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.

The team (2 persons) arrived as agreed and got on with the work. Everything was agreed with me before they continued. The work was largely external but was carried out in a professional manner. When inside they always removed their shoes. The installation works well and is guaranteed. All old materials were removed from the premises. Very nice people good work

I had an issue with a TV connection. I rang David and he responded very quickly. He arrived when he said he would. He diagnosed the issue within a short space of time. He installed an additional aerial cable, leaving everything clean and tidy. It's exactly what one hopes for in terms of speed, efficiency and service. David is knowledgeable and has a really good attitude. Highly recommend.

It's not the first time that David carries out the job for me as I have got a few properties in London and every time David takes the job seriously, responsibly and completes it fast. In my view, he is the best and trustworthy specialist who would solve any puzzle left by other incompetent "engineers". He values your time as well and is always arrives at the time you expect him. He is a busy man and it's hard to get hold of him, but be patient and you will be rewarded.

I knew from my first approach that David English would be efficient and businesslike. He and his partner came as arranged and were both pleasant and helpful in putting a new aerial on my roof. They left no mess and removed the old aerial and cabling

David, came highly recommended through a good friend of mine. We had a problem with our BT boosters (given the weak internet signal in our house). You might say: easy problem to solve. Well, we had already spent £180 previously with another company and they had come in twice and still not been able to solve it. He was extremely helpful. Came in and problem sorted in less than an hour. I would not hesitate to contact again should I have any further needs with aerial/TV etc Dom

David is a good communicator and acts promptly. He came round to check and install an aerial for my new TV. He is pro-active and also open to suggestions, always considering what is the best for the customer. A fast and tidy worker with minimal disruption on site. I would thoroughly recommend David and have no hesitation in asking for his services again.

This is a long due review for a job David completed at my house in January 2018. I needed to have: - a satellite dish re-positioned - aerial connection to be checked to get BT TV - various sockets tested He was very efficient and thorough in explaining how my connections worked. He even dropped me at home a few days later some extra connectors I needed. Extremely professional, first class service at a very reasonable price!

David is extremely efficient, he responded to my message very quickly. He managed to work around my time schedule, he arrived promptly accessed the job and got on with it, I am so pleased he not only fitted an aerial he also reinstalled both tv’s. The cost was as estimated and the work came with a five year guarantee. He is very professional and a lovely guy he left the place neat and tidy and his work was to the highest quality, I would highly recommend him, and I already have.

David, came highly recommended through my business partner. He came at the start of my renovation installed all the cables lasing with builders and electricians on site. He Installed all the equipment really neatly in a hub cupboard with no hassle at all. When we were ready for him he came back mounted the tv's with 4k picture quality sorted all the Sonos and WiFi out. Everything worked perfectly, would thoroughly recommend him. Thanks David.

David and his colleague advised me on what was needed and then installed a new aerial. He took down my old aerial, fixed my phone point and took down an old cable and disc as well. They arrived on time, worked fast, were extremely pleasant, and charged what was quoted as well as working cleanly and neatly. I am delighted with the work and I would highly recommend.

We had an old aerial that had come loose removed and a new one installed. Right from the initial first contact David very promptly sent an estimate and said when he could come and there was excellent communication as to his arrival time. He explained exactly and very clearly what had happened to the old aerial and clearly explained possible options. The whole work was undertaken with great care and attention.

If your looking for someone to analyse reception issues, install aerials etc look no further than David English. David recently installed a new aerial for me which was required following the channel changes introduced in March this year. In additionto to being both personable and knowdgeable I was struck by David’s attention to detail and the tidyness of his work. His prices were also very reasonable. I would definitely use David again and recommend him without hesitation to others.

So refreshing to talk to David. He said he could do the job & fit into our tight schedule. Arrived on time, looked the job over & discussed possible ways of bringing arial cable into the house into 3 points. Job done incredibly neatly, considerate to those around him, nothing too much trouble. I’d definitely recommend him.

The 2 previous call out engineers failed to find the problem. David did. Quickly, logically and pleasantly. I can now watch and enjoy stable catch-up programmes etc on wifi. His charge is reasonable and his invoice says he makes a donation from it to a cancer research charity.

My enquiry following loss of TV signal was answered and an estimate of possible cost provided. David came, tested the signal confirming the need for aerial replacement, carried out the work, tested the work and even rigged up my Fire stick. This was all done during this heat wave!!! The work is guaranteed. His prompt attention and courteous manner is refreshing.

I can honestly say I would recommend David - literally from the rooftop! I needed an new aerial and some new points. From the minute I spoke to David, I somehow knew he was totally trustworthy and had every confidence in him doing an excellent job and that's exactly what he did at a very reasonable price. He installed a new aerial, removing all the old cable and replacing it all so discreetly that it was completely out of sight. He re-tuned everything, taking his time and ensured all was working properly before leaving. He is the most professional, friendly and nicest guy you would meet who seems passionate about his work and standard of workmanship. A pleasure to have around and I will definitely be recommending him to anyone who has any aerial problems.

David replaced my TV aerial and carried out signal diagnosis to ensure I could receive the best TV reception for my area. He responded quickly to my initial request, provided a fair quote and communicated well throughout the process. He arrived on time and completed the work efficiently. The job was also completed in time for the World Cup, thus ensuring peace in this household. Highly recommended.
