Signs you need bird spikes

If any of these sound familiar, spikes are a simple, humane fix:

  • Birds sitting on your aerialThe weight of birds, and their droppings, can bend aerial elements or knock the aerial out of line. Spikes stop them landing.
  • Mess below the dish or ledgesDroppings on windows, cars, paths and windowsills. We fit spikes where the birds are perching.
  • Noise from the roofBirds gathering on chimneys, ridges and gutters. We cover the spots where they land.
  • Nesting attemptsBirds settling on ledges, signs or behind dishes. Spikes make these spots unsuitable for perching.
  • Damaged aerial cablePecked or loosened cables can affect your picture. We check and repair the cable while we're up there.

  • InspectionWe look at where birds are landing and agree what to cover.

Bird spikes FAQs

Are bird spikes humane?

Yes. Bird spikes are blunt and work by stopping birds from landing, rather than harming them.

Where can bird spikes be fitted?

Common places are TV aerials, around satellite dishes, roof edges, chimneys, window ledges, signs and gutters, where the surface is suitable.

Can birds damage my TV aerial?

Yes. Birds perching on an aerial can bend the elements or push it out of alignment, and can damage the cable. This can lead to a poor or lost picture.

Can you fit spikes at the same time as aerial work?

Yes. If we're already on the roof for an aerial or dish job, spikes can often be fitted at the same visit.

Do bird spikes need maintenance?

Very little. They're designed to stay in place for years with little or no upkeep.

How much do bird spikes cost?

It depends on how many metres need covering, the height and access, and how many locations are involved. You get a free, no obligation quote before any work starts.

Is there a call out charge?

There's no call out charge for quoted work. You get a free, no obligation quote and agree the price before any work starts.
