreciated. Final invoice was at the lower end of the original quote. I would definitely recommend David!

I had a complete collapse of my landline, broadband and internet. David very quickly identified the problem with the outdated incoming master telephone feed, and the broken master telephone socket. He replaced the whole system, which is now functioning perfectly. I regard his charge as very reasonable in the circumstances. David was particularly careful to observe precautions regarding the Covid restrictions.
