How much does TV aerial installation cost in Kingston upon Thames?

Usually £180 to £390 in Kingston upon Thames, from published UK cost guides, raised because fitters in London and the South East typically charge 20 to 30% more. A fitter quotes before doing any work.

What's the nearest TV transmitter to Kingston upon Thames?

The nearest main transmitter to Kingston upon Thames is Crystal Palace, about 16km to the east, carrying ITV London and BBC London. It isn't always the one your aerial should face: hills, buildings and local relay transmitters mean some homes get a better signal from another. Freeview's online checker gives the right one for your postcode.

Do I still need an aerial with Freeview being switched off?

For now, yes, if you watch Freeview. The government's preferred date to end aerial TV is 31st December 2034 and nothing changes before a decision. If your aerial works, there's no need to replace it.

Is a loft aerial as good as a roof aerial?

In strong signal areas it can be. Roof tiles and insulation weaken the signal, so in weaker areas a roof aerial is more reliable.

How long does a TV aerial last?

Often 10 to 15 years, less on the coast or in exposed spots. Corroded brackets and cable are the usual cause of a failing signal.
