Dish removal FAQs

Do I need my dish for Sky Stream or Sky Glass?

No. Both work over broadband, so the satellite dish is no longer needed once you've switched.

Will removing the dish affect Freesat?

Yes. Freesat needs a dish, so removing it ends Freesat on that TV. Freeview through an aerial and Freely over broadband aren't affected.

Can you remove the cables as well?

Yes. We remove redundant satellite cables where they can be reached safely and fill the fixing holes.

Can you take down an old aerial at the same time?

Yes, if it's no longer needed. Tell us when you book so we can quote for both.

Do you remove dishes for landlords?

Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents and can arrange access with tenants.

How much does satellite dish removal cost?

It depends on the height and position of the dish, how many cables need removing and whether any making good is needed. You get a free, no obligation quote before any work starts.

How long does dish removal take?

Most dish removals are quick jobs completed in one visit. Removing long cable runs inside the home takes a little longer.

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.

How soon can an engineer visit?

Same-day visits for dish removals are often possible, depending on your area and engineer availability. Lines are open 8am to 9pm on weekdays and 8am to 5pm at weekends, and you can WhatsApp us any time.
