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 visited to resolve a break in a freeview signal between the aerial and the distribution unit. David quickly found and resolved the problem, and tested all the points successfully. He prompt, efficient and friendly. I would highly recommend him.

David replaced a rooftop aerial and the related cables. He was efficient, knowledgeable and friendly - he cared about the job - and his charges are reasonable. In addition, he took his shoes off before coming in the house, patiently answered my incessant questions and even cleared the roof gutter whilst he was up there! I would have no hesitation in using David again or recommending him.

Old fashioned service combined with modern day technology. David knows what he is doing, cares about what he is doing and did a fantastic job for us. He resolved the reason for a poor sky signal and put right a previous engineers work, quickly and efficiently. Also how many tradesmen nowadays take off their shoes when they come into your home?? - David did, which was a pleasant surprise.

Following sudden problems arising with my freeview and direct aerial tv services I called in David English. Our aerial set up is somewhat complicated in that we have a large tv aerial and satellite dish distribution box which serves my flat and two others above me in the same building. It formerly served more flats but following ownership changes it was reduced to just the three flats. As I have responsibility for the service to all the flats it was essential to get a good repair for everybody. David arrived on the specified time, identified the problem ( a failed amplifier ), offered a cheap solution of opting out of the satellite part of the set up as no one used it but as we wished to future proof in case anyone eventually chooses satellite services he did a temporary work around giving everyone good aerial service and returned later to fit a new amp having given advance clear estimate of cost. David is very polite and professional and him and his assistant were always removing shoes when entering the interior of the house. I would emphatically recommend the services of David's company to anyone needing tv aerial works of any kind.

David arrived on time, and figured my cat6 cabling problem out in no time at all. Having lived with a TV with sound cutting out for a month, and another electrician failing to identify the problem, I was relieved to discover David who fixed the problem at very reasonable cost.

Mr English and his assistant came on the day he promised having given us a call the day before to give us a time. He took great care to check out what we wanted offering a couple of helpful options. The location of the cable was not straightforward and required clearing of some ivy. It was fitted neatly and securely. He then set up our televisions linking in to our internet. All this was done with great care and good humour. We would definitely recommend him.

David did a brilliant job: he took down the wonky old aerial attached to the front of the house and neatly removed its unsightly cable threaded under the window sill, replacing it with a modern aerial attached to the chimney and running its cable discreetly behind our drainpipe and into the sitting room out of sight. He re-tuned the TV and PVR, made sure the Fire stick was working, and even tidied up the mess of cabling at the back of all the equipment. He worked quickly and efficiently, was pleasant and helpful, and was also great at keeping me informed - he phoned to change the scheduled date because of predicted bad weather, but was able to do the job that day instead. I can't really comment on value for money, as I didn't get any other quotations for the job - what I'd read on Which? Local convinced me that I didn't want anyone else to do the work, and I'm very glad I made that decision.

David undertook a replacement of our old aerial with a new digital aerial and associated re-wiring and the TV is working better than it has in years, clear defined picture and brilliant reception. David quoted quickly and clearly, came when he said he would and undertook the work with proficient care and attention to detail, brilliant service well executed. His mobile number is now firmly in my phone directory and will be in others phones, as I recommend him and they do too!

I used David to sort out the internet service in one of my properties and the Aerial TV point in my home . He is very knowledgeable, careful and did an excellent job over 2 visits . My tenants are delighted with the result especially as they are so dependent on the Internet with COVID 19, he also dealt with an issue at my home with a TV aerial point . I couldn’t have asked for a more efficient and professional service and would highly recommend him .

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.

David replaced our old tv aerial. He turned up at the agreed time and was very careful in taking ladders through the house to access the roof. The work was carried out quickly and efficiently and to the agreed price. David also helped out with a couple of technical tips to make using the TV easier. We were impressed with David’s work and his pleasant and helpful manner - his customers service was excellent. I can strongly recommend David English Installations.

They sorted out a problem with there being no signal on one of my satellite cables. The price was reasonable, especially as he spent time to give me much useful advice. He arrived when he had said he would, having phoned me to to say he was on his way. David is a pleasure to deal with and I would cheerfully use him again.
