Frequently Asked Questions

TV signal loss can result from several factors including damaged aerials, loose or faulty cables, interference from nearby electronics, or adverse weather conditions. Environmental changes such as new buildings or trees can also block or reflect signals, degrading reception quality over time.

Most modern TVs have a built-in signal strength meter. You can access it through the TV's settings or tuning menu. Look for terms like 'Signal Strength' or 'Signal Quality.' These readings can help determine if the aerial is delivering adequate reception or if there's a potential fault in the system.

Pixelation or freezing on digital TV is usually caused by a weak or unstable signal. This can occur due to misaligned aerials, damaged cables, or interference from electrical devices. Weather conditions and low-quality splitters can also introduce problems that affect signal consistency.

Signal strength can often be improved by installing an aerial in a higher position, using a signal amplifier, or replacing old or damaged cables. A professional installer can test your reception and recommend tailored solutions such as distribution amplifiers or repositioning the aerial for optimal performance.

Losing Freeview channels is often linked to poor or unstable signals, outdated TV firmware, or interference. Retuning your TV might help, but if channels regularly disappear, it's likely a sign of a reception issue that may require aerial adjustment, cable checks, or signal amplification.

Local Expertise

For strong, reliable TV reception in Stevenage, correct aerial choice and alignment are key. The town is primarily served by the Sandy Heath main transmitter, with many households also choosing Crystal Palace for London regional channels. In fringe spots to the south, the Hertford relay can influence signal planning, so precise setup matters to avoid dropouts and pixelation.

Local terrain and streetscapes can challenge reception: mature trees around Old Town and Fairlands Valley Park, taller blocks in the town centre and Chells, and undulating ground towards Knebworth and Walkern can all cause reflections or weak signals. We tailor aerial height, mounting, and cabling to overcome these issues, whether you’re near Great Ashby, Symonds Green, or along the A1(M) corridor.

Our engineers provide daily coverage in and around Stevenage, Hitchin, Letchworth Garden City, Welwyn Garden City and beyond. Services include aerial installation, repairs, upgrades, Freeview retuning, satellite dish installation, tv wall mounting and multi-room setups. We’ll check line-of-sight to Sandy Heath or Crystal Palace, optimize your equipment, and tidy all wiring for a neat finish.
